add me to the list, Ibanez SR- candy apple red. I had a Rogue and a Squier 5 string prior to this. Both were decent but this seems to be much better.

I picked up a new Ibanez SR 255. Seems to be a nice bass, but I was wondering if there were any pros or cons that I should be aware of. It's a 5 string with active pups. Thanks

Well, the Max 112 200 watt arrived yesterday afternoon and I found that I liked the tone and it seems to have versatility to its tone. Sunday will be the trial run with Glory Bound, we'll see how the built in DI works and Friday I'll test it for volume with the Distoniks. Keep you posted.

The 35 watt 112 sells for $199. The 200 watt sells for $249.

From what I read about it sounds like a lot of bang for buck. My first bass amp was a Peavey TNT 130, that was back in 1988, great amp. I needed something with more power, easy to carry and something that I wouldn't have to worry about on the bar circuit.

There is no stamp on the headstock. I confirmed the body by comparing it by one I saw on the web, same color.The Squier had a matching color headstock. Sorry about the picks I am having trouble posting them.

Here is a Fender/Squire P J bass I purchased at a local music store. It has a Fender neck, but I am unable to identify the year because the serial numbers are not on the headstock. The body from what I was able to research is a Squire P Bass special body which Squier made from 1998 to 2008. I...

Oops! I forgot to add that I wanted passive pups.

I was checking those out, they seem like high end pups, thanks

Hi I was originally going to build a j bass, but I ended up finding a cool Fender p j hybrid that I am going to modify. I want this bass to be versatile to cover different styles of music. I had in mind for the j pup a Carvin stacked, I think it is like 16k and for the p between a Fender 62...

I am looking to build a jazz style bass and been looking at MightyMite maple neck and swamp ash body,are their products good? I have been buying" off the rack" for years, but I do have a Frankinbass in my collection that I have used live and in the studio. Looking to do a better build. Thanks.

I prefer flats on fret less, rounds on everything else.

Hi I am planning a budget bass build and I was wondering what the best wood for the buck was. I thought three good candidates were alder, agathist, or pawlwian, excuse my spelling on these. Basically, I was thinking about $50-60 for the body.My other option was to buy a bass made out of these...
