    Bass Hum, Incorrect Electronics?

    I had a very similar issue with recording on a laptop using NI Guitar Rig and Novation nio 2/4, I can't comment on your own setup or wiring scheme, but whenever I unplugged the power cable the hum would almost disappear. Having to work around issues in the studio and quickly, I unplugged every...

    Vintage Brand Basses

    I love that quote: ‘Solid as a rock, grunts like a trucker.’ ‘The neck is something quite special, being so slender it just seems to dissolve under the hand.’ ‘...be prepared for some serious grunt.’

    Jay Turser Mods for Canadians

    Sorry but I'm not after a mexican fender, I just want to mod out a $100 Jay Turser Bass using parts I have laying around. Which is pretty much everything but a neck. Plus that extra $200 saved can go towards liquor and easy women :D

    Jay Turser Mods for Canadians

    Hey Guys, I've seen quite a few threads about SX and all of the great mods done. But very few on the Jay Turser Fender clones. Living in Canada, SX double+ in price, making them not so cheap :spit: or desirable. But we do have Jay Turser's for very reasonable prices :hyper: If anybody has...

    Schecter Diamond-J Neck

    ThaLowEndTheory: Thanks for the responce, I was just looking at Tele necks on allparts and wondering if they would work. Schecter hasn't got back to me (asked them for specs) neither has Allparts or Warmoth. Someone has to know something! I love the build, tone and quality of this bass, a very...

    Schecter Diamond-J Neck

    Hey folks, just found a brand new Schecter Diamond J for next to nothing ($275 CAD) :hyper: and was wondering if anybody has ever replaced the neck on one? The pocket looked deceptively square, and it's not like I could take neck off in the store. FYI: Why do I want to replace the neck? I don't...

    The talkbass I.D.I.O.T club!

    Unbelievable, that damn number haunts me. First when I raced BMX's, the dreaded 43. Then when I played basketball, the unlucky 43! Same thing with football, I showed up late for the first day, every other number upto 99 had been picked, I end up with, well you know.. I embraced it, made it part...

    UPS ran over my bass. (Long story! PICS)

    Dear lord... I feel for you man. I really do. I have never had nothing but problems with UPS. A few years ago, I purchased a vintage Roland Alpha Juno 2 (mint) for the studio from another studio with which we have a very good relationship with. They shipped it through UPS... When the package...

    Did your parents play an instrument too?

    My father was an accomplished Disco/House DJ/Producer back in the late 70's early 80's. He even owned a discotheque and a record store at one point. During the 70's he also played guitar in a few funk bands, what he describes as "Quick riffs before the damn BASS takes over" :P Mother played...

    Ok, so now that I'm unemployed...

    I wish I was unemployed, I really do. Been trying to get myself fired from my current contract (sorry can't quit, I'd be sued) for a few weeks now. I ended up getting promoted and a salary raise after telling my current boss just exactly what I thought of him. I'd love to just kick back, wake up...
