D'Addario NYXL Long Scale Super Light 40-95

Cons: Not the cheapest out there. Not the...

These strings have a "brighter than Nickel, less raspy than Stainless" quality to them. They do not shred your fingers or frets, stay in tune, and hold their tone really well. Tension is great; enough "bounce" without ever being floppy. I...

I had a chance to use an old goliath III at a buddies house for a metal jam. I brought my trusty peavey tour 700 head and my ESP B304 Bass. Only to discover it had two blown speakers. It still cut through two marshall half stacks and a loud...

After renouncing Jazz basses for a few years, I eventually pulled a Darth Vader and went from the mellow tones of the Precision to the gnarly bite of its two pickup cousin. This was the best-looking Squier bass I have ever seen, as the neck is a...

At first glance, many will pass this off as another "good, but not great" pedal, simply based off the fact that it's made by Boss. But when you actually plug it in, set the rate around 12:00 and crank the depth, it immediately becomes apparent...
