Hey folks. I am hoping that some of the Fender specialists can read and respond to this. I have 2 basses that are available for me to purchase this week, and I am stumped. They are a '97 Fender American Standard Jazz Bass and a '04 Fender American Jazz Bass. I tried looking up the info through...

Hey folks. I was hoping someone could help with this. I have a Zeta Crossover EUB that I purchased in 2004. I am trying to locate the serial number but do not seem to be having any luck. There is nothing on the back of the head stock nor in the electronics casing. Anyone know where Zeta kept the...

I just picked up this beauty at Kebos Bass Works (Kebos Bass Works) in NJ! Kevin was awesome with contacting me immediately and accepting another bass as part of a trade-in. This is a '08 Fender American Standard Precision. Very pleased with it. I will be gigging with it tomorrow night.

Hey TBers. I have been asked recently about trying to "round out" my tone when on stage. They would like a warmer, fuller tone going through, like a classic Motown feel P bass sound. I currently use an '89 G&L SB-1 (which is technically a P bass) with a Markbass Little Mark III head and the...

Hey folks. I am wondering if anyone is familiar with the Markbass 102 P Traveler cabinet. I started hearing a buzz from the speakers when playing in the lower register yesterday. I play through a Little Mark III head and can assure you I never go past 12:00 on either the gain or volume. I am...

Hey folks. I have been using a Zeta Crossover for the last 7 years and love the sound! I had purchased a low grade bow a few years ago to use on the Zeta but could never really get it to work properly. It is because of the bow itself? The strings? (I have the same strings on it from when it was...

Hey folks. I didn't see any threads comparing these 2 models together. I'm planning on buying a MBIII with a 102 and a 151 or 121. I know that the tones on these cabs are amazing and they are both lightweight. Now the question is, what's the difference, if any, between the Club and Traveler...

Hey folks. Does anyone have any advice on starting a website to promote yourself as a bassist for hire? I know Blogspot.com offers a free domain name. Is anyone familiar with any others? Are there any that are better with uploading videos, music, and pics? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know of any available bass instructors in New Jersey?

I just started getting into these guys and love the crunch that Jack is getting in his tone. Anyone know what effects he's using during the live shows? [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

Hey folks. Sorry if this has been talked about before. I tried a search and only came up with specs for Jeff Berlin's solo version. Anyone know what the setting & effect was used on the fretless bass? Also, was this Nathan East on the recording? The other posts never clarified.

Today I just ordered a G&L Tribute L2000. My job has discount sites to go through for various forms of electronics, household needs, vacations, insurance, etc. One of the sites is AmericanMusical.com. I'd figure I'd take a look as I just sold a '93 G&L ASAT Classis to buy a new bass (that was...

Hey folks. Not sure if there was a thread started on this anywhere yet. I have a friend who is a carpenter by trade and a bass player for fun. He recently had a tragic accident where the tips of his middle finger, and the first knuckle of his ring and pinky fingers were cut off. He's...

I watched the trailer for the new Steven Soderbergh film. Throughout the entire trailer there is a drum solo break beat that is pretty cool. At the very end of the trailer you see a guy behind a full kit set up on a street corner. He was wearing finger covering which made me think he was...

I'm in the Northern NJ area, about an hour outside NYC. Aside from Craig's List, are there any musician's classifieds, agencies, secret handshake organizations that anyone goes through in finding paying gigs? I keep hearing about players getting set up with corporate gigs. Where are they...

I was just asked to record with a very well known hip-hop artist. Without dropping names here, he was a HUGE influence in the rock/rap crossover. I laid rough tracks down on Saturday & am returning to the studio this evening to record the actual song. This is my first real time in the studio...

I live in Sussex County. Any bass instructors in the area?

I'm looking to restring my '89 G&L sb-1 & playing through a Hartke 2155 Combo. I'm using a set right now that seems way too tinny than what I like. I play with my fingers. Mostly worship and rock. I usually use a low gauge D'Addario, but I've been itching for something that gives more of a...
