    Can you put a pickguard on a bass that didn't come with one?

    Ok thanks ;) So to know where to drill, you can just place the pickguard over and mark the spots?

    Upright style playing

    Yeah, I've been playing upright alot longer than electric so I'm finding it a real challenge in using my third finger at all, there is just no strength in it like there is in the other ones! I can sort of move my third individually but it's just alot harder.

    Upright style playing

    Haha sorry I just realised how bad a description I gave of my problem. What I mean is I use 1-2-4 fretting system, and I'm wanting to move on two 4 fingers per fret, but I'm having real trouble with the pivoting etc. Do you have any tips? :)

    Upright style playing

    Hey everyone When I play bass, I tend to play in an upright style(with my fretting hand), it's a little cumbersome for bass guitar and I'm trying to iron it out so I can play more like a guitarist would. Any tips?

    Good intermediate amp?

    Thanks, I replied to your message ;) So your'e thinking genz benz? I had a look at the site and it's great! I'm loooking at spending 500-900 dollars on this amp, at $1200, the shuttle 6.0 seems a tad out of my range, what do you think of the 3.0?

    Good intermediate amp?

    Hey guys it's my birthday soon and I'm looking at getting a new amp. I'm an intermediate player and I'm pretty into jazz/funk and that kinda thing.

    P/J neck?

    Thanks for the replies guys, I measured my neck at the nut and it's about 1.6 inches so I think I have a P neck. Also I have an Aria STB series, does that mean fender necks would fit on it? Thanks for the help :)

    P/J neck?

    Hey everyone I have a question. I know it's probably kinda dumb but to be honest I really don't know the answer! I can't find it anywhere! Anyway, I was wondering, what sort of neck does a P/J bass use? I ask this as I am thinking of ordering a fretless neck off warmoth when I get a newer...

    Using thumb to fret E string?

    +1 That is so true :) But I think this probably has something to do with the rabbath technique, I've read places that he often uses his thumb extensively, especially when playing high up the fingerboard. This is a double bass method I think though, but I think it has some use on electric...
