    Chromes ECB80 Super Light are the best flats for P bass

    I use 105-50 Chromes on my P w/ covers and mute and 100-45 Chromes on my fretless P. I typically play just behind the pickup on the fretless, so the higher tension actually balances out between the neck and cover on the fretted P. My most disliked flats so far: Rotosound Jazz 77 Monel Flats Holy...

    Which J basses have thick necks?

    Sorta on topic: I also play guitar, and I always find it amusing how tiny my Jazz neck feels after playing my Les Paul Reissue for a while.

    Bass older than you?

    While not an entire instrument, my '77 Fender fretless neck (that I've had for 31 years) is a day younger than me... because I was born on Sunday when the plant was closed, lol.

    Minor Guitar Center Rant

    I had to work my first retail job a while back. They constantly reminded us to greet the customers and "not let them feel ignored". Yeah, well, guess what... most people don't like it. (Remember Radio Shack?!) I ended up avoiding customers because they were unnecessarily rude 80% of the time...

    Fender serial number not matching bass model colour?

    I believe in the Neck Swap Theory.

    Talkbass AI Change To Naughty or Rude Words

    Correct, but don't forget about the very, very sensitive old people. It's a larger demographic here than you may realize.

    ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME ANNOUNCES NOMINEES FOR 2024 INDUCTION

    "The Music Hall of Fame". Enough with the gatekeeeping requirement of "Rock n' Roll". ...and I want more hockey players nominated for the Baseball Hall of Fame.

    Forget all the talk about which strings are best-- what is the WORST string you have ever played?

    LaBella LTFs... man, I really was hoping for something better than loose spaghetti noodles. D'addario Tapewounds... Sorry, they don't feel like tapes to me. NEWS FLASH: Because they technically aren't! (Dis)Honorable Mention... Rotosound 77s. Monel is probably the worst sounding string...

    Bassist behind Usher @ Halftime Super Bowl 58

    I've always liked Alicia, but my wife and I heard that opening note and we looked at each other with "ewwwww!" faces.

    Pre-recorded or not, this year's show was WAY better than last year's.
