I used a lot of stuff over the years. Meguiars 3 step. Zaino 3 step. P21s. Klasse all in one. Always clay bar first. They all look great in their own way. Zaino lasts months and is so damn shiny that in the summer all you see is the sun staring back at you. Carnauba anything had depth...

Korg bought Aguilar and Spector? Not worried at all. Korg is awesome. They make a lot of high quality stuff. I love their keyboards and synths.

Im in search of a cheap bass myself. The best thing about them is that you never worry about dings or scratches and if someone wants to play something you just hand the thing over. You just play the hell out of it and enjoy it. I have more fun with cheapies than the expensive stuff that gets...

If I was buying today I'd say Subway 15 or Barefaced Super Twin.

Mesa has had so many cool tolex/grill combinations over the years. Would like to see the Subway get some of that love. I'd sell it and get another 115 cab.

I'm a planning manager at a 1.6 mil sq ft regional distribution center that focuses on making sure what is in the system matches what is on the floor. When the building is running smoothly (like it is right now) I really dont do much at all. Kind of an on demand problem resolution person...

The former financial econ side of me got a little interested and went snooping. Ampeg is far from dead. It's actually ridiculous how much more revenue they make compared to other amp companies. I dont want to name names because of people on the forum but in one comparison I did they had...

FWIW I have never been disappointed with anything MIJ regarding fretwork and neck quality. If you are purchasing online without playing either I'd go with the BBP35. If you can play a few and pick the best I would go BB735A. I have no doubt that there are 735s out there that are equal in...

I got a rumble that I like. The elf has a much more clearer uncolored kind of tone that you'd usually pay a lot more for. And the elf DI is a lot better designed. You can't go wrong either way. Rumble does the vintage thing perfectly at half the price. If I redid things I might go with the...

When I was studying Econ someone said anything is a good deal for the right price. Thats really the only thing that will make me scroll. If the listed price is the new price or not far from it. I bought minty Stingrays for 800 and Les Pauls for 1300. No I'm not paying you 2000 for a used one...

What Dosi said above is pretty good advice if you are going the pedal route. You can add some nice low end and kind of fade it in and out to exactly how much you want with a blend. I am doing somewhat the same thing with a Geddy Lee 2112 pedal. I'm sure you could do the same with a simple eq...

Just read most of the TB posts. 90% of it is insecure ramblings trying to be macho or looking for approval. The only people worth a damn only stay because they are either promoting or selling something.

I think its a lot to do with bands trying to protect a certain image. And TBH if your music is good enough no one gives a damn how many strings you play or if you are in swimming trunks. I see this mostly in the older crowd. I'll take the lake placid four stringer out and next time bring the...

I'd choose a Stingray over any Jazz. To me they kind of do similar things but the Musicman will almost always have the higher quality fretboard, neck, woods, everything. It's not even comparable. I started out on stingrays and now only play Fender MIA Pbasses. My best Pbass is maybe 60% of...

As long as you keep playing and in tune no one ever cares. Its all in our head. A lot of people dont even remember what instrument you play just that you were in the band lol.
