Bartolini MK1 vs MK5 in Cort Curbow 5
มุมมอง 15K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I do side by side audio of the Active MK-1 pickup and the Passive MK-55 in my Cort Curbow 5 bass. This is recorded direct though my interface, no pre-amp. The onboard pre-amp is set flat (Center detent on Low, Mid, high). The MK-1 that cam on the bass was an active/powered pickup. The MK-5 is passive.
Bass String Comparison - DR Black Beauties vs. Ernie Ball Slinky Flats
มุมมอง 5K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I'm comparing the DR Black Beauties vs. Ernie Ball Slinky Flats. Do the Slinky Flats really sound like rounds? This was recorded direct with no pre-app or processing. This is on a Squire P-Bass (P pickup soloed with tone at 100%) with EMG-GZR (Geezer Butler Signature) pickups and Hipshot Bridge.
2005 BMW F650CS Walkaround and Info
มุมมอง 74K11 ปีที่แล้ว
A Look at my 2005 BMW F650CS. I talk about some of the features, history, and what it's like living with the bike. This bike shares the 652cc Rotax Single Cylinder motor with the F650GS and little else. It was the 1st ever belt drive bike made by BMW. The drive train is similar to the one used on the newer F800ST and F800GT models. Like many BMW models it was available in a "low" version with a...
Travis Industrial Speedway - 2005 BMW F650CS
มุมมอง 33511 ปีที่แล้ว
We were doing laps at a, as of yet undeveloped, corporate/industrial development. It's essentially a race track. Just a few passes shot with my Nokia Lumia 710. It was a balmy, early February day near Chicago in the mid to upper 40s.
BassBalls Jam
มุมมอง 33K15 ปีที่แล้ว
A jam in A minor. I'm playing my SX fretless jazz through my Ampeg BA-115. I'm running an Electro-Harmonix BassBalls as well. First I run it dry then switch the fuzz on. Sorry for the buzz. When I started playing I freaked the turtle out and he knocked his filter down.
Simandl Etude 17, Tempo di Polacca in E minor
มุมมอง 7K15 ปีที่แล้ว
Etude 17, "Tempo di Polacca in E minor" from "Thirty Etudes for the String Bass" by Franz Simandl. Played on electric bass. I'm playing a Peavey Fury II through an Ampeg BA-115
If you want to go the same direction just better quality, then MK5P is the way to go. All other MK5s are apples to oranges.
Any recommendations for upgrading Bartolini BH2? I was looking at MK5 maybe.../?
Just bought a single spark. Some good tips , thanks
Many thanks for your comments !!! I bought a 2003 second hand F650CS in NY/NY although I live in the Tropics on a 90 square-kilometers island where I can ride my bike 330 days a year. I bought in 2005 & kept it 'till 2017. My lady much preferred, as passenger, my former BMW than my current 2010 Yamaha MT03 660cc single cylinder engine which is more of a fun bike 😄😄😄
Lutite low mid sound not solid bass
Absolutely fantastic walk-through and overview! Great detailed info that is useful for those of us looking at one of these. Curious, do you still have it?
Mk1- jazz music mk5-pop music
can someone help in the demo is it the bridge version of the mk5 or the neck?
I have mk1 active pickups and sound is awesome. If you put them on sweet spot on bass and make good wood combo.. bass will sound like 💰💰💰💰
Joseph you have a genéric active preamp, MK 1 are oriental passive pickups. Put american MK and NTMB or XTC, for to upgrade you bass. The better choice from Bartolini.
@@cristianolivares6015 no my friend i check my bass pickups they work with 9v battery. They are active.. pickups have 3 wires. White for + black - , red for + battery. But you are right us barts and preamp are better. 👌🏻
@@josephzaja9210 mk1 are passive pickups
@@ranzio477 hello. i took out pickups from bass.. and as i said earlier, they have 3 terminals, 3 wires, one of which is red and goes to + from the battery because that's the only way magnets work. which means they are active. I know that the cort has mk1 and that they are passive on basses. this is either a factory error or only this bass model has such magnets.
