    Why do they never get it right? (Epi Casady content)

    Im not a fan of the silverburst. I wish they would make a white one or a aged cherry,even just bring back the regluar sunburst.. You know the "good" gibson colors. Silverburst looks cheap. Although the silverburst is in my oppinion was not ment for me,but emo kids wanting somthing thats "not...

    Rotosounds Before and After A/B

    I agree rotos sound best when broken in. Although I think that to be true with most strings. Rotos take a bit longer to break in. I change strings about every 3 or 4 months.

    What's your fretboard conditioner of choice?

    I used Conn fingerboard oil for years. The bottle lasted like almost 10 years.I think it was intended for chello's and such.Its a little thicker than lemon oil, worked great. Now I just use plane old lemon oil. I think oiling a frettboard is more of an issue if you live somewhere dry, like I...

    How old does gutiar have to be to call it vintage?

    I see 83 fender pbasses sold on vintage and rare guitar websites all the time. I think it has more to do with demand vs supply vs age.

    jack cassady bass in silverburst

    I saw that. But why? silverburst just looks crappy. At first I thought the silverburst was cool in a David Bowie kinda of way. When I saw actual silverburst at GC it looked cheap. The Jack is a great bass so I guess getting to have the option of 3 colors is better than 2.

    Way To Go Eden

    Wow! not for rock or punk. Mike Watt(wt800 I think) would dissagree. I play a e300t in a Doom Rock outfit and it sounds effing monster. different strokes. Besides I think alot of that has to do with what people see,not as many folks know about Eden, as they do Ampeg or Gk. People go with what...

I say this because i had negative view regarding eppi products,but check them out, real good builds. The Q.C...

    How do I know what type of EMG p-bass pickup I have

    I have this 1983 American Fender P-bass with an EMG in it.I don't think its the stock pup(all the pictures of same type basses had white ones). The pup looks to be around the same age as the bass. Which Type of EMG would this be? Does EMG still make this pup?

    Ampeg V-4 through a fridge, volume?

    A few of my friends do this. One with a v4b and the other with a v4,bolth play through big 8X10's. It sounds great. These are great amps with a ton of volume, power, and a beefy overdrive sound.

    Eden was just purchased by Marshall

    I wonder if the reason there are less Eden products, is so Marshall can promote there bass amps. I see that the wtb300v is no longer in there line. Maybe Marshall will become the tube bass amp line (vba400) and eden will be the solidstate tube preamp line (wt500).

    Ray34CA vs Mark Hoppus Signature 2011

    Loved the pbass neck on the jazz body of the MH.My issue was the fliped floped pickup. Maybe it would sound better with a pick. I found my self looking for the tone knob.The bass just didn"t have the tone I like. I thought the lack of a tone knob would not be an issue as i don't use my tone...

    New Gibson Les Paul Standard Oversize bass vs Thunderbird

    Just by looking at the photo of the Les Paul,it seems to me its the same body. The difference is no top cutaway. After all the Jack is just a remake (slightly modded)of a late 1970's Les paul Signature bass. Good luck! I bet that Paul will rule! Don't worry about the size or neck dive. It's a...

    New Gibson Les Paul Standard Oversize bass vs Thunderbird

    I have the eppi cassady bass,which I believe to be the same body size.It's huge,but not in a bad way.If the t-bird egronomics is strange to you, then that big les paul might not be your jam. The large body on my Jack took some getting use to. However it never "got in the way". Hope the big paul...

    Why the Road Worn hate?

    Well put bjabass. BTW I like fender basses, and I don't doubt the bass playes great and sounds effing killer. It's just paying extra to have your bass all beat up is silly.

    Was Jaco Pastorius The Greatest Electric Bassist Of All Time?

    I know what yer sayin.Some of his stuff is like elevator musak.However not all of it.The fact that you listened to "smooth" jazz speaks to the level of player.When you listen and digest a music that is not your jam,just to hear a player. Theres got to be somthing to it. For me Jacos impact on...

    Are Elixir stings with it or not.

    True Tone strings are way better that the thick coated Elixer strings. The True Tone has a super thin coating that you don't notice, which gives it a more open tone.I believe that the Elixer coating takes away from the responce and openness I like in a string. That being said, Im still out on...

    Just got some Ernie Balls

    I find about all string brands are around 20-25 bucks,at least for rounds. Your guitar center is ripping you off.If you look online theres even cheaper better deals out there. 35.95 is an effing joke,dont pay that for any round wound string. Go out and try all kinds of strings and find what...

    Ernie Ball E string dies quickly?

    You just use the E string more.All Ernie Ball strings go dead quicker than almost any other string.GHS Boomers might be the only string that dies quicker.Ernie Ball strings are all hype and adds in guitar mags to get kids to buy them. Its funny how bad there strings are,because ther basses rule.

    Ernie Ball strings should cost about 20 bucks,which is about 15 bucks more than they're worth. Check out DR,D Addario,or Roto Sound.All these strings will last longer that the Ernie Ball.

    Can I run Mesa boogie m6 di without running cab?

    I don't think you want to do that.It's not a DI.All that power has to go somewhere.From what I gather its like having 0 impadance,your head will burn up. At least on a tube amp thats how it works.Maybe with a SS amp its different.Still its not made to be used as a DI. Don't risk it go get a DI...
