BEAD all the way. If you are really hankering to live above the 12th fret on a G string, play a guitar. Every other note can be achieved with the higher frets of the D string.

A topic between friends that has always interested me. More so when I see how many people own multiple versions of the same instrument. Why? What drives you to buy another?

Loved how this dude would just get off the stage and play next to the crowd. That was always my favorite thing to do live.

I actually have one of those SX P-Basses still. Routed two Jazz bass pickups into it and threw in a 5 way switch for the poopie of it. Things are heavy as poopie.

Until you notice it playing like schit, don't worry about it. Sleek looking axe. I would worry less about those instances as long as it holds tune and the neck isn't buzzing.

Washburn Bantam XB-100 circa 2002. I started in a punk band with this bad boy, codenamed the Flying Purple People Eater. Back then, there were actually spikes taped into the lower arm and neck as teeth cause unless I am playing For Whom the Bells Toll, I don't use that part of the neck very...

Custom Rebuilt "Master Sword" P-Bass. Everything but the body is a replacement. Mixed gold and black hardware together for a two tone effect. Strap and pickguard were customized using heat transfer and sign vinyl. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Glad I picked up a set of these. Couldn't...

Not sure about having a problem, but you definitely have a shag ton of P and Jazz basses lol

I feel like I am forgetting one or two of them. 4 Stringers - 2002 ESP F-204 - 2002 Washburn XB-100 - 2002 Washburn XB-100 (Modified) - 2004 Squire Jazz Bass - 2010 Squire P Bass (Custom Rebuilding) - 2004 Fender Fretless Jazz Bass - 2010 Ibanez SR600 - 2022 Sterling Ray34H - 2002 Hartke POS...

Not really sure how to describe this. I have a Squire P-Bass Neck that has what feel like unfinished frets on the edges of the neck (it has snagged my hand a few times) and I am curious if it is something I can "file" down to make it smoother. All the years modifying cheap guitars, I have...

Thanks man! As soon as I went an looked at the NY Cab, I saw the plug is not what I was thinking and went to the local music store for an adapter cable to go speaker to 1/4, but great to see you confirming it here!

Hey guys, may be a stupid question, but I just bought a new MB CMD121 as the head in my old one went. I read on here that it was possible to run the broken amp from the working one as an extension like it was the NY Cab, but can not get it to work. Currently I have it running through the 2nd...

Amazing insight man. I do not have an extension currently and was looking at getting one to gig with until this happened so I may just go that route, but the knowledge that the head caused this is invaluable. Can't thank you enough.

Thank you for the response man! I figured it was a head issue like I have had with receivers doing similar BS, cause sometimes it comes back, but still not full tilt like it was. Is there a reason you bought a head @ $650 versus another amp CMD 102p @ $750 and used the new one to just power...

Was hoping someone here could shed some light on this as I have zero idea what could have happened to cause this. Went to turn my amp on the other day, only play maybe once-twice a week these days, but when I turned it on, the volume output I was getting started getting lower as I was playing...
