I'm trying to isolate where a nasty, pitchy noise is coming from in the home studio setup I've been building. I have been going through the steps to identify the cause of this. I've found a lot of videos about 50-60 cycle hum, but nothing I've seen replicates this distinctly pitchy noise I'm...

An early representation of what has become a part of every gigging and recording bassist's gear! At #15 (photo below), this is one of Jack's earliest models- only six off from Janek's #9! I sent this over to Jack early last year to replace one of the 9v plugs and for a complete servicing, and...

I grabbed this from a consignment shop this past winter. This is a great adaptation of the classic Starfire semi-hollow basses. It is adorned with a maple top, sides, back, and neck, in a cherry stain with a poly finish. Also comes with straplocks and an OHSC. Will consider shipping CONUS...

An absolutely stunning Bobby Vega Halfling by master luthier Tom Ribbecke from 2014. I bought this about a year ago, and while I love the aesthetic of this instrument, I don't think this is right for me. The woods leveraged are Flamed Maple for the sides, back, and neck, and a great carved...

Morning friends... Hope most of y'all are enjoying a day off jamming! Question for you: If money were no object in acquiring a new Fender Precision, which of these two heavy hitters would you jump on?

Hey, Found this image on Tumblr of Ian Jennings (Strawberry Girls) pedalboard. I can easily identify the Memory Man, Whammy, M.P. Blueberry, MXR Gate, Markbass pre, Polytune, and Boss Equalizer. Two Qs coming off this: 1.) Can folks confirm that it's a Darkglass B3K photographed? 2.) Can...

Hey! Looking to sell my Zon Sonus 5'er that I've got off here a few years ago. I contacted Joe a while back to get more details on the bass, and he confirmed it's a 2000 model in Midnight Purple (GREAT sparkle in the light). This is a PRE Bartolini-era Zon with Zon branded pickups. Recently...

Looking for a full-time bassist to play with singer songwriter Gary Bender. Think Goo Goo Dolls and Butch Walker. Great person, great music. Looking for someone that can take the full-time gig including two upcoming dates at Mexicali Live (Teaneck, NJ) and a show in NYC (info coming shortly)...

Just wanted to see if there was interest in a Talkbass app for Iphone/Ipod and Android. I don't do code, but would def be something worth donating to. Thoughts?

WHO: Escape Directors WHERE: Jenks at Point Pleasant boardwalk WHEN: Wednesday, August 18th from 5-9pm WHY: 105.7 "Road To Wingstock" Battle of the Bands Just wanted to see if there would be anyone interested in coming to see my band play for a slot: opening for Dickie Betts at this years...

Just wanted to let everyone here know my bands first album drops today. We have our CD release at Mexicali Live in Teaneck tonight if anyones up in North Jersey too. Go have a listen, lemme know what you think! There are 4 songs for free download too :) myspace.com/escapedirectors...

Hey all, wanted to show you guys the sounds I'm using on my bands new album. In particular, the song Honest Man on out MySpace page. Link Removed Lemme know what you guys think. Thanks! Mags

Hey all, I have a question and I'm not entirely sure how to search it - so here goes! I'm going to be touring the east coast with my band over this summer, and I know some of these gigs will have a backline rig. My question is, I'm debating whether to bring my entire rig (Aggie AG500sc + 2...

I've been having this idea of modding a Fender Pbass with a Nordy dual coil pickup. The woodwork involved is not the setbacks for me, but I'm hesitant on deciding between a Nordy wired in series vs. one wired in parallel. What would be the sonic differences vis-a-vis a Pbass with this mod...

Invalid Link Removed What do you guys think of this? Never heard of it before, seems interesting enough. I had a Clone Theory which was nice, but I couldn't dig the noise. Link Removed

Up for grabs is my EHX XO Clone Theory. I've had it for about a year and a half now, and the majority of the time it hasn't been on my board. Its basically chilled in its box, so I figure it can go to a better home. :) No issues with the unit (its sat in its original box with the original...

Figured I could use some advice on some pedals I'm looking into for a new studio project I'll be joining in on... I'm getting into something new, a collaboration that'll have sounds similar to The Receiving End of Sirens. I have a rough idea of what sounds I was looking to put together for...

Hey all! I'm running through some hard times in terms of getting to my bands practices, and with only a few weeks until I head back to college for my senior year. The bands that are considered "influences": Circa Survive Minus the Bear Dance Gavin Dance Dredg If anyone who is local to...

