Considering buying a Reverend Fatfish from Sweetwater. Should I have it pleked? $300 for the service sounds like a fair deal as there’s a local reputable shop that offers this service for substantially more if I remember right. Is it worth it? I’ve bought instruments from Sweetwater with just...

New Sid Vicious Signature Bass Doesn’t Come With Output Jack I can not wait for this. I just hope it’s a custom shop model and not some MIM garbage.

Any Nash B6 owners? It’s a Nash’s take on a bass VI. I’m sort of surprised there isn’t an existing thread for this. Pickups by Lollar. Curious about the bridge choice. Seems like a nice middle ground between Squire variants, over priced Pawn Shop bass VI’s, and very high priced custom shop and...

Today I scored this 2002 MIM Fender Standard Pbass for $100 and 6 pack of Lucille by the Georgetown Brewing Company. “Not bad!” I’m thinking. Sounds right. Plays well. Looks decent. Not as cool and bitchin sounding as my old 76 but not shabby. The only mod is the Badass bridge. I’ve very limited...

Hello! What strings are Jerry Jones bass owners using these days? I went to put some Ernie Ball regular slinky 45-105’s on my copper burst and no go. The 105 is too thick for the diameter of the tuning machine hole. Like the genius I am, I cut the string before I discovered this. Will I be safe...

I’m on the fence between a Lakland Classic Series SS and a Serek Midwestern 2. The Lakland is very much a known quantity for me, with its Fenderish lines and PJ configuration. Serek for the most part has looked great to me. I don’t love their flat finish approach but I suspect it saves time...

This Ampeg SVT 212av has been a long time coming. Been using an Avatar b212 with this amp for a number of years. I didn’t know if the Ampeg would make a real difference so I held off on making the leap. Finally pulled the trigger and this rig now sounds complete to my ears. It’s got that SVT...

This might be a dead topic around here, but can someone please explain about ohms to me? Preferably like you’re politely explaining it to a slow child? I’ve been considering picking up a Quilter Interbass for fun, practice, recording, and as a back up. Also, because it seems like a very cool and...

If memory serves, not too far back, Fender made a short scale bass with a Telecaster body. As in a Telecaster guitar body. Am I right or did I dream this? If I’m correct, does anybody know what it was called and if it was any good? Or better yet does anyone have one? Thanks!

Hello bass nerds. For your consideration.... A flawless Jerry Jones Neptune bass. Never played, like new condition. Comes with also flawless (G&G?) case. This bass differs from earlier Jerry Jones longhorns as its neck is narrow at the nut and wide at the neck. Think short scale jazz bass. Also...

I'm thinking about picking up a moderately inexpensive/expensive(depending on your outlook) short scale bass and making it fretless. Work to be performed by a trained pro of course. The top two candidates are either a modern SG Standard bass or a Fender Rascal. Anybody have experience with this...

I recently purchased an Ampeg SVT CL used off of Craigs List. It's my first all tube bass amp. When I tested it at the sellers home, it worked fine. The next day I plugged it into my SVT 810E cab and played a G&L L2000 set to passive mode through it. It seemed like the pre-amp was distorting at...
