    anybody out there play acoustic basses?

    Yea, I owned one for about a year. Honestly I hated it, I have played a lot of different acoustic basses at the store and never really found one that was worth the money. I know the victor bailey acoustic is a cool looking bass with a reliatively good feel for an acoustic model, but I just don't...

    Hey punk rock bassists: what bass do you play for finger style??!

    Fender P/J Bass, stanless steel rounds, seymour duncan quarter pounders. = ) To me nothing sounds better. For fingers I mix in more high mids and treble on my amp to get that clank punk punch sound. I know a select few punk / pop-punk bassist also use a Gibson Grabber, which is a really...

    Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass VS. Music Man StingRay HH

    Oh yea, that is a good point about the length of the neck. I didn't even think about that. I am still considering upgrading the neck on my Squier to a maple, maybe a mexican p-bass neck will fit. But, I have made my decision. I ordered the American Deluxe P-Bass yesterday.... needless to say...

    Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass VS. Music Man StingRay HH

    Yea I am heading to the store tonight to try out a couple different fender models to get an idea of the quality, tone, etc. Unfortunately I still can't find a store near me that has a precision deluxe in stock so if I go down that road I might just have to order it online and return it to GC...

    Fender Bass Construction Question???

    LOL Thanks. Didn't realize I was setting up a stats problem. Let me properly state the hypothesis. So Therefore: Ho: Hole under the bridge is for grouding wire. Ha: Hole under the bridge is not for grouding wire. Conclusion: Fail to reject Ho, the hole under the bridge is for the...

    Fender Bass Construction Question???

    Yea, I am referring to this apparent "gouge" under the bridge area. So that is for grouding? or transfer between CNC??

    Fender Bass Construction Question???

    Interesting, the grounding makes sense. Only when I took my Squier apart, I didn't see a wire of any kind?? Is that a fact, or guess? It sounds good I just thought the grounding was done at the 1/4" jack? I like the theory that it's a pivot point for a manufacturing arm when the body is...

    Fender Bass Construction Question???

    Here is an interesting question, of which I am not to sure what the correct answer is. Nearly every fender bass body I have ever seen with the hardware removed has this decent size scratch hole underneath the bridge. Even my mid-90's squier has this strange dug-out scratch mark. I can only...

    Worst bass for metal?

    I would have to say the worst bass for metal is any bass that has good quality tone/sound LOL. Just grab a POS BC Rich and go to town. I would say the worst bass for metal is anything worth more than $200 bucks. :hiding:

    Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass VS. Music Man StingRay HH

    I have considered getting an older used P-bass deluxe but at this juncture I really want to buy new or near new. I am also not to terribly fond of the P-Bass with that large bridge humbucker pickup, just looks odd to me. But that's just me. Thanks for your input. :hyper:

    Fender American Deluxe Precision Bass VS. Music Man StingRay HH

    Yea man I hear yea, that's exactly what the dudes at guitar center said. Another one of my issues though, is just the look of the two.... to me that precision bass is a more attractive bass... you know it has that all around classic look. I just need to seriously consider both prior to...
