Hamer Slammer p bass. Candy apple red with a mother of pearl pickguard. Im hoping to add a first gen cruise bass to the collection one day to come full circle.

What little time I have spent with it, I definitely end up using the low mid EQ to boost the bass and cut the bass knob, like you did.

It sounds great! I'd say pretty neutral, but a very usable EQ section. I'd have to try it with other cabs to get the full scope of its range.

After years of looking, I finally got the micro amp. This little gem was a quick 45 minute drive and included the 115 cabinet. Still not sure about the cabinet, it definitely has a unique sound being sealed with no horn. But, for $200 for the pair, I just couldn't pass it up.

If you aren't comfortable trying to fix it yourself, Wendell is the only tech in the area I would take any instrument to. He's in Marietta.

Used, but well taken care of Carvin PJ 5 string bass. I used this on the road for a country gig I had for a few years. I am no longer using it on a regular basis. Also great for rock! This bass feels and plays incredible. Very solid build quality. The birdseye maple fretboard and matching...

How would you describe the shape of the neck? Is it modern c or vintage baseball bat...etc. Thanks!

Looking to trade my tortoise pickguard for a white pearloid pickguard.

Trickfish Bullhead .5. I had two other class d amps prior that were tiny. I like that it's a full size chasis, but only weighs 5 lbs.

I know some people will solder the grounds together and have 1 lead coming out the other end. Make sure to use shrink wrap to cover the joint, so you won't have any funky grounding issues.

Here is the 1997 5 string version. I don't know what Fender called this finish. It's transparent blue/green. 100% stock. I sold it a few years back to fund a Carvin build. I loved the tone, but the B string always sounded dead.

If you want to stay with a 34" scale, I would also include Carvin/Kiesel as a serious contender.

That's the exact headstock I am looking to replicate. I guess I'll figure something out. I appreciate the helpful post!

Not sure I'm capable of doing that from a smart phone.

I have an All-Parts bass neck that I would like to change the shape of to look like the older ESP style. I was hoping to find a template that I could lay over the top, but after a long internet search, I come up empty. It looks like the bottom rounded section is just cut off. But I really don't...
