    I have a mim jazz bass that I have been modding this past year and finally I got a new bridge, an the high mass American fender one. I have plugged the 2 middle holes (hole 2 & 4) and redrilled them for the bridge. Now my question is my bridge is sitting measuring from the inside edge of the...

    Metal bassist looking to upgrade gear, plz advise

    I used to play in a grindcore band and I was a using a nemesis rs 400 and matching quad it had loads of volume and could handle distortion from pedals really well. Only thing the lights are damn annoying and the inbuilt dist. Sucks but for overall sound and power absolutely amazing

    Forearm Contour reshape, refinish

    Paint it the same colour as the pickguard. Or you could cut pickguard material to the shape of the contour and heat/bend it to the shape. Bevel the bottom edge or its flush with the body and glue it straight to the body with contact so you wrist doesnt rub on the screw heads. That is if your...

    Opinions on Nemesis NC115?

    I have had the 4x10 but now I've moved on to 2 1x115 an rs115n and the older model. The 4x10 had a huge amount of power for it's rating the 15's fart out another quicker but the sound. Oh the sound the sound is huge and low and massive

    Cab Builder Question

    I'm a cabinet maker by trade but have never built a cab. I would say leave them and not bother pinning unless you are using them as a holder whilst screwing. Basically you've put them in if you pull them out there will be a weak spot

    Eden EX410 400 watt cab, anyone?

    I had the nemesis version for about 2 years and it was great, surprising loud for a 500 watt cab. Tweeter control on the back and really responsive. I play in a grindcore band. So super fast and lots of OD and it sounded great. Only reason I got rid of it is I wanted a 2x15 rig so now I have 2...

    Rack case problem

    Is the from of the unit flat or curved? If flat can you mount the screws through the rails and then mount the furman then use nylocks on the back. Need more space use washers between rail and unit to extent is further back. No ideal but a solution
