    The Dumbest Accident You Had With A Bass

    Got a shiny warmoth J neck to finish a project I was putting together. When installing the ferrules, one didn't want to go in all the way due to a roughly cut hole. Instead of looking for anything that may work better, I grabbed a flathead screwdriver and tried to chisel out some of the...

    Please Help Make Bass Fun Again For Me

    I had a similar ordeal. What worked for me was changing things up. After almost two years of hardly touching an instrument, I started making, oddly enough, making video game music covers at home. It really broke the rut of learning cover band songs, and allows plenty of creativity since much of...

    Stupid things your bandmates have said.

    Something about guitar brings out the worst in people. Never mind the Shecter Hellraiser in my lap. Anyways, Paraphrased, but frightening none the less. "Well there's no 3 pronged socket available, let's just break off the ground on the amp's plug." I talked him out of it, but he put up a...

    Best cheap 5 strings?

    I faced this problem recently and wound up with the sr-375m. Sounds and feels great, but the preamp could be better, though that comes with the price territory. Make sure you get one of the newer ones though, I've heard the older models had a much worse preamp/pickup combo. I don't know which...
