Definitely meant to write 6 bolt there -_- Also, not for nothing I have since also bought one of the new vintage inspired Js and it is bizarre to me at this point how good these things are for the price. Value wise I genuinely believe that nothing will beat that new passive line. Like, it is...

Just a year or so late to this party but for anyone else that happens to read I felt it worth getting this down here. Every modulation mode has at least two (often times 3) different selectable effect “clones” indicated by the LED color. Inside each different individual effect the knobs have...

On my 4 string an EMG J set was a direct swap. Nothing extra needed.

I have been using this cart for the better part of three years and it has saved my back a TON of stress. I have seen a couple posts in various threads of people asking how certain heavier or larger items get transported so I thought I should post this in case it could help anyone. It folds...

I have tried aluminum before and it was not nearly as easy to apply. I buy 66ft rolls of 2in adheasive copper tape that is conductive on both sides for about $12. They last a very very long time so between that, having superior electromagnetic properties/conductivity and the ease of use I have...

May be a little late to this party but I think a lot of people in general are missing the versatility in this. While there are many ways you can digitally split your signal (or using multiple analog devices) at a set frequency of your choosing, there is nothing else out there that will do this...

So with the full EMG treatment it sounds great. Out of all of the projects I have taken on I must say that this one was far and above the best value. Looking at under $400 all-in (including shipping) for: Open pore Ash body 6 piece roasted maple neck EMG Active J-Set EMG ABCX EMG BTC About...

It is dense ash so on the heavier side for it's size but still not bad at 8.6lbs.

Ok so I played it for about 10min and I was sold. The neck felt great although I will need to whip out the fret file and deal with a small amount of sprout. The pickups genuinely sound fantastic and I mean it just looks awesome. The main issue at hand now is that I need to crowd source the...

Heading up there in an hour to play it and make the call. May the odds be ever in my favor.

It is very clear to me that I needed to hear exactly this. Not only is it more evident than ever that I should buy this bass but also that my gut feeling of buying 4 instead of 1 was spot on. If two people on the internet agree on something it is to be taken as peer reviewed findings on the...

My Stingray Special identifies as a garden tractor but somehow still manages to allow me to make through a 4 hot gig without shoulder or neck pain. I think I may be on to something here.

I for one was taught at a very young age that is not how much hard work and sacrifice you put into achieving something. It is all just about accepting that no matter what it is I will undoubtedly be the best at it. Just like all the other kids in my class. If one of my basses identified as a...

I mean air is free and I leave mine out in the sun all day so you have a very strong argument here. Peer review needed.

I guess worst case scenario I have a set emgs laying around and a maple/rosewood jazz neck off a 2020 American professional hangin on the wall all lonely.
