    Has anyone ever just give you an instrument

    Nope, no one ever gave me a guitar, but I've given several away. The smile and appreciation is always priceless.

    No longer available Squier Vintage Modified Jazz V

    Excellent condition. Weighs about 10.5#. No case or gig bag. Wearing flats now, but will include rounds. Prefer local sale in western Washington as shipping cost is ridiculous at the moment.

    No longer available EBMM Stingray 5H heavyweight!

    Ok, if you are a weight weiner like me, this is not for you. This tone monster is a hair under 11#. I got this as a back up for my other bandmates to use on gigs and practice while I use my other lighter weight basses. It's a 2005 in Sapphire Black. Kinda a black/blue/gray metallic color. It's...

    SOLD Ibanez AFR5 WAP

    Thanks for those kind and true words! Used it on a gig last weekend and other band members who also play bass were amazed as well and would buy it if they had the spare change. I will give someone else a chance here for a week or so and may just keep it.

    How long had you played, and how old were you when your bought your first "expensive" bass?

    Hi, my name is Tom. Been playing rythm for about 30 years. My bass addiction started during the covid lock down with my first bass being a cheap Ibanez SR200. It quickly became 10 basses within a couple months to figure out what fit me best. My first expensive (to me) bass was an EBMM Stingray...

    Nordstrand Zen Blade

    Thanks for the suggestions guys. Is it okay to have one pickup in series and the other in parallel and if okay, which one should have switch, neck or bridge?

    Nordstrand Zen Blade

    Got a question for you Zen masters. I got a bass with a pair of Zen Blades with an Audere Classic 4 band. I have a toggle switch that is not connected and previous owner had no clue on what it was for. I first thought it was an A/P switch, but don't think preamp can be wired with it. Any...

    SOLD Ibanez AFR5 WAP

    I really like this bass as it's light (8# 2.2oz), very comfortable sitting or standing, balanced and sounds as good as it looks. I decided I really like simple looking basses, so looking for your typically shaped jazz, precision or MM style. 5 strings, but must be under 9# and balance well...
