I never really paid much attention to my first bass (as to what it actually is) but turns out I started on a 1987 SDGR finished in red/pink. I still own it, for about 22 years now, and typing that out made me feel real old haha! I think there's something wrong with mine though, my controls seem...

Suggestions were probably mentioned before but I did a lot of airline touring with softcases (trying to force carry-on; which always worked!) and a burner bass in the form of a Squier VM Jazz, Squier CV Precision and a modified OLP Stingray. My reasoning was with a compact gig bag they're way...

Replying to a 2009 thread... but yeah. Have a Boss OC2 that's only turning ON. I already replaced the actual switch, but that didn't help the problem. Plug it into power, its on. And the switch just won't turn it off. I've tried 3 different switches now (including the original one) so...

its a godd*mn shame I missed your exam Hidde! Knew it was on, but had an important rehearsal myself.. So sorry I missed it! CVs, and VMs (although a bit less than the CVs) rock, funk, jazz like the rest (Fender Std) of them! Sure, my VM Jazz is an 'airplane' bass, my CV Pbass doesn't get much...

Alternative/Indie pop music, all available for free downloads in preparation for our upcoming studio album. These recordings were made over the past ±2 years, some songs might make it to the next album, some may not. Some where covered, some written for special campaigns or simply new...

Love that! Next on my list :o lol (god, do I really need more basses...) So after getting my CV 60s Precision, I've been looking at the squier jazzes; CV and VM. Managed to pick this baby up, just in time to take an airplane; Got home, replaced the pg with the tort that was on my Frankenstein...

If you like the way it sounds and feels; just leave it ;) That said; I love the way each and every one of my basses feels and sounds. But then, I keep getting new ones aswell.. Trying to make them even better is a natural thing I guess. Different strings, pickups, bridges. Experimenting with...

Thanks for all the info guys. And loved that P-Bass restoration topic JohnK! Beautiful! All of it is pointing towards a sunburst refinish then. Now I just need to find a way to finance it ;) I'll try to update you all when it happens.

Its been replaced with a 60s bridge. But the bridge i got with it it only had 2 original saddles. Our Dutch specialist at Pauls Bassmatters still kept my old parts (not sure for how long; I reallly should go and pcik them up) but its an amazing bass. The pups have been replaced, the rotten...

Man you dont even want to see what has been done to this baby. It hurts me to the bone. Honestly ;)

Im tempted to refinish it in some funky colour like Shell Pink, Sonic Blue or what have you :) But in the end I wnat to restore it to its former glory. If it hadnt been stripper I would;ve been happy with it the way it was. But stripped like this, with a hole in its body. Just hurts me to see...

bump 'cause it's almost US time.. Would like some expertise on this. As far as I can get; 4 bolt, '73-'74 serial, tort p.guard. Some dark/burgundy red in the neck pocket. Neck identified as authentic, body beaten up enough to be authentic. ;)

Hey everyone, I've been thinking of getting my '73-'74 Fender Jazzbass refinished. Right now it's a natural finish, and the body is a bit beat up; Link Removed The picture doesn't really show the dings it has properly. But you can see the shade on the top horn; that's a pretty big ding...

As stubborn as some engineers can be, if they present me with some external DI (often a bad one aswell) I just unplug it and stick the XLR in the back of my amp. I usually get miked aswell, although it's the first thing to go when there's not enough channels available. If you're using FX...

Saw that one too ;) Certainly looks nice, imo.
