So ive posted here before about fixing an epi thunderbird pro up with new pickups. Ive decided i should get new pots too and i have never done this before and was recommended to get them from warmoth.com. Anyone can confirm to me that these are good or should i get something else? Next i wanted...

So I graduated college and bought this baby from TBer and it was supposed to be my grad present to myself but I cant get a job so i have to sell this to make truck notes. The bass was stripped down and repainted in the nitro blue by quadzilla. One of the pics shows a crack in the first fret...

I have doing a repost because im hoping a smaller price will help this sell. Here are the descriptions and pics: "It features a super figured black walnut top on a one piece Spanish cedar back and a fretless mahogany neck with a striped walnut fretboard. The acoustic style bridge has a piezo...

So i have a 78 fender jazz bass that has a killer tone. The only problem is that the finish on the back of the neck is i guess thick or sticky. Basically it cause my palm to stick to it and makes sliding up the neck while playing hard. This obviously slows me up quiet a bit. I was told i could...

Well the title says it all, as soon I begin to tune the g string it just starts to slip out of the tuner untile it just pops out. This is the second set i have bought and the second time it has done it, i thought it was a freak thing the first time. So anyone know why this happens only on the...

Well i have an offer to get a jerry scheff skyline in a trade. I have never played a lakland, i use vintage fenders and musicman, and i was looking up stuff on lakland.com for info on the difference between the signature and skyline. Is it like MIM fender vs MIA fender? or just not the same as...

So i walk into practice tonight and turn my amp and notice right off the back that something is wrong. There is no noise coming out of the amp at all. If you have ever owned one you know how loud the fan is. So im wondering if anyone has ever had this problem and if there is a way to fix it...

Well its very self explanatory, I am wondering if 8-10 members want to start a league. I have only played for one season so far, so someone else is welcome to set it up. But I am thinking first ten to email me can be in the league. First to offer to set it up can do it and be commish...

I have an opportunity to trade my american jazz bass for a fretless bass from this custom company. So I want to know how they sound, are they like a jazz bass or music man or what, I just want an idea if any one can help me. I have a EB sterling HS so i wont be out if the sound isnt great, but...

I am trying to play with the sound coming from my amp. I was wondering if the classic users preferred the gain knob for volume control or the master knob. I have searched the threads and read that the gain knob as the main volume control gives more of a 70's ampeg sound. Is this true or did...

I think i might be ready to dive into the 5 string bass world. The runs i usually make stay in the mids but i like to throw in a high part for those quite moments that just need a quite underlying note. So if i put this high C string on is it better to get a high B string and tune up, or does...
