    Fender Flea Road Worn Jazz Bass Club

    just got one a few hours ago. Had to tune and adjust relief and pickup heights. It has some medium grade flame in the neck and a good weight. Haven't plugged it in yet but sounds and feels good as is. Now i have 3 fenders; 1978 precision, 2021 50s vintera precision, and 2020 rw 60s flea jazz.

    Fender Bassman 59 RI as a bass amp??

    Cool man. I also use a 59 bassman ltd as a bass amp. I actually replaced the jensen's with eminence legends on bottom and basslites on top only because legends wouldn't fit on top with the transformers. It sounds awesome. I liked it so much i bought a second one and did the same speaker swap. I...

    What in the world?

    When Jackson first started making the x series neck thru body, i got two concert basses. Both are the late 80s early 90s layout (i think). The red one has a flamed maple vaneer. I think all the other styles they are coming out with aren't very Jackson even though they are owned by fender. I wish...

    New 2021 Gibson NR Thunderbird!

    I hope epiphone puts one out so i can afford one. Ive been after a flying v bass for a while now but haven't seen any under 900 that wasn't from japan and beat to hell. I hinted at epiphone to reissue the v bass and maybe a full scale 335 bass also. You never know what they are up too especially...

    New 2021 Gibson NR Thunderbird!

    Agreed that claw and tune o matic would be better and i wish the tuners were in the same spot as the reverse so the e would be the longest.

    Unbiased review: Squier Classic Vibe Jaguar Bass, medium scale, 2020 model

    I have a 2021 cv jaguar issa serial. I have inspected my new bass very closely and found it to be flawless. Everything is as it should be. Of course it needed some set up adjustments from traveling and my personal preferences. Neck is straight in pocket all parts are aligned correctly, nut is...

    NBD Squier Classic Vibe Jaguar Bass Medium Scale

    I actually put D'addario medium scale tapewounds on my 2021 cv jaguar bass. I liked it but i already have 3 other basses with flats and like the "piano" tone from rounds so i put the factory fender nps back on which i also like. I buy the nps 45-105 when i cant afford dean markley blue steel or...

I think the bridge is fine too(mine has good weight to it)i actually put on a kickass bridge bit it didn't intonate all the way so i put...

    Marshall origin 50h for bass?

    Oh that amp kinda sounds like a 59 bassman lol. They are also 50w tube power and volume never goes past 3. I put the amps eq B8 M6 T6 into the normal channel with a mxr 10 band eq with the 32hz and 1000hz bumped up but basically transparent just adds extra sub frequencies. I also swapped the...

I keep checking sweetwater so i can pick out the heaviest one and maybe get one with figured woods like i have...

    Fender Bassman 59 Reissue, any good for Bass?

    I own one of these amps. I bought it specifically for bass guitar. The stock Jensen P10Rs are nice vintage speakers so for bass they don't have a low enough frequency range to crank the amp past 3 but if you replace them with bass speakers you can turn up although it will tend to break up...
