    Still think metronomes aren't important?

    All those who say metronomes are not important, do you mean in a live situation, because you have a drummer? Every instruction book on guitar and bass mentions the use of metronomes in the first few pages. Every video course. You’ll be in trouble if you don’t use one in your daily practices...

    Interesting Call with EBMM...

    This is correct. In my country the two brands are distributed/sold by two different stores. I spoke to the owner of the store that has the exclusive distribution for EBMM. He was very...passionate... in letting me know the two are separate business entities.

    Interesting Call with EBMM...

    Because Sterling Ball is the one running the company now and he named the budget line.

    Bass Question. OMG, I feel like a newbie!!

    Lol I’m not the only one who said you’re rude. No need for yet another outburst. Also I reported your pm. Now, to address what you said in your rant, 1) You were/are completely acting like a noob (Squier Jazz Bass), so you should forgive me for thinking you're one. 2) You asked for spec...

    Bass Question. OMG, I feel like a newbie!!

    For someone who admits to being a newbie you’re rather impatient and rude to people trying to help. Everything you want to know can be found on the internet without ever posting a question on a forum. I suggest you go that route since you seem to be incapable of being polite.

    Picked up this 62 Precision for a Steal

    I have this entire set. They are truly amazing. I wish they would make more, they're a far cry from the Axe Heaven models, where the QC is all over the place.

    Why aren't PJ basses more popular and more available?

    I have an MIM Fender PJ Bass hanging 3 feet from me. A Mustang.

    Your favourite PASSIVE short scale bass with just one pickup is...?

    It was very clear what you meant. Your post wouldn’t have made sense the other way: “This is not a short scale bass but here it is anyway because I like to reply with information completely irrelevant to what’s asked.”

    Fender neck made in Mexico or US ?

    You bought out the stock because of an obvious mistake in the copy? Fender necks in the $200 range are MIM.

    MIJ Ibanez are Prestige. I know it’s confusing.

    Help with getting started playing bass at a church

    As a Christian and worship leader at my church, I’m shocked at what you’re planning to do. I’m equally surprised at the many replies giving you tips on how to go about it, but very glad a few others eventually explained it correctly. I can’t imagine a church in my country that would be okay with...

    counterfit Les Paul

    Sure they probably are overpriced by most people’s standards, but you don’t need that Gibson name on your guitar either.

    PSA: control your humidity!!!!

    OP mentioned fret sprout on his brother’s bass. The body type has no bearing on that.

    PSA: control your humidity!!!!

    Interesting. I actually run a dehumidifier, originally more for my other collectibles. Where I am the humidity is above 80% year round. I’ve never had a problem even before I ran a dehumidifier; most of my guitars are solidbodies.

    Shipper wants to under insure bass to avoid fees.

    As already mentioned, you don’t need the shipment to be insured to be protected by credit card or PayPal. Just make a claim through them if there’s anything wrong, seller is taking the risk here.
