    No longer available Delete

    Delete I ended up selling it via feebay only to have UoooPS beat it up and replace it. I figured that it was meant to remain here so I'm keeping it for the uBass. Sorry for being away so long. Cheers!

    Ubass intonation terrible, help...

    Finn: I just read your thread about Pahoehoe strings. If someone locally had them then I could compare to aftermarket strings. Mine is fretless so I want a smooth string or a wrapped one. Wish I played for pay.

    Ubass intonation terrible, help...

    Replaced the original carbon composite nut on the HOG with a bone nut today. It was time for new strings anyway so I brought it to my luthier. He oiled it and corrected what it needed. Year old sounds better than new. Now it sounds like an upright unplugged. Too nice not to play everyday.

    More than just roots

    I just joined a Uke group and their chord letter song sheets are online. Never heard these songs before and the ones I find on utube are all Uke.

    Kala UBass Megathread, Part 7

    I cannot say the same because I only had the hog a week before I decided to return it to Kala for a new one. The heel seam had a definite edge, as if wasn't sanded flush. Acoustically it sounded great, felt great and helped me play better. The rest of the instrument was flawless. My hands are...

    Bad Experience with MF Forum Deal

    I kinda had a similar experience through email. I think they are on commission or some sort of incentive other than keeping their job. So I went with fullcompass and asked if they could do better than MAP for a descent order. Just ask when you are ready to buy.

    Don't get the replacements. They are die cast. Ask for the real ones. The mahogany acoustic has them.

    Kala UBass Megathread, Part 7

    LOL. How about rolling the strings when your just trying to bend a bit? I'm learning not to roll by teaching my left hand a trigger finger excercise.

    Kala UBass Megathread, Part 7

    So are you going to return it? I like the way it looks and would have ordered a fretless version. However, I wanted real hipshots, solid pieces, etc. That's where the extra 100 smackers for the acoustic mahogany goes.
