RIP. I always appreciated his posts and thoughtful replies. TB will not be the same without his input. Sending good vibes to his family and friends.

Don't forget harvest gold appliances. My Robin is seafoam green, but it looks weird in every photo.

Ryan at Robb's is a pretty good guy. I'll miss Mars because it was a lot closer than the drive to Boulder. All of the Mars warranty work moved up to Vacuum Tube Supplies on Santa Fe. I haven't visited them (yet), but my guitar player did and he was impressed with them.

Amen. Congratulations, and you have my vote.

FWIW, I have a Mighty Mite Jazz neck that I purchased that already had the decal. JZ

I, too, have a dream. I've been thinking of putting together one just like yours, except putting a bound/blocked maple neck like the ones on the "70s reissue". Did both the body and the scratch plate both come from Warmoth? Thanks! Jeremy

I have a Bass Multiwave Pro. There's really nothing quite like it out there. I really enjoy using the expression pedal feature to get things a little weird. Can I get in the cool kids' club?

Yeah, that was exactly the issue. Thanks for your help, line6man. I feel pretty silly and long-winded posting about my issue instead of just using my multimeter. JZ

The trouble I was having was that the neck volume wasn't cutting the sound completely, and seemed to be doing some "interacting" with the bridge volume (this is what happens when I let someone else wire up a bass). I was pretty irritated. After all of my consternation, I got out the...

I hate to resurrect this thread, but I'm having issues with the tone control of the louder pickup behaving like a master tone in addition to the volume blending issues, and it looks like you've conquered this wiring diagram. My setup is a Lindy Fralin P with a Duncan hot stacked jazz into two...

I've been lurking and getting Ampeg wisdom since coming to TB a few years ago. I can't think of a more deserving endorser/champion for Ampeg/Loud. Jimmy's a goldmine for 'em when it comes down to it. Congratulations, Jimmy. JZ

I've been lurking on this thread since the M87 got such rave reviews at NAMM. I picked one up at a local shop two Saturdays ago, and finally found the time to fiddle with the pedal over this past weekend. I'm not much of a compressor wizard (really never have used one in a pedal, except in...

Ditto on that. Glen at Mars does great work, but currently has a 2 week wait time (I JUST dropped off one of my Mesas over the weekend). Once he gets to it, it's usually a really quick turnaround. Ryan at Robb's always seems to get to stuff really fast, but I haven't had as good luck...

Got one over the weekend at a local independent shop. I haven't had an opportunity to dink around with it--they shackled me in the studio with a Sta-Level, so there was really no need for the MXR. I'm completely new to compression in my rig, I just always love what my bass sounds like in the...

I had a good time, despite having to play with a broken foot on chairs and stools and narcotics. Both of my bands, Bad Luck City and Ross Etherton and the Chariots of Judah made the Backbeat "travelogue" by Tom Murphy, [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]. Bad Luck City has a couple of...
