    Howdy y'all I went to the punkottawa.com flea market yesterday and found a Squier P bass from 03 crafted in indonesia. I was interested to see if it was short scale (though it turned out not to be), and even more interested when I learnt the seller was asking 70$ for it and the hard case...

    i have the chance to purchase this fretless violin bass. it's made my Pan, which was affiliated with Aria back in the day. it's really cool. short scale, professionally defretted. it's going for 300$. the one thing im concerned about is the bridge, which is wooden and doesnt look to be too...

    Gentle Giant P-Bass Growl=strings?

    I'd really recommend watching the whole video cause this band is amazing, but check out 4:20 for what im talking about. His P-bass really, really growls in this. I'm thinking.. is it because of the strings? Are they flats?

    thankfully i got the faded version which is 300$ less it's still really disappointing that an instrument at about 899$ has such a problem as this.. from a manufacturer as well reputed as gibson. ridiculous.. im hoping the new strings will do something. if not, i may just get the DiMarzio...

    @DMN: i usually only play through a guitar amp (not very loudly though) or acoustically. my neighbour is awful. i was playing acoustic guitar in the kitchen and she called and complained. i'll give new strings a shot. what are the benefits of getting short scale strings as opposed to normal...

    hey all, first post here. i got my gibson sg reissue bass (short scale @ 30") back in september and when i first tried to record (with a Radial JDI box) a low thumping sound with it i noticed that any note lower than an A on the E string lacks a real punch. it's really only when i roll off...
