    How many Of you are ONLY Bassplayers?

    My problem is mostly patience I think, or maybe a bad case of ADD lol. I can't focus very long. I'm a nightmare on bass (not in a good way lol), because all I really know about it is playing by ear. I don't do scales and notes too well. The other instrument I have attempted a couple times has...

    How many Of you are ONLY Bassplayers?

    My main instrument is bass, but I do indeed own a m.i.m. Strat with Carvin pups. I can't play it too good but it helps me in writing. I also own a Charvel. I own the Charvel because I wanted to rebuild an instrument and I just so happened to have a Charvel that was given to me and I used it for...

    What do you guys think about this Ebay listing.

    Wow, seeing that bass is an ill reminder of just how stupid I was about 14 years ago. I picked one of those up for about 75bucks out of a pawn shop in beautiful condition and loaned it to this guy who was going to be our bass player and it turned out he was a thief instead. Never saw that bass...

    KMD Pickups

    Anybody know anything about KMD pickups? Are they quality pups? I had some in my old GTX 5 string bass and I liked them pretty well. I don't have it anymore, but I had someone contact me recently to ask me about KMD's. I can't find anything else about them other than I now Kaman Music put them...

    Hello

    Hello, I'm Rick Kinney from Texarkana, AR. Been playing bass about 5 years (more if you count the time I just owned one and never got serious with it years ago.) Not sure what to say about my status as a bass player other than all I do is play by ear and I'm really kind of sloppy at it lol...

    Ibanez sw100?

    I can't say too much bad about my SW100. I love it, I haven't had the opportunity to play in a live venue with it, but a friend of mine whom I bought it from used it in open jam nights at a local bar and it held it's own quite well and if you've been to to open jam, you know how brutal they can...
