Well, since I don't know anyone else on the forum personally, I vote for my self, well actually the small church I attend. I have volunteered to play bass for my young church the last three years. Our congregation is growing, and have a great youth program. A couple of the teenage guys are...

Thanks. I located some on the interwebs ranging from $7 to $20. Some are rated at 2amp, whereas the original is a 3amp. Should I stick with the 3amp, or have my bass assplode on me?

I need to replace this on-on pick-up switch in my passive Hondo bass (2 pickups). The switch has 2 positions (on-on), and 6 contact points for wiring. Can someone ID a correct replacement? Thanks.

What? Why is there no E# ?

thanks for you replies. I always thought it sounded and played nicely. I know there aren't too many of these around. It has sentimental value to me. thanks again...Matt

I thought that might be a problem. forget value. what about quality and desireability? (edited first post)

Hi. I am hoping to get feedback about my bass. I am the original owner of an 84 Hondo longhorn. I am curious as to its quality, how desireable, etc... I have never owned another bass, so I really can't compare it to another.
