Sorry ladies and gentleman that I haven't gotten to all your posts but am appreciative all the input and I will get to them. I did talk Jason pretty much right after I started the post. We're good - he's happy to have another satisfied customer and I'm happy to have a vendor who prides...

This has to be an isolated instance with me as I just got off the phone (for like an hour) with Jason. Actually he called when he saw this post so that's a completely extreme level of service that I never would have expected from anyone. He just wanted to make sure we were cool. We're both good...

Perhaps I'm only an isolated instance with ordering from BassStrings Online and maybe you players can chip in and let me know about your experience's. That being said; I ordered two sets of strings 11 business days ago and never got a 'has shipped email' or anything that might indicate a delay...

It's pretty obvious that you would have no actual knowledge of a theft otherwise you wouldn't be putting this much effort into tracing it. Just how well do you know the people in the lineage of this instrument? That's something only you would know know but something to consider if you don't...

Maybe nothing to do with the builder, might have been something the customer designed. Possibly that person never picked it up so who knows how the builder may have dumped it. Hate to bring up bad memories for myself as well as some other folks out there - was it stolen somewhere along the line?

I don't know if ID'ing the preamp will help. If you look at the quality on the soldering of the components on the board it's much higher than that of the wiring, some of which is really pretty bad. Insulation melted, rosin left on, holes at some points. Anyway the soldering of the wiring was...

Well, I'll have to go to the store on the 12th. In the meantime, I am trying to get some heel dimensions for both the 4 string & 5 strings necks listed @ link: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. Anyone that has them it would of great help to me. I sent an email to Kala but it may have got lost...

Pretentious being seen & heard playing one? Probably not. Casually tossing one across a chair in your studio like you just don't care? Maybe so... :smug: From that angle - kinda looks like Flipper...or possibly like a shark with a frickin' laser beam on it's head

I've owned a couple of Gibsons and seen a few of the Epiphones but I have only seen either version with the forward strap button on the back at the heel or neck plate depending on version. The strap button was one of the four neck plate screws on the bolt on series. Maybe somebody modified it...

...math is a four letter word. might cost you a few gigs...

I've never used this companies products so I don't know how good they are. They've got a pretty wide range of toys you can build like preamps & power amps (all the ones I've seen were tube). They also have some enclosures but you'd have to look into that more. Anyway, the prices aren't awful but...

254 stringer I need to take a new couch pic. Me thinks you need a bigger couch to rest their arses on... :) While I'm here, here's my latest: an Ibanez Artcore AFB 200 The label (thumbnail) says MIC however the serial number references Samick in Korea. I suspect that the Serial number...

Does anyone know if you can Line Out of one CUB to the Aux In of another and just use the second as amp/speakers? I know the Aux In is a stereo 1/8" jack but there are adapters for that. If I needed to get a little more umph then if I could line them and I'd then have 2oo W just like I would...

SVT was Allen Woody's normal rig but I did see him with the Mule using a DB359. I don't know how often or if that was just easier for where they were (Seattle) but a huge sound.

I still have my DB359 but don't drag it out much these days - just too darned heavy & I really don't need to. The Aguilar is plenty loud enough and because the power supply is so massive there was no clipping even at 11. Rarely got that high anyway. Mostly ran it thru 2 Bergantino's (EX112and...
