I was just thinking that with all of the threads talking about "whats the best bass for the money?" and such, what the people here on talkbass thought would be a good example of not bass for the money? This could be a bass that is just way to expensive and isn't very good at all, or one that you...

I keep finding supposedly epiphone basses on ebay that have either a precision or jazz body. Are these actualy models that epiphone produced? or did someone slap on an epi' neck? IF they were actual models, when were they produced? Did they make good basses? I'm just curious because i think...

I'm just curious because i thought they looked really cool from the picture and was wondering if those back then were better than typical squier standards today. This One...

Basically I am about to join a band as the bassist and I currently only have a fender rumble 15. I can manage about 300 dollars and would like to be heard above drums and guitar. Also, we'd be playing 70's punk/post-punk type stuff so i wont be competing with super loud metal guitars as far...

I put the word problem in quotes becasue i dont think its that bad of a thing. Just weird. Basically at this point I'm working on ear training and learning by ear and what not (getting pretty good at it too ;)). But to my point, when I sit down with my bass and try to figure it out and...

I know that there are plenty of threads about both of these basses. But I have only found "sx or VM" type threads. Never a comparison of both together. So, my question is this, which one is the better of the two? More versatile, better feel, etc. I dig the growly tone of most jazz basses...

I dunno if theres a thread about this thats been here already, bu a quick search told me no there wasnt (even though the search function doesnt like me :hmm:) But is anyone (else) excited about the new album by Green Day? I'm personally not too excited about the whole concept of...well...

Ok, so I don't have pohotoshop, and even if I did, I woldn't know how to use it.... So.... Can someone tell me what this would look like with a black pickguard? [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

Does anybody make one? I absolutely LOVE the design of them. I already have an SX junior copy but I was wondering if any company made them too.

Ok, not really beat up.... well... maybe :hiding:. Any songs make people in music stores look like wannabes, losers, etc. etc? I find that stairway, the main iron man riff, and dazed and confused, and useless shredding... but thats just me. Any others? [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

Ok, so I've been asked to join a few bands already. Not because I'm good, just because noone plays bass around here apparently :D . But I've declined most of them, maturely of course, because they have all been hardcore/metalcore bands that play the likes of August Burns Red and such. I'm...

Ok, so you have the "punk" christian bands (relient K, mxpx, etc.) But are there any that actually display some sense of true punk? Any that dont have cheesy lyrics? :hmm: Im trying to find some... ....put this in the right forum right?? :hiding:

I looked and i really didnt see a thread about this but if there is one then I'm sorry! :crying: But i need help >>> :help: I've been trying to play a lot of stuff like older metallica(mainly off of "kill 'em all") and stuff of the sort, even some faster punk, but my hand will either just...

Found this on craigslist and it caught my attention and im considering buying it. Anybody have any experience with this model? [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Also, is the humbucker at the neck standard? the few models ive seen dont have it. I dont wanna buy the amp (i have the...

I've seen these on rondomusic and i look at the prices and i wonder are they actually good basses? or are they a case of "well for the money you get a deal"? I guess this applies to the other instruments as well. How are the guitars? drums? etc.

Ok, so I'm still very new to bass (6 months), and I'm looking for a new amp. The one I have now isn't that great (can only geta bare sound on it), and also I'm getting a new bass (same reason as my amp, it sucks) soon so I figured I should have good amp to compliment it. The Problem is... I...
