buzzard bolt-on V.S corvette nt $$ bubinga
more suitable for metal ?
i want choose more cut thru that
some stupid question but i need listen to the others opinions

thank
 
Alot of guys here like to say BOs are much suitable for metal than NTs, but I don't know about that one.

Bubinga is a growly beast, and $$ pups are very versital.

As for the Buzzard, I have no experience with that one. But I know enough about bubinga wood and how my $$ BO is. I might consider the BO $$ or maybe the LTD 2009.
 
The $$NT is a growly, very clear sounding beast o doom :) I play a $$ BO as well and an NT is currently in production for me .

check this endorsers channel, he plays the NT $$ mainly and also has clisb of the thumb and Jazzman

Corvette is safe choice if you buy it without play....I took my buzzard to the band, guitarist said the bass is not enough compare to my Thumb 6, I feel that too, buzzard sounds really great when i play it at home....

I don't have corvette but play few times in the shop, very balance,great slapping, $$ is powerful.

I will pick corvette $$.
 
The corvette %% is very, very punchy when playing slap. But then again, I am getting one, so I guess I am biased ;)
 
If you can get a Buzzard for anywhere close to the price of a $$ NT, I think you have to at least consider it. And I wouldn't really consider the $$ to be the bass of choice to "cut thru" the mix... it has a big, warm tone.

But with that said, have a look at those videos of Erlend Caspersen that ShadowKnight posted... aside from the fact that he's an absolute monster player, the $$ seems to fit very well for metal.
 
The $$ NT tone is badass, just stellar. So deep and powerful.
 
Both are good for metal, but they sound different. Both of them are good choices... The buzzard sounds more articulated, $$ is fatter.
