This is an old thread, so not sure if you're still looking. I know you already said you already have the HPF & LPF in a 1590a, but this is a HPF, LPF, 24dB boost and DI all in a 125B sized enclosure. If you're a DIYer, you can get it as a kit and wire the footswitch to engage just the boost or...

I've just got the 2. 2006ish Gibson SG bass & 2019 Fender Mustang PJ. I did have an ibanez ergodyne, but sold that a few years ago, as I prefer short-scale. If I were to add a 3rd it would likely be one of the recent SS Sterlings

been a buyer and seller on eBay since 1999, but in the last few years I've converted to reverb.com. It's just easier.

I think I'm usually to the Left, but since we are, or were, primarily playing in NYC I'd usually just go to the side where the backline cab is already set up. The places we played most frequently tended to have the bass cab on stage left, but I've definitely been on the right as well. If we...

Not me and not bass related, but a drummer friend of mine was in a punk band in mid-late 90's and used to play in Henry Rollins attire (gym shorts only). He was playing a show and by the end of the first song he could feel a bubbling up in his gut. He held it in continued on. He was ok for...

Has this ever happened to you? Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Regarding if it would fit in a strat guitar gigbag, I don't have the mini P-Bass but I can say that the Fender Mustang PJ does fit in the Gator transit series electric guitar gigbag, if you remove the additional padding along the bottom and around the headstock; also fits my 2006 Gibson SG bass...

I have a 2006 or 2007 Gibson SG bass with the "worn" finish, for something like $700-750; it was a store demo. Replaced that terrible stock gibson bridge with a hipshot, but started having problems with the posts pulling out of the body. Then a few years ago I discovered Gibson had started...

Not a compliment of me but I just remembered another one. We played a show in Brooklyn and went out to a bar the next night for my singer's gf's birthday. While I was talking to the singer this guy who looked like he had been rolling around in filth all night walked up to us and said, "you guys...

Opened for World Inferno Friendship Society at a "secret show" on a Sunday announced the day of the show. For them it was a tune-up before a tour in Europe, for my band it was one of the biggest crowds we'd play to at that time. Even though it was announced on such short notice, probably...

I would hardly call Watt's bass lines "dumbed down" and that's hung pretty low

Jack Bruce would be my favorite on this list, but while he's not known for it, Mike Watt has been known to vocalize now and again. No love for Watt?

Here's the best I could come up with: the "E" on the headstock looks similar to the "E" in the "Egmond" logo in the image below that I found here: Invalid Link Removed That said, I can't find any Egmond brand violin style basses that have any of the wacky stuff seen in the bass OP posted...
