    Your first bass

    My first bass was an Ibanez GSR 200. I didn't sell it even though someone wanted to buy it. The jack socket was jammed in the last time I had it. I didn't sell it or give it away, but I cant seem to find it. Its like it disapeared.

    B410HLF $50

    I kind of want to restore it with its original speakers. I might try and replace the speakers myself with the help of a friend who knows more than i do.

    B410HLF $50

    I am purchasing a Ampeg B410hlf for $50. The catch is it has two blown speakers. I was wondering how much the replacement speakers are? What are they? And if the only place I could get them is directly from Ampeg. Also, how much do you guys think it would cost for the repair, since I don't...

    question plz answer newbie ;P

    when you say "pluck" do you mean playing with your fingers or like "plucking' as in pulling the string to get a snap? if your playing pizzacato or fingerstyle then it shouldn't be hitting the fret, if your getting buzz because of it then you probably need to raise your string height.

    Totally agree. I attend the third largest business school in America at Cal State Fullerton and we talk about ethics in every course. But the "bottom line" is the bottom line! Profits baby!

    Can you believe this???

    Why did you buy online? Thats what im trippin about! You can go into any GC and work the salesman for some kind of discount, especially a brand new bass... I do online shopping at MF only when I see some great deals but then you can just go into any GC and have them price match. I don't blame...

    Stuff you hate to hear a non-bassist say (part 2)

    "Playing the bass is easier than the guitar because it has less strings, and you only play one note at a time." Heard that a few times from ignorant guitar players who obviously know nothing... makes me want to kill!:mad: but i usually keep my mouth shut, because ill probably say something ill...

    drum machine or bass effects pedal

    Alot of multi-effect units come with simple drum machines for practice. None will make you better, practice will though. I learned that nothing replaces practicing with a metronome, it exposes your bad time. Good time in music is irreplacable and a must. I think drum machines might help your...
