    Identifying P-bass pick ups

    Is there any way to identify different P-bass pickups? I pulled what I thought were stock Fender MIM pickups out of a 2006 MIM p bass, but then I noticed the pots were CTS. I didn't think they used CTS pots in MIM products. The 2006 fender MIM models were rumored for a while to have...

    Grounding to pots or to a screw?

    Hi Everyone, I'm about to attempt my first rewire on my MIM P and I noticed a few people like to solder grounds to the back of the volume pot while others solder grounds to a screw they add during refurbishment. Once I saw the screw technique, I'm leaning towards that. Any experts want...

    The wrong Deep Talkin stings...

    So, I picked up a set of Labella Deep Talkin' flats from my local store, got them home and discovered I let them sell me the 760FHBB set for the Hofner "Beatle Bass." Serves me right for not telling them exactly what I wanted and for not thoroughly examining what they gave me. I saw the 760F...

    BDDI meltdown?

    I was in my local gear shop the other day looking at a renter BDDI at a great price. The sales dude chatted with me about it for a bit, then told me I should look at the tonebone or a straight D/I box instead of the bddi. In doing this, he said the the circuitry of the bddi is covered by...

    Can my solid state amp kill me when it's not plugged in?

    So, I'm getting some crackling from either my amp or my bass. Just brought in some new cordage and nothing has improved. Ampeg B5r and MIM P I was thinking about opening both up and getting the lay of the land, see if anything needs some general tightening or there is anything readily...

    Oh God, not another Markbass comparison post...

    ...but I'm completely torn. The time is near for a new amp purchase and the LMII and SA 450 are on the list. The Shuttle 6.0 was on the list, But it's much more expensive (>$1,000) and seems more difficult to find around these parts, a situation I found odd. I have A/B'd the two...

    acoustic 220

    [I posted this in the Acoustic club as well but it didn't seem to update on the main page, so I posted it here too. If that's a no-no, scold away.] Bit of a derailment here, but I need some Acoustic expert opinion. There's an Acoustic 220 at a local used shop that I've been looking at. I...

    Buy a used US Fender or hold out for a 2008?

    Before you kill me by flame, I did a ton of reading on here and found a number of great posts, just not this identical question: Should I buy a used '06 or earlier fender now or just hold out for a 2008 model year? Are the 2008's that much better? thanks

    Can anyone identify these speakers?

    Hi Folks, I'm looking to buy yet another eden d210T (they are coming out of the woodwork over here!) and the dude selling it is not the original owner. He claims to have bought it from the original owner, who replaced the drivers "because the old speakers weren’t as good as the new...

    Eden D210T, any thoughts or experiences?

    I'm fixing to buy an eden D210T and was looking for experiences from users on its performance and value for the money. When I saw the CL ad I was super stoked because I thought it was an xlt, but on further examination i'm fairly sure its the 210T. At least the "T" model will give me a few...

    Turning a combo into a Cab, requires surgery.

    I have an old yorkville 15-inch bass combo without the amp portion. I would like to remove the 1/4-in. cable that provided the line out from the head to the speaker and replace it with an input jack. The cable is connected to the speaker and plugged into the head. It has no slack for me...

    Can you use a preamp and a head?

    I know the head does the same job as a pre/power amp. But I was wondering if a preamp before my head would make for nice tone, if the preamp was nice (BBE max-T, potentially)? Is this ever done? I just don't know. thanks

    Rig set-up question not answered through searching...

    ...at least not answered through the several cursory searches I conducted. I did get some great research on rack effects and brand choices, though. First off, I'm a noob and this is my first post after lurking here for about two weeks. Second, my rig knowledge is...unsophisticated...so I...
