    Ken Smith Burner Question *Triggered Content*

    Hey yall that was some great feedback. My initial feeling is to leave it as is, but it’s a bummer to not enjoy it as much as I would like to. That said, yea I guess it is most definitely not the brown eyed girl machine! Leaning into it something I’ll try more. I’ve been hesitant to take it to...

    Thanks I know it’s burner. And this bass can not ever be resold, it’s just a matter of making it to my liking or keeping it as is

    Twinsies! Il”missing bottom end” I would whole heartedly agree with that actually, just doesn’t sound or feel “full”

    Ken Smith Burner Question *Triggered Content*

    My first bass is a Ken Smith burner I purchased from a friend about 2014. The bass is from 1993 if I remember correctly. I went through a period of buying and selling basses obsessively about 2019/2020. I had enough foresight to “sell” the Ken smith to my father in law so that I wouldn’t lose...

    NBD: Ibanez EHB-1500

    The only reason I sold mine is because I felt self conscience about it and was scared of anything other than a 4 string P Bass It very ergonomic, the previous owner of my reinforced the dots with sticker, I’d recommend as well. The neck is very flat and curves on the back to aid in a relaxed...

    Looking to replace my Rumble v3 with a pedal.

    Two notes bass revolt is awesome, and has headphone and aux in jack

    "Regular" Boss pedals vs. "Waza Craft"

    Id have to say it would depend on the pedal. I absolutely love the sound and simplicity of my CE2W. I preferred that over the walrus audio Julia, which is no slouch! I was fortune to get my Waza at a discount so the prices were very similar. I don’t know if all the waza series pedals are worth...

    Finish for Walnut

    I’ll let others say their opinion. I wouldn’t say it’s better, it’s just a different flavor. It’s low VOC, really easy to apply, very forgiving, a little goes a long way, if you need to reapply it’s no big deal you can patch no problem. If you use polyurethane or others you can get easy streaks...

    Finish for Walnut

    Osmo polyx or Rubio are awesome hardwax oils. I got the builder from TJS drums locally to go from a tung oil/carnuba wax blend to osmo! Two coats and you’re done, you can get ceramic coats if you want more protection, I did osmo satin for these pieces a few years back

    Tube preamp pedal questions/dicussion

    @Ross Davies current set while I finish woodworking my future pedal board. I think I may just forgo the bass driver, the whole purpose of that was to split the signal to add more bottom to the modern drive channel, the reality is I seldom need that specific channel. I love the ease of access...