@@josephzaja9210 mk1 are passive pups intended for use with active PREAMPS, that being said, you can also wire a bass with mk1 for no onboard preamp use, making a completely passive bass. That or buy it right from a store, like my Ibanez SR505 (only newer models), in which you can select passive/active mode (preamp). No baterry, preamp completely bypassed, and mk1 fully passive.
I'm planning to do the same upgrade but I'm really confused about the wiring - will there be need for an additional switch for series/parallel/single coil mode? (I have a Cort C5 with a Markbass onboard preamp) Also, I'm a bit worried about MK1 having 2 screw holes, while the MK5 has 3...Should I be worried?
DR strings sounds great on your P. I hear lots of buzzing on the ernie ball strings. Its best to check your neck relief/string height first.
Is it just me or does the Mk5 sound like trash in this demo?? Unexpected, but the Mk1 pickup sounds awesome here. Bass sounds out of tune on that final demo with the Mk5 man
Its just you. The MK1 is thin and brittle, the Mk5 much fuller and rounder.
@@GearHeadz101 well now I know
I don't disagree with this. The MK1s don't sound great, but they sound okay in the final demo. The MK5s do sound underwhelming overall. The MK5s are fuller for the lower strings, but not for the higher ones. I have MK1s in my Ibanez SR506 - a Korean model from 2005 - and based on this demo, I probably wouldn't go for the MK5s.
@@JeddAhyoungMK5s sound better to me.
Bartolini mk5 muy grabe
The cut is Bart is a Korean knock off. Greg verified this-
Mk1 are not active pickup!!!!!
Mk-1 was an active pickup, the next generation mk-1 was passive to this day
Mk1 on curbow is an active one
@@BryanSiahaya my friend, Bartolini don't make active pickups, and MK1 and MK2 are oriental and passive pickups, you have a active genéric preamp on board, oriental Curbow bassses don't have american Bartolini,
@cristian olivares I said that because last time I had a 5 string curbow, and the single pick up has a red wire connected to the battery (the pick up has 3 wires: white-hot, red-battery and ground). That is trully different to other bartolini on other Cort series like A, B and artist series (on these series only two wires come from the pick ups). If I can attach the picture here I'll do that😊
@@BryanSiahaya same here.. i have curbow 5 with active bart pickups.. they have red+ for battery. And sound is great on them!!
I use DR black beauties mediums and I absolutely love them! The ernie balls sound thin and hollow compared to the DR's. So for me, there is no comparison.
Nice comparison. well done. And no, the EB flats sound like flats. period. but those DR's do sound nice
1* marzo, 2021 Hola Tengo bmw f650cs scarver 2004 No arranca mi moto Cómo le puedo hacer para que arranque y funcione normal ??? SI tiene combustible SI tiene batería SI da marcha SI hace el ronroneo cuando se pone la llave en “on” NOTA.- Hace tiempo se averió el sensor de la pata lateral y el mecánico la puso directo uniendo los tres cables y desechando el sensor Gracias por tu consejo Rafa desde la 🇲🇽Ciudad de México🇲🇽 mcdm2018@gmail.com >>>
Bought my 2002 CS last week. Rode it back 250 miles (the long way!) from York to Manchester, UK. No problem holding 80mph and overall mileage was 78 per UK gallon which is around 65 per US gallon. That was with massive Krauser panniers fitted, too. This is a super single.
Just got a 2003 single spark. THANKS for all the info! I'm a beginner (at age 60!), and, so far, doesn't appear to daunting or too powerful for a noob.
Samuel Claiborne I’m in my 50s and plan to pick this bike up and learn.
Awesome review💯🏍💯🏍💯🏍💯🏍
Great bike, awful screen.
Your front turn signals are the wrong way round.
Can any one link me video how to replace the belt drive on F650CS thanks
If you were to hit the highway for a long (1000 mile) ride, how fast would you reasonably push a CS? What kind of mileage do you get? The F650GS is famous for great mileage. Is the CS as good? Great video, thanks!
Owned 2005 f650cs 7 years 47k miles.. ran it highway 75-80 mph long time knoxville to winchester, no problem, motor loved high rpm, best mpg at 5k rpm over 70mpg.
Quick question. I am thinking of buying a 2003 for Los Angeles to get around. I found your video extremely informative. But is it a pain to keep the battery on a trickle charger when I am not there? It feels I have to take apart the bike from your video.