I heard the demo for the new EHX Enigma, and the first song I heard in my head was Michael Jackson's '95 release Scream with sister Janet. Would anyone else agree this is a useable example of what the Enigma could sound like? I know it isn't out yet, and I'm not looking to cover this song...

I think at least a third of my posts on this site are in regards to Anthony's playing one way or another, but that won't stop me from asking more! :cool: I've been listening a good deal to Al Di Meola's album Casino lately. Are there any Jackson aficionados who can help with understanding...

Figured this would be a funny thread... I've been working with this singer songwriter for a few years now, and the product of our working together has been pretty solid. We're currently working on a new album, and the producer shot me a text to tell me to get my act together or that he'll...

I've been using a Knockout for some time, and while its great for really shaking the windows and getting a solid sub sound, I'm having trouble getting used to the amount of gain that comes with using it. Even with my passive P bass, the pedal throws my amp into clipping with the Dry set at 2...

Has anyone ever put a finish on their Warwicks neck? I gotta say that even with waxing a couple times a week, it still tends to get sticky during long practices and/or gigs :mad: I'm thinking of lightly sanding the neck and applying a think finish to keep this from happening. Does anyone...

Link Removed The first song is the pre-mastered copy of the single I did with my friend Steve. I ran two signals through a GT DI (one clean, right from bass; the other went through an LTD SR and an Ampeg Portabass 2x10 combo). I am going to give him feedback before he finishes the track, the...

Just found this clip on the 'Tube, and I'm no Gibson aficionado. Can anyone tell me what kinda he's using here? Just interested in knowing, thanks for any input. And now, the pronz:

Right now I'm running a small board for some singer songwriter projects, and I'm trying to figure out whether to put my EHX Knockout before or after my LTD SR overdrive. Does anyone have a suggestion perhaps? Thanks, Mags Edit: Just so everyone sees, the chain I'm running is: Bass >...

I recently got a vintage Precision bass off of someone on here. The bass is in wonderful condition, the only issue was the E slot on the nut was too worn down to hold a new string. I went online and I bought the TUSQ replacement nut from Graph-Tech, and I just recieved it today. My issue is...

Was looking for a good version of In a Sentimental Mood and this popped up... Any idea what he's using?

I'm interested in buying one of these cabinets, but I wanted to know if they can handle a low B string on an electric. I double on electric and acoustic for my gigs, so I was thinking of ordering an Acoustic Image Clarus SL to pair it with. If anyone has clips/pics of the Little Jack in...

I know this would probably be better addressed in the Megathread stickied, but that hasn't been posted in for a couple days. Can anyone tell me if the new WAV's coming out in the coming months will have the older-style switch for pizz/arco? Or will they be going in the same direction as newer...

Does anyone know if you can purchase suitcase-style dolly wheels that you could mount onto your amp? I have an Ampeg PortaBass 2x10 combo, but it can't handle high output well. I see Schroeder has Dolly's as an upcharge, but if anyone knows where to look for something similar I'd much appreciate...

I own an FNA Jazzman 5 string, which I love a great deal. The sound is superb, and the playability is great. My question is about the neck on it. Does anyone know if you can apply a finish to the neck? I wax it regularly, and I don't have a problem with doing so- I just wanted to hear if...

Just received my Pedaltrain PT-JR board the other week to start compiling things. I've been reading up on here quite a bit and I've come up with and idea for a studio board, and I'm wondering if I can get some suggestions about it. I currently only have my EB Volume Pedal and Demeter...

Had my Jazz combo perform this past Friday, Thought it went well for an audience of 200+ (didn't know until after show). It was my first real performance out for people, and I'd like to know what people think. I have three on my myspace, if you guys could lemme know what you think of it I'd...

I've been primarily an electric player for a couple of years. Starting this semester I started to take upright lessons to tie together my technique and ears. We've been at lessons every week, I'm up to third position in Simandl, but I'm having the hardest time getting accurately back into...

I love how they sound, complete opposite of the Warwick I have, and really tiny. I think they are a cool instrument and def have a niche market. My question is: Does anyone know songs and such where a Mustang is being used? Other than some Jamiroquai, I haven't found anything... :help: ...Mags

Just wondering whats going on with your gig tomorrow night at the Cafe in Bethlehem...I go to the music school down the road so I'll most likely be in attendance. Andrew
