    The Music Zoo / Aliexpress (china) custom bass guitar builds

    Thank you for that, sorry I missed it but that's pretty much me. I'll watch the video. This build should be simple. The basic gist of my design is a pbass in every way except jazz bass pickups. Theoretically I should have a bass that feels just like the rest of my p's but has the sound of a...

    The Music Zoo / Aliexpress (china) custom bass guitar builds

    Can anyone provide a link to any of these Ali-express custom builders? I can't find the music zoo this post is about, anywhere on Ali-express. It's odd that no one posts links to these sites. I just got pics of my custom order bass from IYV Guitars, "ready to ship" and I'm going to have to...

    Do you avoid gigs where you have to bring PA and run your own sound?

    Although things are changing thanks to gear itself changing, for the last twenty years in the Phoenix area it basically went like this; if the venue had original acts, the PA was always provided and if they had cover bands then 95% were BYOPA.

    Warning to Anyone Thinking of Buying a Pickguard From Tone-Guard

    I think I've figured out what happened to Wayne. I've been wondering for a few years if maybe he died but only recently learned his name. Hearing others here say he's popped his head up as recently as last Dec means he's not dead. Then I thought, this sounds like a stoner with couchlock. Has...

    Help With Fender Neo 115 Cabinet

    Thank you for checking. I actually already purchased those "2" they were supposedly in the FL store. After the money left my account I got an email saying they only had one and it was a floor model with scuffs. I got a refund. I think "Scuffy" is the only one left and they only offered to...

    Help With Fender Neo 115 Cabinet

    With Fender unfortunately not currently delivering, I have decided to build my own neo 115 cabinets. I just acquired a Super Bassman head but when I went to buy two new Bassman neo 15 cabinets to create my new stack, my luck, they are no longer available. Will someone please post some...

    How many basses do you ACTUALLY use?

    I gig with all 20. They're all the same bass just different colors! I've been trying to collect all 40 or so colors in the same model for several years. Sorry no picture today. I know some would like to see 20 different Am St P's in the same room. I absolutely love being able to pick from my...
