    SBMM Stingray Short scale

    Thanks for the thorough reply. I really appreciate the info you provided. Actually, those sound like good upgrades that turned a good instrument into a great one. I think I would like a toggle switch instead of a rotary knob. Good idea. Once again, thanks.

    SBMM Stingray Short scale

    A question for everyone that has the latest release of the SBMM Short Scale: How are the tuning keys on this bass? I've heard that they are better. How about the neck? what do you think about it? I know that @LowEndLobster and @lvst1ngs has this bass. I watched @LowEndLobster video the tuners...

    not one but two peavey t-40's

    Congratulations! I have a T-60. It's a beautiful guitar, looks almost new. It is natural with a maple fingerboard. It is completely stock, and I plan on keeping it that way. It has a "Patent Applied For" on the headstock, so it must be one of the first ones manufactured. I would love to have a...

    The Official Fender Precision Bass Club (Part 8)

    You are right. Those posts are narrower in the middle, and therefore, the strings creep toward the middle of the posts. My late '90s MIM Jazz has those type of posts. My '75 and my 2012 Precision have straight posts. My 2015 Precision has true tapered (top/larger to bottom/smaller) posts. The...

    SBMM Stingray Short scale

    I'm back to checking out this thread and possibly considering the SBMM Short Scale. It is certain that I will have some questions later on. I found this video on the latest release of the guitar. I found it informative.

    Official Mesa Boogie Subway Series Club

    That's what I gathered from the posts that I read. There is so much information out there I just wanted to make sure.

    Official Mesa Boogie Subway Series Club

    Thanks Andy. If I'm not mistaken, we had a conversation years ago about these connectors and SJOOW cable. Probably ten or twelve years ago.

    Official Mesa Boogie Subway Series Club

    A quick question/statement about the cable/input issue that has been discussed a LOT a few pages ago. I have been making my Neutriks speaker cables for over 12 years now, other cables for much longer. I use SJOOW 14/3 cable (only two conductors) and Neutriks connectors. I buy a high quality...

    How do you handle unkown songs on stage?

    This happens a lot with the band I sub in. Actually, I don't mind. It has helped me a ton in my quest to be a better musician and bassist. Having a good ear helps. Knowing a lot of popular song progressions helps as well. The regular members are very good at giving me tips if they feel I am...

    Oh, and I also wanted to say, you really need to send me that Sting bass. That is one beautiful instrument!

    P-Bass Pickup recommendation for Blues

    I have three P basses which have three different pickups. They all sound different (not wild, just slightly different). The '75 has Chromes on it, really changes the tone compared to when it had round wounds on it. They all still sound like a P bass. I just use amp EQ and HPF to get the tone I'm...

    Extra small pedalboards?

    Thanks. My needs are low, but I'm starting to research using power banks. So, you are saying you are using the power bank to power the Cioks, then the pedals?
