YES this is perfect thanks man!

Hmmm I guess these are pictures of broken basses... But think of what would look good on a shirt, or on our case a sweater. Like a graphic of a broken bass, something simple, not like an actual picture I think that would be too complex for a shirt. Thank for replying though! I'll keep...

Hey guys, So at my school we are making shirts for the bass section. The shirt will say "Drop the bass, they said! (picture) It would be fun, they said! So my problem is that we can't find a picture to put on it of a broken upright bass or something. Any ideas? We aren't too good at drawing so...

Yeah I definitely need some new tuners... I'm missing a knob lol... And the pickups on here are terrible.

And how does one add an active preamp? That sounds pretty hard hahaha

Oooo I like these ideas! Hahaha how hard is replacing the pickups? Is it possible to add strings? Or is that not really a do-it-yourself project?

Is a Hamer Slammer, precision style. Not sure of the exact model, like I said, I got it for really cheap, and the nut was broken. It's probably not that expensive... And I didn't even use epoxy lol I just sanded it down and filled in the holes with some quickwood stuff my bass teacher gave me...

And I'll definately do some research into IU, depaul, and NEC. I honestly don't think I can get into northwestern though, my academics are not that great...

Yeah I am, I'm just mostly unsure about my classical auditions though because I feel like when I play jazz, It just flows... I don't worry as much when I play jazz i love the improvisational aspect of it and the audition requirements are generally much more straightforward. Classical is so much...

Hey guys, so I bought a cheap bass from my brother, who bought it from his friend for $30. I've decided that I want to really mess with it so I want to change it as much as I can on my own. so far I DEFRETTED it! But I wanna really change this baby! any other cool home-customizing ideas you...

Thanks alot guys! So far i'm looking into visiting Oberlin for sure, and since I'm already in Illinois I can go visit IU and northwestern! Id love to visit California too, I heard there are a few good schools there, but that would definately not be easy! Maybe I can visit UNT if we feel like...

thanks so much you guys, ChicagoDoubler asked about any excerpts i'm playing too, my teacher has given me one from Mozart 1st mov. 4th symphony, and one more which i think is Brahms (I need to get my music more organized!) and the contrasting piece from the Dragonetti i was planning on doing...

hey guys, :help: i'm looking at some colleges that might be a good fit for me and i'm not very good at this sort of research haha :p. I'm definitely looking for a university rather than a conservatory. I have heard some colleges say you have to be either JUST CLASSICAL or JUST JAZZ, and i'm...

well, if your looking for a cheaper bass, iv got a peavey millenium, and it was my first bass but i really didnt see the need for any other one in my price range (which is quite low), because it's super versatile, especially for a bass without active pickups, and all those fancy knobs!

Let's say I was to play... The charlie brown theme song if I used the RC-20 cud I play the lower piano part than loop it and play the high part live? And if so is that what I be limited to or cud I even loop both those together and play a completely different part live while those two were going...
