    Do P Bass pickups need to be hot to have grit/attitude/growl?

    Splitcoil humming on Fender Am Pro II P Bass

    Ordering multiple amps, keeping the one you want: Dick move?

    I mean, they have a cost to sending you multiple amps but, on the flip side, there is a cost to you coming in to stores and checking out gear too....

    Any love for Stu Hamm?

    I think Stu faded away mostly because he kind of plateaued. While I don't think most players could ever come to his level, he blew everybody out...

    Anyone spend $2500 on a Kiesel bass they weren’t super happy with?

    Flatwounds eliminate 60 cycle hum?

    I didn't read the whole 5 pages so this probably came up but shielding will not impact 60hz hum. That is what humbuckers are for. Two separate...
