    Effects stopped working with my amp!

    I have a GK-RB700. I've been getting more into pedals and have been using them with fantastic results. A couple days ago I go to practice at a studio my guitar player rented. I wanted to bring a fuzz but forgot it so he gave me a boss mega distor. I plug it in with a 9V boss adapter I switch...

    C standard with flats tuned down or up? (Chromes?)

    So I'm going to be tuning to C standard on a 4 soon and wanted to stick with flats but wasn't sure if I should use a 5 set and lose the G or use a 4 and tune down? I'm probably going with medium chromes as I don't want to spend much more than that. I've never experienced the 5 chromes, can...

    Any big difference between Delano and SGD?

    Looking at Twin-J and P. Can't find many Youtube clips. Both are highly praised on TB. Anyone done an a/b and detect much of a difference in voice? Price seems to be the biggest difference at this point.

    Just crowning?

    I've been checking out my bass in detail today. The neck and action are really good but still there's fret buzz. I laid out my bass, took the strings off, adjusted the truss, and checked the levels of the frets. Everything seems very even. I have noticed though that my frets seem to be quite...

    Can you help me determine these effects?

    I had an idea during songwriting yesterday but realized I needed more seasoned ears to translate it. I don't know why this effect popped into my head but I think it would be perfect for this song I'm working on. Third Eye If you skip ahead to 12:20 I'd like to use the big shrieking swell that...

    Why hasn't this been invented yet?

    Or has it already and I just don't know about it? An adapter for on-board preamps so we don't have to worry about 9Vs crapping out on us at the worst time? Maybe because bass players don't want two cables coming out of their bass because it's unsightly or because preamp circuits in pedal...

    Replace Fender nut with a JAN III

    Has anyone ever attempted to do this? I'm getting more buzzing than I'd like on my bass. The truss rod is in the right place the neck doesn't need any shimming. I adjusted the saddles but they're getting too high. Some of you may remember I had problems with a twisting neck but that's...

    Do neck plates have a purpose?

    Do they have any real measurable function? Do they keep the screws from loosening or keep the neck together better? Do they add sustain??? Is tone really all in the neck plate????? I wanna hear from YOU!!!

    Does perfect intonation really matter?

    I'm asking because I don't play up at the the 12th fret on the E or A strings even the 9th is a rarity for me. I usually just travel up to the D and G if I need those notes. So is perfect intonation really necessary if everything I'm playing is in tune?

    Dealing with different levels of relief?

    Hello again... I've got a geddy neck that appears to have two different levels of relief at the same time. When I look down the E its a bit too straight for my taste but the G side is already way too bowed for my liking. What do you guys do in a situation like this? Is there a general...

    Tuners: same size different style?
