Greetings, I normally string my base with .100, .080, .065 and 0.045 roundwounds, if I want to try a .105 E-string is there anything I need tyo be aware of tension wise? Tks

Thanks, I am switching back to rounds and will restring on the weekend. I am really just a hobbyist, but where this one is, is a real annoyance for me.

Could a dead spot be created by using different strings? For example if the tension on the neck was changed could this affect the resonance of the neck in away the a dead spot may be more noticable. I have a real nasty on the 5th fret of my E string (A). I do not seem to recall noticing it when...

The Arts in Newmarket have a good crew but the selection of Bass Gear can be hit or miss. I did buy a bass and an amp there and was treated very well. I have been back for strings and have always had a postive experience at this store. I have only one buying experience at Club Bass, it was a...

The standard Stingray is available with two neck options, thicker with a 1.625" nut width (standard) and thinner with a 1.500" nut width, SLO version (similar to the Sterling) factor in multiple pick up combo's and you should be good to go.

Thanks

Wow great pair, specially the purple The model I am looking at was made in Mid 2008, thus I think it may have the wider, beefier neck I appreciate your help

Re: thickness/width, would this be similar to a thicker 1.75" P-bass profile? Great Looking Bass Tks

Can anyone give me any minor details concenring a Ric 4004L neck?. I have no chance of checking one out and have read a few things which have me confused. Any idea of the neck thickness, some info I have read leave me to believe they are rather thick? The Ric site shows a 1 11/16 nut width, is...

Will heed the advice, the dealer where I bought it told me that it should always stay on since he did not think there was any thermostat in the unit. Thanks again Cheers !

I guess I may have an issue, it's pretty much brand new with about 25 hours worth of playing time at low volume. It seems the fan runs constantly when it's on. Not sure if there should be a break in period although I doubt that should affect the fan. Tks

I appreciate your comments, thanks

I have a new Markbass little Mark 250 head, and have a couple of questions for anyone who may be able to help out. 1) Does the fan stay on all the time? 2) Can I use the tuner output for headphones? Tks

Would the amp have to work harder with an 8 ohm cab vs the 4ohm cab?

Add the other 8" and you have a whopping 25 Lb mini stack, its crazy light. Great "sound per pound" set up.

-10% until midnite tonite, or so I think

Thank you for the comments and insight. I currently have the 8" as well as the 8" extension cab. I do enjoy this set up, but feel that I need some more lower bass dispersion if that make sense. I have not tried either the 12 or 15 with the shuttle. I did try a Walkabout Combo with the 12" and it...

Greetings, has any one every put these 2 together? Primarily for 70's blues and rock. I like to use a VT pedal with the shuttle to add some warmth Purley recreational application Cheers Tks

I live an hour North of TO, I blew a chance to grab a 2008 -4003 Fireglo in pristine condition about a year ago, $ 1700.00 give or take a few toonies. I have seen a few close to the number above from US internet dealers, once you add the taxes, freight, brokerage etc your close to 2 K. Not sure...

+1 , although there most recent offering has somewhat of a vintage 60-70's vibe, which I love.

Thanks mates, Cheers !

When installing flats, do I need to cut the string length similar to when installing rounds? Do I also need to adjust the intonation, I will be using the same string gauges as the rounds. Thanks in advance

Like previously mentioned, good for mobile practice and very portable. I do have a very good set of headphones thus the sound is decent. I have the bass version, not sure about the the other models.

On the EB forum site, you can go into a serial # data base, list your serial number and check it in a day or two. Someone will reply identtifyng what year it was made in.

I saw a similar set up in Nov 2008, 2 RICS, One Glaub and what I think was the Mouradian. Great show. I saw most of the Progressive Acts in the 70's, but always seemed to miss Yes, still can't figure out why.

I have the Shuttle 3 with the 8" and added the other 8", still amazed at what this little tyke can do all things being equal. I use the VT pedal at times and its uncanny what this thing puts out sound wise. Great Amp, neat pedal, lousy player, but I'm happy :)

Hmmn, I have a sterling and have played numerous stingrays. Although the thickness is minimal, I always felt the stingray neck to be thicker. Mind you I have never actually measured either. My experience would be dealing with instruments produced between 2006-2009. Probably no help to you here.

As much as I tried to keep my thumb centered in relation to my fretting hand it always seemed to move towards the head stock. I finally stopped worrying about this and just play. I would consider my fingers shorter than normal and have no problems with the 4 per fret stretch. Funny as I...

Sounds Logical, I only played with a SB for a few minutes 2 weeks ago, pretty solid instrument at that price point. No risk with that

Not sure if you pay PST tax from the US, I know you pay GST and 0 Duty (US made) For the record my example included freight and brokerage charges.

I'm also thinking of buying a Mesa product, I just did a quick comparison on buying here in Canada vs USA, I could pay 1752.00 CDN for a certain product or 1496.00, CDN from the US. As much as I want to support the local economy, this is just too much of a gap to cover. I do expect to pay a...

I am not sure, but I do not think there is a dummy coil on the Bongo HS, is it just not a silent circuit wired in? Sounds more enviromental as noted.

You probaly won't like this, I always store my bass in its case when not being used. Not sure about your truss rod issue, I have read that it is not suggested that you hang neck-through basses on wall hangers. No idea if that is myth or truth.

I second this statement, I have one of the new light rigs, running 2 - 8" speakers at 4 ohms (300 watts) I run the VT pedal into the return and bypass the amps preamp. I feel I get a pretty solid "vintage type tone" from such a small set up. I just got back into it years ago,if someone told me I...

I had problems actually find any CAIG products up here, but did find out that Peavey has a spray which is made by them. It is identified in the fine print as de-oxit, and worked like a charm. If anyone is interested I can grab the product or SN # for future needs.

I have the 3.0 with both 8" cabs. If your not too concerned with extreme Volume (as is) its a great play. I run a VT pedal sometimes and can't believe the tone out of this MICRO stack.

Good to hear, I was down at a shop earlier today hoping to see if they had any in, they didn't. I'd love to give them a try, I'd love to hear the 15.

Once again, thanks to all the replies and suggestions ,they are all most appreciated. The quest continues. Cheers !
