    Stripped truss rod

    It's already in the works. The customer service has been outstanding thus far into the experience. I've played and owned a few of Ned's previous instruments over the years and am of the same opinion. I found out that the instruments made in Indonesia (WAV) like mine, as well as the Czech...

    Stripped truss rod

    Stripped truss rod

I've been setting up my own basses for years and am always mindful as to not let this happen. So my...

    SWR vs GK

    SWR vs GK

    Hi guys! I'll get right to it...... Currently, I am powering an Eden 4x10 and 1x10 with a GK 1001RB (700 wt) which I love BUT............the longer it's on it starts to get a fuzziness that is simply unacceptable. I am interested an SWR SM 500. My issue is financial as I am one of those disabled...
