Has anyone played the new 44-AJ or 55-AJ? What are they like?! They look awesome! Invalid Link Removed Cheers!

Love the tone of it but not familiar with the logo on the headstock. I saw Roland on it but didn't know they made basses!!! So much punch and growl! Its Nate Watts pre A-C/Hartke days!!:hyper:

I was wondering about option available on Lakland 55 series. The website only shows MM/J or Chi-sonics are available. I have just seen this video on you tube: Is this an option available to anyone? Is it a prototype? I have also seen JJ setups on the 55 series on ebay. Is the website...

Does anyone use this set up? I was going to but now I look at the specs the head is going to put out more (350W @ 8ohms) than the cab can handle (300W @ 8ohms). Any experiences/opinions??:hmm:

Does anyone know of any online store that will sell me an EMG BTC control and ship it Down Under?!!! So dear over here. RRP$199 over here and considering the Australian dollar is US$0.93 I cant go wrong!!! Cheers!;)

To put it out there, I am a huge GK fan. Will take me a lot to change!!! I am looking at replacing my Eden with a GK Neo setup. I have played through both a 410 Neo and a 212 Neo, together and seperately, and absolutely loved it!!!! Just wondering if anyone out there uses that same setup...

Hi all! I am wondering the main difference between the 5502 and 5594. I know the 02's are made in Korea and the 94's have bird's eye maple fret boards. Apart from that, is worth spending the extra cash for a 55-94? Is there a tonal difference? Tighter, punchier B string? Whats would be the...

When I play notes from the 8th fret and above on my low B string, I get horrible overtones, like there are 2 notes a semi-tone apart, being played at the same time. Obviously only playing one note and all other strings are muted to stop any harmonics. What is the reason for this? Its so...

I am a bass player and I want to find a great preamp to use for recording purposes only at home. I have an M-Audio 1814 Firewire interface into a PC using Cubase. Some ideas I have are the new SWR Marcus Miller M2, Eden WP100, Fender TBP1, BBE BMAX or BMAX-t. I dont need any effects. Just...

I just put DR low beams on my Lakland 5501 and my god! Changed the feel and sound of my bass. I love it! I will always use hex-core strings on my basses now, and I think they'll always be DR's! Great tension, especially on the killer B!!! Anyone else felt this way bout strings before...

I had a gig on a medium to larger stage. The backline was supplied and was playing through an Ampeg SVT-III (older version) with 2 x 410 Pro cabs. All night the rig was breaking up peaking out, and all the settings were set fine. The amp's peak LED only came on when I really dug in. In my...

I have a Lakland 5501 with Nordy Fat Stacks in it. Absolutely love it but the B isnt as tight and punchy as I'd like. Its really fluffy compared to the rest. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? I use 45-135 gauge strings. Cheers!

I have a Lakland 5501 and have Nordy Fat Stacks and an Aggy OBP3 in it. I just finished recording an EP with my band and the bass sounds unbelievable. The exact sound I am after. Smooth, fat, growly and punchy. How can I get the same sound out of my 07 MIA Jazz, as fat stacks don't fit...

Hi all! I have a 400RB/210 combo and have used it flat (not volume) out for years and the speakers are getting pretty tired. Any ideas for replacement? GK 10" Neo's maybe? I am open to any suggestions.

Not that I care about the weight, but can you change a power amp in a bass head to a digital one? Or isn't it that easy? Price? Supplier of digital amps Just wondering. Cheers!

I have a 5501 with Warwick Black Label strings on it but find the tension on the B string isn't as tight as I would like it. Has it got to do with the gauge or brand, or something else. I think he Warwick stings are 45 - 135. Should change them to 130 on the B string.:hmm:

What is a gig car big enough for an upright to fit in but is really cheap to run? Any ideas? I'm an Aussie so some cars/models might not be available here eg, Chev. Was thinking a car like a Ford Modeo diesel wagon or Mazda 6 wagon.:hmm: Cheers!

Found this bass on Fender's website under the color chart (shoreline gold). What model is this? Anyone seen it before? Looks tuff!!!:hmm:

Whats a good pre to suit NJ4's in a 2007 MIA Jazz. Was thinking bout an Aggy OBP1(Volume/Volume Stack + Treble + Bass EQ Pots), but any other opinions?

Before I buy them, I just want to confirm that NJ4's are compatible in Jazz Basses with the S1 option, and are NJ4's easy to wire in? Cheers!

I have a 5501 thats is only 12 months old and my techy (extremely experienced) says I need a fret dress. I looked at the frets and the fret board and found that the B string touches the fretboard on the 4th fret, leaving the marks in it (I use round wound strings). Has anyone had this problem? I...

I am looking for opinions on the best fretless I can get for around AU$1250 (US$1100 ish!). I am after something that has the growl and warmth of a Warwick Streamer Stage 1 - 5 (friend is endorsed by them and has a custom built Stage 1 - 5 fretless. LOVE IT!!!). Obviously the Warwick would be...

I have a Lakland 5501 and was wondering if you can replace these frets with jumbos or medium jumbos. I had a Music Man Sterling and got used to the frets on that which i think (correct me if I am wrong) are jumbos. I don't know much in this area so it might be a silly idea!!! Cheers!

Hi All! I have not long had a new MIA Jazz (passive) and love it. The only problem is I play quite hard with my right hand and when i really dig in I get a distorted signal. Its a shocker when I go to do solos. Any ways I can stop it? I am also thinking of changing the pups to Nordy NJ4's or...

As i mentioned in my last post (Recommend me some strings) I am new to URB. The results from that post lead towards buying some Spirocores. Just need to know how I work out which length and is a medium gauge the best (i have strong fingers!). I was looking at the Thomastik website and it had...

Hi All! I am new to URB after playing electric bass for 12 years. The upright I just bought has factory strings on it which are pretty average. Jazz is my main style I will use it for but also want to do some blues etc. Which strings would you recommend? The guy where I bought it said...

Have a Lakland 5501 with an Aguilar OBP3 preamp waiting to go in. Want to change the pups and install everything at once. Have always like the Warwick Stage 1 5 string (MEC Soapbar) tone but the Fat Stacks seem to be more popular. Which do I go for? Want a fat, punchy, growly, round, warm sound...

Hi all! I have fat stacks in my bass and want to put a hc/sc switch in. Does anyone have a wiring diagram and is it easy to do, or do i leave it for the techs? Oh yeh, i have an Aguilar OP3 pre. Cheers!

Just wondering if anyone can confirm if the front pup has a red (hot) and black (earth) and the back pup has a green (hot) and black (earth), in a Lakland 55-01. Cheers!

Hi All! Do Fat Stacks come set up for coil tapping (single coil/hum-canceling) or does a tech do it on installation? I mean is it easy enough to put the switch etc in myself or do I leave it for the techs? If so, does any one have a link to a wiring diagram for coil tapping 2 fat stacks and...

I know the Eden has a valve preamp but which do you think best suits funk/rock/soul? Completely different amps i know. I have a GK1001RB and love the sound but have an Eden 410XST cab and don't know whether to change to the Eden head. Opinions?

Hi! I have a Lakland 55-01 and just put a Aguilar OBP3 preamp in it. Want to change the pick ups and have narrowed it down to Nordstrand Fat Stacks or Big Singles. Any opinions of which to go with? I play mainly jazz, funk and rock styles. Cheers!
