    I never get tired of opening this case

    The ebony board and black hardware sold me on this bass. In my opinion It just wouldnt look right with rosewood. This thing basically plays itself. I have never had another instrument that plays like this bass. Its a level of perfection I didnt even know existed. I have played a lot of high end...

    I never get tired of opening this case

    Yup. I didnt expect that when I ordered it, though. I absolutely love the way the light changes the color. I feel like Sweetwater should do a better job of capturing this style of finish. When you spend this much on a bass I feel like there should be no surprises involved. I am lucky that it was...

    Question about old strings and intonation

    Its no secret that we bass players love the way old strings sound. Recently I had intonation issues that I could not resolve. No matter how much I adjusted things using my tuner it would not correct. As soon as I changed my strings the intonation was spot on. How do people deal with strings...

    Question about an issue I am having with intonation.

    I recently purchased a new Fender American pro 2 Jazz bass. I am having an issue that is really frustrating with my new bass. Even though my intonation is very close and checks out between the open string and 12th fret, my bass just does not sound right. It is playing out of tune even though the...

    New Bass Day!

    This beauty arrived this morning and I am already in love. Sweetwater did a great job setting up this bass just how I like it.

    I purchased this recently and I love it!

    My mother also said that it is a wonderful coffee table book last week when she came over to my place.

    RUNNING ON EMPTY (G.A.S.) ?

    I feel like it is truly an American thing. People in less developed countries more than likely dont have this issue. They seem to make due with very little. They are probably happier than most of us living in a more modern society with endless option as consumers. This is just my thoughts on...

    Looking for some advice. I basically always use the auto mode to simplify things. What settings would you use? I am looking for a punchy sound but any suggestions would be great.
