In response to the OP, I can't say if your Squire fretless basses are junk. I am currently playing both a VM5 Jazz and VM5 P bass. I too have ordered mine through Sweetwater. My first VM5 Jazz had a neck issue so I sent it back. Didn't cost me anything. Sweetwater took care of it. First of...

I am very happy with the Audere noise cancelling preamp myself. I've also used the J-retro. Hard to say which one is "BETTER" but both are great preamps. The beauty of the Audere is allowing me to keep the single coils in my jazz bass (which sound great) and get rid of the hum when soloing...

I agree with the OP that rigs and or strings are overrated. You can see any number of Artists changing their rig and/or strings throughout the years. They still sound like the same guys despite the changes. I remember watching Victor Wooten at NAMM in the Yamaha room playing a Yamaha 5 string...

Clapton has carved his own voice in the musical landscape. He's a legendary rock Icon who's had a long career. That's not to say all of his material is genius. To say one guitarist is "better" than another is really pointless because everyone has their own idea of what they think is musical...

Unfortunately the taxman and my wifes medical bills forces me to downsize so to speak. I'm offering up one of the finest basses I've owned (and I've owned or played a lot of boutiques). This is a fantastic instrument to say the least. I acquired it here on TB. I had it upraded by Xotic to...

I played this bass when it was at Mike's shop years ago. I remember how good it sounded and played. Good luck with the sale. Someone will be very happy.

I've played most well known boutique out there and have owned quite a few. You can add Xotic XJ-1T to the pack. It is one the most versatile j styles I've owned. Fantastic B string.

I am mostly a fingerstyle player mixed with some slap. I have the 45-130 set on a Xotic XJ-1T 5 string with alder/rosewood. I like the Flexsteels alot. I see some comparisons to other steel strings but I think these have their own voice that is bright, lively, clear,articulate, and feels...
