    Trying basses in a shop

    Thanks for all the input everyone. I think taking my bass along to compare to is a good plan. Interesting about the horn on the cabs as well. I will see if I can go to places with a 30 day return policy. I did have a look at some higher end Yamahas - for some reason most of the ones in the...

    Trying basses in a shop

    I've been playing bass for quite a while but never really taken it that seriously until recently so kind of a noob in some ways. Since seeing a Fender 70s Precision Bass I've been afflicted with some severe GAS. I have a Yamaha RBX 270 which is quite a nice bass but I've been thinking of...

    Fender '70s Precision Bass

    Hi folks, just joined here. Currently playing a Yamaha RBX270 but I'm tempted by one of these - mainly just because they look so cool, which is the important thing obviously. :D Need to decide if I can handle having a maple fretboard, so I guess I need to try playing one somewhere. Looking...
