    Bridge starting to come off

    Yes, it's the 3 point bridge. Thank you! I shall do that at once. And that's good to know about the front stud. Jeez...these things should come with instruction manuals! :P

    Bridge starting to come off

    I have an Epiphone Thunderbird, about 1.5 years old. It has the Tune-o-Matic bridge. Today I changed my strings, and before I did I took the bridge off to clean it. It slides backwards off the pegs holding it in place. After that, I put it back on and put on the strings, only I kept hearing...

    Bass sounds muffly when playing through headphones, and cuts out

    This is brilliant. Thank you all so much! It does seem to be the cable, but I think I'm going to try to learn to solder too, just in case. And yes....I shall be looking into wireless.... (chord/cord mixup - I can't believe I did that. How embarrassing!)

    Any Ontario bassists here?

    My hometown is Burlington (lived here for 23 years!) but I'm in Kingston 8 months out of the year for school (Queen's students represent!) I've only been playing since Oct. 1 (yeah, less than a month) so I probably wouldn't go to any GTGs, but maybe some day... :)

    William Murderface Appreciation Thread

    No lie, I play bass - a semi-replica of Murderface's bass, even - because of Murderface. I want to be just like him someday, minus the uh, lisp, gnarled ding dong (don't have one) and questionable personal hygiene. Can I be the next in line for the Murderface fan club? (not sure what number...
