Currently own a NG2 5 string with 2 pickups and thinking of adding the 3rd in, but not sure if I have to drill any extra holes. Seen some videos on youtube where they had like 2 to 3 extra dip switches on their body and I absolutely don't want that. So anyone own 3 pickup configuration on the...

Been after this bass for a while, its such an amazing instrument to play. I've mainly played my warwick thumb 5 Broadneck and this Dingwall blows it out of the water, still going a keep both of them though. ordered some Payson strings with a .145 low B, I can't wait!

Just acquired an Avalon u5 and was wondering how I could split the signal so that I have I could a clean bottom end via the U5 and a distorted top end via Darkglass B7k. I have figured 1 way to do it and that was guitar > tuner pedal > b7k, parallel out > compressor pedal > U5. Mic xlr of u5 to...

Im having some issues with 4001 bass, the mono input jack has no sound when I plug it into an amp it will just hum like crazy, plugging into a tuner just gives me random notes too. Stereo jack seems to work fine. I checked the wiring too, everything seems okay. Is there a diagram somewhere I...

B7K is in like-new/mint condition, its just been sitting on my amp the whole time. hasn't been gigged at all, comes with original box, booklets and sticker. Also throwing in a Truetone power adapter which works great at getting rid of any hum when the pedal is on. Asking $270 USD Thanks!

Official site only shows 1 store that sells them, but it's way downtown in Toronto. I'm here on holidays in mississauga so if anyone can help me out that would be awesome.

Hey guys was wondering if any of you Ric owners had any experience with this? How do they hold up compared to the actual Rickenbacker Bridges/tailpieces? Tail Lift if at all any? http://www.allparts.com/Rickenbacker-Bridge-Tailpiece-p/bb-0316-010.html Official Rickenbacker pieces are...

Hey guys, come check out my bass cover! Let me know what you think! Thanks! Enjoy!

So I've been window shopping on the net for a really good 6. I play progressive rock/metal, I blame John Myung for making me want to buy this brand after I saw him live.:D Most likely some of you own it and was wondering: How does it play? Would the Bongo 6 give me a variety of tone? Do you...

Just reinstalled truss rods which got re-threaded and the neck on my 4001 still wants bow out(high action). So i pulled the rods back out to see what was wrong and I noticed they get bent being inserted and being pulled out. That's the conclusion I've come to. So Ric experts or Ric players...

After doing some neck adjustments on my Ric(went through Joeys bass notes, ricki resource and ric forums) I still have this relief that starts from the 5th fret to the string nut. Anyway to get rid of this? I'd really like to get this neck a little more flat then what it's at now... Using...

So I'm selling my Rbi for an RPM soon, and I needed to know exactly what the mid shift knob does. I have an idea of what it does in my head, but if someone could clarify it for me that would be great. What changes when you turn the knob from 170Hz to 3000Hz? Thanks!

So is it worth the buy, from all the reviews I've read, it's supposed to sound like a beast and built like a tank? It's going to be a long term investment, and I currently have a 410HE which I'm really digging. Will this cab break my spine in 10 different places if I try to haul it up and down...

This seems like the appropriate forum to post this. :) I'm surprised Myung has a lot of drive in A Rite of Passage. Enjoy! Invalid Link Removed Invalid Link Removed Invalid Link Removed Ps. Make sure you extract every rar file from 1 - 3 not just pt 1.

So my friend who's also my guitarist that I've known my most of my life sent me an email today saying something along the lines of "Stop coming over, you're wasting my time hanging out doing nothing when I can be practicing, do the same for yourself and stop wasting both our time". We just got...

Im using minwax polyurethane spray to refinish my Geddy Lee neck, so far so good on the headstock, but the neck is very sticky and ive put at least 3 coats on and sanded it lightly for coat 2. So whats my problem here? Do i need more coatings on the neck so it will smooth out? And do I need...

Well im currently bandless and the friends I played with only jammed to stuff. I live in a town about 2000 people and there absolutely no other bands in my small town. I get asked to fill in bass for events in town, but that's the most I got close as to a gig lol. What should I do TBers...

So Dream Theater is stopping by my capital city in August, and I'm definitely going. For those who have seen Dream Theater in concert, what's it like?(Only have the Score DVD of DT) Is it somewhat like a Rush concert? I'm pretty excited to see each of the members of DT tbh. :D:hyper:

Continuation of the 12 step Mike writes about, I'm digging this tune can't wait for the new album.

So I'm planning on getting two Sansamp RPM's, currently have the Sansamp RBi that I'm going to trade in for an RPM, so I was just wondering if having two RPMs plugged into one cabinet can give me the privilege to control my top and bottom end or do I have to get another cabinet...

My friend just gave me his bass today to see what was wrong with it, turns out that a wire hasn't been soldered, but I don't know where this wire should be soldered to. The wire is coming from the where the battery is stored. Yamaha's site doesn't have this bass listed anywhere for some reason...

Anyone got audio samples of this modification? I've searched everywhere, but only found written reviews, I want to hear it to see if it's worth the upgrade. Thanks!

Anyone know where I can listen to isolated or even download samples of some Rush samplers, like the synth at the end of limelight, tom sawyer etc. I've tried Link Removed, but not a whole lot there. Thanks!

Just got it today and whenever I try to turn the dials, it will give out this crackling sound through my cab, its pretty sensitive, even just laying my finger on the eq knobs will cause it to crackle. Anyone got a fix for this? Its the older 400rb model with 4 EQ knobs, 3 cut/boost buttons...

Hey there, I just bought a GK 400RB series 1(1980s version I believe)off of EBay a few days ago, I've seen people say these brand of amp heads give you a totally a different sound. Just wondering if some of you can more in-depth info. I also heard the newer models tend to "burn up" more, any...

Well here's my situation, in a 3 piece band for now(just started up again), no singer yet. My guitarist is totally against cover songs, because every band does it:rollno:... and thinks making up songs are better. Me being a bassist and all I don't mind making up our own songs, but with no...

Okay, I may sound like a complete idiot for asking this, but being a bassist and all, I see bands with a their bassist being stage left and few being on stage right, what's the difference really? I had my friends' mother tell me a bassist should always go on the the left side of the stage in a...
