    Broken Bass Guitar Stand

    Amazon.com: FretRest by Proline FRMS1 Mandolin/Uke Stand: Musical Instruments I have a bass guitar stand similar to this Ukulele stand with a T bar I need to replace. I like these stands and they do not appear to be made any longer. Any suggestions for a suitable substitute or fix ?

    Discontinued Ashula Bass

    I recently learned of the SR2010ASC Ashula hybrid bass. After what appears to be a period of eighteen months, this instrument is no longer in production. What caused this instrument in particular (and any instrument) to be discontinued ?

    Tone: Range or versatility. (poll)

    Punch is relative, dependent on the music you play. Tonal range is a variable that makes the instrument flexible. There are all sorts of tricks and devices that put punch in your playing but nothing can make a single sound guitar anything but. Tone is everything and tonal flexibility is a very...

    Need Steinberger Pivot Plate

    Does anyone have any idea how to make, acquire, or install a Steinberger pivot plate (like those on the L series bass for attaching the shoulder strap) ? http://www.talkbass.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=46467&d=1164847818. I want to use it on an NS Stick style eight string bass.

    Cab before head?

    I'd wait. No reason to spend money on either unless a) you're getting a great price, or b) you're purchasing something hard to find. I'd purchase my head and cabinet together unless one of these were true.

    The urge to only own basses of one brand?

    So far I am just the opposite. I have a Hohner, a Dingwall, an Ibanez, a Fleishman, a Harley Benton, a Watson, a Line Six, two different era Asbury basses, and a fretless multi scale project bass I pieced together. Every guitar has a different voice and serves a different purpose. Having said...

    Why are six-string ABG's so rare?

    Carbon fiber guitars have a distinct sound. Think Ovation. If that's what you have in mind, great, if not ...

    Why are six-string ABG's so rare?

    I emailed Alex who said the seven string probably costs around $5000 depending on options and the six string costs around $4500 but in either case he could try to offer forgiving payment plans (not a small amount of money but not a second mortgage either). Contact Alex with any questions.

    Which Micro Head?

    I own and LOVE the (discontinued) Euphonic Audio iAmp 800. Nineteen pounds probably doesn't qualify as a "micro amp" but the EA is so clean it will make you think it doesn't work at all, and capable (with the right accessories) of anything. If you can find one check it out. I don't like the new...

    TOSIN ABASI

    Abasi plays songs that neither fly away without a foundation or stumble along with standard / traditional bass licks we've all heard before. They have relentless drive with or without a drummer. Odd time signatures and time structures rock, often feeling like a solid four beat when the reality...
