I saw an interview with Camel's Andrew Latimer, he tried to buy a plane ticket for his guitar, but they wouldn't let it fly because it didn't have a passport. :D Sorry, OP. They seem to have messed up your neck :bawl: Oh, good point tstone, would be good to narrow down the problem first.

If I borrowed ANYONE'S bass, I would treat it like my own, maybe even more carefully. If any damage was incurred, you can definitely expect it to be repaired before it's return. And I thought that was common courtesy.

My Schallers are pretty much my favorite part about my main player... Minor adjustments every couple of days unless it's being moved to practice or played really hard. Playing conditions, I think, are the biggest factor. I saw this band on a cruise ship that had to tune mid-song, every...

That pickup/preamp combo seems like you can EQ all sorts of sounds out of it, try and find a nice punchy one to get through the mix?

What a sweet bass!! But... tbh, that neck wear scares the hell out of me.

Zep II of course, chock-full of quintessential JPJ tracks. I is great if you're in the mood for blues, and III for folky rock, IV for classic rock... but you just cant beat that monster bass on II that inspired so many.

Bootsy is a definite contender, but I'd give the prize to Larry Graham. Also remember that Jaco played some funky stuff with Herbie Hancock that was light-years ahead of what their contemporaries were doing.

I just graduated high school, and can't find a job anywhere. I apply every day with no call backs. My parents think I'm a loser, they've told me to put more effort into getting a job. I graduated 9th in my class, took all AP classes, worked hard to the final day of school. I'm no slacker. I have...

I thought the same...

Depends on type of finish, how long + tight the new bridge is on. I've seen them come off clean, or take the whole paintjob with them.

As much as I dislike Foo Fighters and Nirvana, Grohl is a cool guy and I have a lot of respect for him. This has to be the best protest ever.

The lyrics are great, too bad I literally can't hear any of them. Apart from that, the album is phenomenal. I don't listen to Seas of Cheese much (sue me) because of the god awful mixing, but Green Naugahyde is much better. Great bass and a lot of interesting ideas permeate the recording. Their...

God this version is terrible. Do it. It's probably on the station's rotation, which is the idea.

I've owned 3 Ibanez instruments... because they were bargain priced. Great stuff, but their business model is pretty solid without delving into the CS market.

On vacation, you might not be able to take something like that back home.
