Dear self: BUYING MORE STUFF IS AN INEFFECTIVE SUBSTITUTE FOR PRACTICE! You're welcome, Self

Another alternative that has multiple uses is the Yamaha THR-10 - it's fine with Guitar, Bass, keyboard, bagpipes... Also serves as a USB computer interface and comes with Cubase LE. The stock sounds are kind of meh, but lots of tweakability when hooked up to the computer. Oh, it can also...

Rio got back with me very quickly and provided these measurements: Bridge 3.64 x 1.5 Between mount tabs 1.56” Neck 3.55 x 1.5 Between mount tabs 1.5” I'll try to check tonight and see if either is the same as the stock Fender. Oh, and sorry...

I have a '97 with the four-ear humbucker that seems quite anemic compared to the P. I am trying to get information on the [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] from Rio, but as yet my dealer is not being very responsive. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Think I'll contact Rio directly for...

Picked this up the other day, from 1982: I've been tweaking (came in with a bum P pickup, come to find out the magnets were out of whack). It's got great thump now! Original DiMarzio pickups, incredibly lightweight. Really enjoying it!

Saw them in Nashville (in what? '92?) on the "Break Like The Wind" tour. "Big Bottom" was the final encore, with of course everyone on bass. Being in Nashville there were some odd special guests who showed up on stage, the only one I remember by name was Bela Fleck. After the "Big Bottom"...

Thank you for this! ^^ ... and everyone else! Subscribed!

New to bass (December), but when I looked for my first bass I used the same criteria I've used for guitar: prefer thicker necks. I can play any size neck, but I find the thicker necks afford a more comfortable experience over a longer period of time. I'm certainly not experienced enough to speak...

Subscribed! (i.e., me too!)

Bone Stock 1997 Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass - 9.50 lbs.

The bass strings advice / purchase went so well that I asked about a strap. The strap purchase went so well I've started buying guitar strings :hiding: from him, as well! Can't say enough good things. He's been awfully patient with a bass noob!

1. Go to Welcome to Bass Strings Online - Your Custom Bass String Shop... 2. Message Jason (SLaPiNFuNK on TalkBass) and tell him about your instrument and what styles you like to play. 3. Wait on the correct strings to come in. It's really that easy. I'm a long time guitar player who got...

Say, as long as you're getting a number for ObeyGiant, could I get one too? :hyper: My first bass: 2007 Am Std Deluxe P bought through the TB Classifieds. Surprisingly, it has me all but ignoring my guitars. I'm finding bass far more interesting at the moment.

Fantastic job! Great bringing new life into old (or neglected) instruments!

Thanks, Scotch! I'll get on that this weekend. I couldn't imagine that it didn't adjust, but didn't have the time to pull it apart. I really like the P pickup where it is. It'll be great to get the humbucker up to where the output matches.
