    Fender Precision Case/Bag

    Where/what is the cheapest method for me to get something to carry my Fender Precision Bass around safely in my car? All I've seen online is a hardshell case that was about 140 online. Any other cheaper alternatives? Can I just walk into my local music shop and get a bag for it? Or do...

    I have just been using a cord that runs straight from my bass to my laptop and recording using audacity with no effects. Is there any way I can use this type of setup, without buying any hardware, but add in some effects to make it sound more like it is coming from an amp? any software I...

    Static when Input Jack Moves

    I've noticed this problem is only specific to one bass. When I plug the input jack into the bass, the input jack can jiggle a little bit. I assume this jiggle is causing the static. I tried tightening the screw around the input jack on the bass but the problem persists. Is this a minor...

    MIM P-bass or Blacktop Precision?

    I'm pretty set on getting one of these two: Invalid Link Removed or Invalid Link Removed Now I'm pretty sure I should go for the MIM based on the kind of music I like playing...mainly Blink 182, other punk rock, and hard rock/metal. But I really LOVE LOVE LOVE the way the Blacktop looks...

    Buying my second bass

    I would prefer to be able to get a tone at least similar to the P-bass tone. So the "Fender Blacktop Jazz" would have much more of the punk rock sound to it than the "Fender Blacktop Precision". Wouldn't have thought that from the names lol I really love the look of the Blacktop...

    Buying my second bass

    Thanks for the quick responses. I do understand that it will not sound like a p-bass. When I said that, I was referring to the shorter neck, sorry about that. I suppose my next question would simply be, would the Fender Blacktop Precision bass suit the kinds of music I play? Or should I look...

    Buying my second bass

    Hey all, I've been playing bass for 6 months and currently use an ESP B-15. I have done some research and am very interested in p-basses. I went to my local shop and held a fender p-bass and it felt really comfortable. The shorter neck is what I like the most. I also like the sound that...
