    Talk to be about the effects of pickup height

    I'm primarily a P-Bass player with really heavy pick attack, and I just drop the pickup until the pickup cover is essentially level with the pick guard. I've found that using things like compressors and various drive pedals (Big Muff's and various distortions) really bring it all home and make...

    Fender Fanned Fret?

    I think a series in classic color ways would be insane. Leave the Fender headstock and adapt everything else.

    Fender Fanned Fret?

    Hypothetical question: Do you think Fender will ever adopt the fanned fret system found on more recent instruments like the Dingwall and Ibanez basses? I recently played a Dingwall Super P that someone brought to a gig through my SVTx215 combo and feel like that (IMO) it’s the final...

    could you please sell me on Jaco?

    I think for the time, his innovative style became the defacto name drop. He's definitely insanely talented and a LANDMARK bass player, but I'm in the same boat. I think this is something most people go through. His work is massive, but just like free form jazz, some people just don't get it...

    700w amp rig can't keep up with guitars.

    As someone who straight up has that rig, I bought another 4x10 to make more of a sonic impact. It's definitely the best way to handle this.

    700w amp rig can't keep up with guitars.

    Take your drummer aside, tell him that you want to ditch those two primadonna's and start a better, more volume suitable band. That's what I'd do.

    Uh oh. (NCD!)

    Thank you so much!

    Uh oh. (NCD!)

    Not to be dramatic, but it's honestly the best rig I've ever played through. Punchy, thick and warm but hollow enough to be malleable. Easily, for the money, the best 8x10 type rig you can get NEW.
