Yeah man so are we doing this or what lol!?

It very much does sound like a static electricity discharge. So what do I do? Is it a shielding problem of some sort???

Took the bass to a tech and he thought everything under the hood looked okay, and that it was a loose jack. He tightened the jack and we couldn't make the noise again at his shop. Thought it was fixed. Of course, I get home and the noise resumes. Very difficult to reproduce it consistently. It's...

I may be in the minority, that when my basses aren't being played, I always put them back in their cases. Where I live (Alaska), the weather experiences major swings. And to me a well-adjusted and intonated bass is important, and temp and humidity changes can have a gig effect on that so I...

I had a gig last night where, after I shut the amp off, and pulled the power plug from the wall, the standby LED remained on for maybe 5-10 minutes. This has never happened before as normally, the standby LED immediately goes off after the amp is either unplugged, or powered up. This morning...

P-bass, ha. Yes, it does one sound and it does that sound well. But not much else. Try to play some funk, metal, or modern country and a P-bass falls on its ass. I can't stand the P-Bass evangelists. The Precision is to bass what the Toyota Corolla is to cars - it'll get the jobs done, but...

Crazy that I haven't seen anyone in this thread seriously nominate Flea's sound as maximum 'Ray tone. A lot of Blood Sugar Sex Magik (and there is no greater rock bass sound than this, if you disagree you may be wrong) was recorded with Flea playing a growly, punchy, and troublesome-to-mix...

Thread winner. But is it seaworthy?

This is incredible. I came here for the five-strings and I come away not disappointed. What is this monster??

What if like Vulpeck but also I like bananas?

Why aren’t you the target audience? And if you’re not, then who is?

Can't believe how bad the color offerings are from Ernie Ball for 2021. Wonder if this is somehow covid-related, in that there's some kind of supply shortage, so EB is just clearing their warehouse of ugly black hardware and paint colors that no one wants?

Holy poopie this purple P-Bass is one of the coolest basses I have ever seen in my life. I never realized how much I wanted a purple p-bass.

Did the guys who broke into your house ever get caught?

I'm loving the photos of everyone's awesome interior design. This pic looks like a chill living room lounge and outside is a tropical rainforest.