No, Just hook up the Pig tail with the SAE connector and run it under the seat. You can see the battery tender cable under the seat if you look close in the video about 2:30. If you want to use Jumper Cable style alligator clips it will be difficult as you can't reach the positive terminal with the battery in place.
Very helpful. Thanks dude. Almost made me go with another bike because I didn't want to deal with the drama of keeping the battery charged.
All my bikes get one of these and the live on a tender when they're parked at home. www.amazon.com/Battery-Tender-081-0069-6-Terminal-Disconnect/dp/B000NCOKZQ
Thanks again. Was very helpful.
travatron4000 do u saw any video how to replace the belt drive on this BMW F650CS 2003
Ok...what screws did you use to attach the panel on the side...
I used these type of standard hardware store finishing screws: dkhstatic.blob.core.windows.net/image/500x300/AV11790_11971.gif
Cheers. I will look for some silver ones...thank you
Just about to buy one. 2005 with 47 kms. Will pick your brains once I take delivery.
es buena esta moto ????
Are you still active on here? I have some questions
Yeah, don't post much, Sold the bike a year ago. What's your question.
Another video where i have to watch somebody setting up the camera lol
what's the brand of the windshield you installed?
It is a Parabellum: parabellum.com/F650CS-Touring-Windshield-P42.aspx
Thx a bunch! Great video, btw...
Great Review! I just picked one up and as I was driving off the lot the side panel blew off. How did you attach the screws to your side panels? My stock headlight is pretty good, but would've liked to see your aftermarket HID light.Thanks for the start procedure.
+Vince Alton I just used a finishing screw and screwed those side covers onto the main panel, Like this: www.dkhardware.com/product-25678-av11790-black-8-x-1-1-4-oval-head-phillips-sheet-metal-screws-with-countersunk-washers.html?gclid=CNKdr6XS3MsCFQctaQodPbIFoA
I just got one of these from 2002. Just in case i ever need to, is there an easy way to charge the battery or jump start the bike?
+jon doe The battery is kind of tucked away. It's easiest if you get a battery tender and use the connection cable that comes with it. I eventually got the smallest form factor Shorai Lithium battery just so it was easier to get in and out.
Wozza the belt can last as long as the bike as long as it does not get damaged. They last much longer than a chain.
+travatron4000 thanks a got myself a cs650 last week and love it the engine is very smooth for a single and plenty of power . i plan to tour on her next year ,love the 650cs and found your review very helpful in my decision to get one
thinking of getting one of these bikes and i like your review very helpful ,my one concern is the belt drive is it reliable .? thanks again
you can change the headlight in about 3 minutes from under it. no need to take any screws out.
this is the dream bike i ever looking for , this bike combine all my tastes !
Sounds like lawn mower.
Do you have this bike yet? I intent to buy one here in Brazil... love this bike. Thanks. Fabio.
Very good, great bike!
Hey that was pretty badass :)
Best bike and so practical it just did not sell. Sad that there wasn't a large aftermarket for it
I see what you mean. You're right about that, i may have exaggerated. But i know for sure that if the instrument is reffered to as "String" bass, it means played mainly with a bow. If you look at scores, you can see that classical orchestra music marks the bass as "string bass" and in jazz it has a multitude of names, but never string bass.
The sustain is way too long? When you refer to the instrument as a string bass, it is assumed 99% of the time that you would be playing with a bow and with a classical discipline. I believe you assumed this would be played pizzicato or a jazz style, which is fair. But remember though, the difference between string bass and double bass/upright bass. Double bass simply being the word to describe the instrument, and upright being the term describing the technique of playing it without the bow.
@cursedswordsman I'm actually not doing a lot of muting in this one but the little I do is all left hand muting. Lightly touching the string next to the fretting finger.
Why the dislikes? This video is great! Also, can I ask you what your muting technique is?
@kabanosi Originally, that bass line was from 'Good Times' by Chic, such a tune!
I have the same bass, except the finish on mine is more red. Thing's a dream, isn't it?
WHY THERE WERE 18 DISLIKE?! HIS BASSLINE IS AWESOME!!!!
@CookyNChoco I'm playing this for my audition too! I've got the first part done slowly very slowly
