Playing a Ric didn't make you hate Rickenbacker, you said it sounded and felt great, a finish issue made you hate rickenbacker apparently, let's be clear, because that's really what's got your goat, also, I have been hard pressed to see a "flawless" Squier like previously mentioned.

A couple of my personal basses that I really dig the headstocks of, and I for sure have got my eye on the "o" bass for when we can get them here in the US, and I really dig the headstock and the looks all around! I've owned a lot of Fenders, and I love them, don't get me wrong, but I've always...

All I have to say is I'm in love with my 212 neo paired with my rb1001, I run my MIA jazz highway one through it, never needed any more power, either low end of mid's or high end punch, usually I plug in and crank it a little more than necessary and punch everybody in the face with a little too...

Totally 100% agree haha, the only emotion I felt was confusion and the only "musical language" I was picking up on was, those "note words" don't belong together haha

Yeah I'm pretty much tired of hearing every bassist I talk to list Jaco as their favorite bassist. I respect his skill, I definitely respect guys like him and Victor and all.. I just don't really listen to that kind of "bassist" music on the regular or really dig it all that much. I'm not really...

Yeah I've bought a number of basses since I bought my mia highway one J Bass, I've had a mark hoppus p, I've had a couple of peavey milestones I've completely revamped with all new pickups and hardware, a danelectro hodad, which is kinda fun admittedly because it's a short scale... no matter...

I've been a singer/bassist in a handful of punk bands, and I like to write fairly noodley bass parts, I just write all the more complicated to be when I'm not singing, it definitely gets easier to be able to do more walking type parts while singing with time and experience, if I'm holding a note...

So what you would be referring to would be like the 90 east bay pop punk scene. Screeching Weasel and green day started on the same label, lookout records, and most of the bands had a more poppy flare, and a basis in the Ramones style, love songs, songs about girls, not entirely, but they...

I've got this old Lero hollowbody shortscale I have similar plans for, mod away my friend, mod away...

It's a new year and I'm already planning my years purchases, but just waiting until I'm more flush in the cash department to drop money on definitely one maybe two new basses... I've been gassing for an Ibanez Talman for a while now. I haven't ever really been an Ibanez fan but I...

I've been playing in punk bands for ten years, I currently play a GK RB1001 ii through a GK neo 212 and have had no need for anymore power. You could probably even get by with a smaller GK head just fine. Of all of the touring punk bands and recordings I've heard within the last 10-15 years the...

The best growly tone I've played or heard, jazz bass, all neck pick up no bridge pup. That's what I'd call growly in the best way

I prefer the "jerkweaselle"
