How do you do a search for R Bass, F Bass or A Basses?

Lol, good luck. You'll get every thread with the word bass in it!
I've tried to search for a few specific things - too many results - not enough hours

I think this is going to get moved, but do an "advanced search", and there are a lot more options. I DO really wish that we could put F Bass in quotes and search that way. The only way I've found is to use the Google thing, and it's not as specific.

Since a mod will inevitably see this post, I'll repeat.

On the regular search thing, I would like to be able to search for "F Bass", it would really help!

If you use the google option you can search single letters or with quotations.

Just put type this first:

site:talkbass.com

Than your inquiry.

EXAMPLE: site:talkbass.com "F bass"

It will only search talkbass.com for pages with "F bass"

If you need to narrow it down to the for sale threads try "F bass for sale" or "F bass F/S"
