well i got with ernie ball and it looks like they claim cobalts dont fit long scale bass and tell me i got lucky with the other sets ( carification dozens of 4 string sets on 2 seperate long scale basses, been a while but i tink i even put a set of cobalts on an old rogue 5 string bass i use to...

no longer need a diagram, turns out they are all teh same whether you go cheapo chinese or you pay for a more expensive name brand unit so im using cheapo chinese diagram. also side note for anyone interested, before buying an aquilar, bartolini, etc. do some visual online looking, the name...

traben used one of these, unfortunatley neither posted pic quite matches how my array obsession is wired. 3 pots off of eq, check. but the mini toggle, volume and ( i assume) neck to bridge pup pot confusing. closest i have found is the toggle one above but it doesnt show the extra pot the...

honestly i like the cobalt roundwounds personally, i can say that there is one problem i recently discovered of the cobalt bass strings when it comes to the 5 string set, and that on a traben array obsession you cant run them trough body because the winding ends just short of the nut under...

anyone have a wiring diagram for a stock traben array obsession 5 string bass with the b and G 3 band eq? i just got this one today but i do not htink it is wired correctly as there are a couple sopt that looks like wires were soldered in certain locations at one point and were removed, also...

ok here are my thoughts, i have the fretless version of the aeb5 ( the aeb5FE) which is more rare than the standard aeb5 with that said it is a great bass with the right strings, so far i can say that the following bass strings suck on the aeb5fe 8 stock ibanez, d'addario, and fender strings are...

i was dragged to a TB topic during a search which was discussing scratched pickups and using plasti-dip but was unable to post in the OLD thread but i did have sort of an answer for that op and also some information that would prove useful for the op of another old TB thread. so here goes. 1...

purple crackle was made in 87-89 time frame.

sorry guys but i rebuilt the circuit board and sold the EBM-5 a LOOONG time ago. i had no idea the thread was still up LOL. only basses i have now are 4 string, and are an ibanez sr400QM cherry sunburst, and a trabean phoenix bass blood red.

sorry to hear you guys dont like the "sound gear" designation however not all soundgears are the same i quite enjoy my SR400QM but to be fair mine is one of the older discontinued cherry sunburst ones which my play a part as well as i use ernie ball cobalt strings. but i to can wish for...

fender bassman 400 are problematic at best 3 bad ones for me personally and 4 through the shop that needed repaired so id say good luck to the op. with that said I recommend ditching it fast and getting a GK, a 500 watt MB210-II combo amp is 630 to 699 brand new and is far superior in sound and...

i have been researching this and i am seeing mixed information however most of it pertains to combo amps which is not exactly what i am trying to find out. OK, with that out of the way what i am looking for information wise is the following: can you use a guitar tube amp HEAD ( specifically a...

dont like the fx25b, so sorry to hear that i love mine and wouldnt trade it for anything. the low volume when engaged is easily remedied with a clean boost after it. the original fx25 is good but the fx 25 and fx25b were 2 different pdeals the fx25 was originally intended for guitar not bass...

i know necro thread but did you fix it, trash it? just wondering because i just happen to have the PDF schematics and parts list for the ole fx25b ;).

ok lets use this lets take the yugo as the veneer and the ferrari as the , well, the veneer since they are both cars, unless you want to use them as examples of opposites in which case it could be argued that those to cars are built different and for a purpose and wood is not ( unless it is...
