nope, never have. I picked up some nicklewound d'arrdio's today, but I haven't had the change to string my bass (I've got SATs this week, so i don't wanna distract myself that much). I'll look for hi beams though

Ok, so I've had issues a lot. I can't seem to find strings that i like. I've tried a variety of strings, including slinkies (I liked the tone, but they last for about 3 days) blue steels(awesome, absolutely awesome, for about 7 minutes) nicklewound d'arddios or whatever (don't REALLY remember...

Lol, people are dicks. I liked it. As much as it was noise oriented, it was cool.

I am just kidding, but, honest to god almighty, if I play close enough to the bridge (about at the edge of my pickup, where I normally pick) there's no difference in sound. trust me, I've tried. I've tested.

d'arcy, chick; guy from interpol, goth; bassists from the Smashing Pumpkins, mostly chicks. All use picks. On the flip side- Flea, man; Claypool, man; Wooten, manly man. Either use finger or slap (or both AT THE SAME TIME). Like I said though, my bass doesn't distinguish pick from finger

very new strings (blue steels :bawl:). I'm not good with a pick. Plus my bass doesn't really the the difference; pick or finer, it gets a pretty crisp sound. Plus, picks are for girls

To clarify, not saying that a Peavey Combo 300 isn't a bad idea (grant bang for the buck), but I want something with NO, I mean NO mud or muffled low ends. I mean, I want the CLEAREST lows that you can hear. I hate to use another nirvana allusion, but listen to in bloom. The f# that Krist plays...

Hi, I have a 15 watt fender rumble, and it's clear to me that I need a new amp. I have an OLP stingray, and I'm looking for a better, louder amp. I'm really not looking for something on the deep end; I really want something with great, ringing mids and treble, and packs a ******** of punch...

Anyone know where to install the 9volt in a beringer compressor sustainer pedal (CS100)? I've unscrewed it, but I have no idea

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] O.k., none of them are great, but I'd appriciate it if someone comented on them. For clarification, I've been playing for about 6 months.

It's a question im sure pops into every beginner's head; am i making progress, or do I straight up suck. I've been playing for about 6 months now on a Stagg Bc300 (joy of all joys), and I'm wondering, given my taste in music (rage against the machine & the chili peppers) how well should I be...

you stole my song. Honestly, there aren't to many rage songs that AREN't bass oriented. That said, none of them are all that hard. having said that, without a face comes into mind

Ok, i've got a pretty goofy amp. I bought it used for a good price, but upon playing on it, i noticed something kind of weird. Occasionally, when i play my bass, a weird click will be heard. Sounds a lot like chalk being tapped on a blackboard. It only seems to happen when I touch a string; i...

hmm. Bass: Fender p-bass, Fender J-bass, OLP stingray. All plain white- i'll "customize" them with a couple of sharpies, stickers, and spraypaint. Amp: anything better than the clicking P.O.S i have now. goddamn rumble 15 piece...

Link Removed the bc-300n. it has an identical shape to the fender p-bass and 3 volume knobs, but i'm pretty sure the body is smaller. here are the specs: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
