What is the correct fingerboard radius of a 1975 Gibson Ripper? I'm pretty sure it's not the same as the Ripper II.

Hello, I have a Stingray that has been through rough times, but is a phenomenal player! Black ash body with maple neck. I believe it was made in '03. I took it in as a beater, cleaned it up, and enjoyed practicing on it. My hands and my ears are married to my Fender MIM V, so I'm gonna...

Selling a used SMB4D pickup. I don't have any mounting screws. $55.00 shipped.

I'm missing a knob from my EBMM StingRay. Where can I get an exact replacement?

Passing on the good mojo to other TB'ers. :) Totally free. I'll cover shipping. I have a gold control plate that only aligns with 2 holes on my EBMM StingRay, so I assume it is for an OLP bass or the like. It will come with a gold nut and washer for the input jack. Everything is gold...

Hello, I got a EBMM StingRay in rough condition and wired it with a series/bridge coil/parallel switch since it already had an extra hole in the control plate. I used a Seymour Duncan Basslines pickup. The parallel and bridge coil positions sound fine, but when I switch to the series...

I have a Wilkinson TW4 bridge (aluminum base plate + brass saddles) and I fabricated a gorgeous shiny 1/4" solid aluminum shim. Unfortunately, the saddles lift up every time I strum the strings and they clack back down. Has anyone else experienced this with this bridge? Any remedies? They...

Hello. Disclaimer: The only experience I have with a switch is wiring a series/parallel switch on my jazz bass. While I'm waiting to get my stock StingRay pickup fixed, I'd like to install a Seymour Duncan Basslines SMB-4D pickup in my 3-band EQ StingRay. The control plate has an on/off/on...

For sale in Sacramento, CA. I don't have a box to ship it in, so local pick-up, please. Bought used in great condition and always kept indoors with low use as a practice amp. The pots used to be scratchy, but I sprayed the pots with DeoxIT F5. They are now clean and smooth. Comes with...

Passing on the good mojo to other TB'ers. :) Totally free. I'll cover shipping. I have a gold control plate that only aligns with 2 holes on my EBMM StingRay, so I assume it is for an OLP bass or the like. It will come with a gold nut and washer for the input jack; awesome if you have VVT...

Yep. Just bought an inline set from TB and set them up as 2x2. I don't get why people say that ya can't do it. See pictures of the process here! Edit: I've been tinkering with a few types of tuners and have adjusted them properly to where they don't feel "cheap". I've adjusted Schaller...

I have a chance to get a G II for super cheap. Has anyone ever paired a Goliath Jr. II 2x10 with a Goliath II 4x10? The Goliath Jr. II is 4 ohms 250 watts. If the Goliath II is 8 ohms 500 watts, would it be worth it to rewire the Jr. II to 16 ohms and pair them to get an even 6x10 or leave the...

More specifically, I'm looking at the black pearl pickguards that Warmoth offers. Are the sample pics in the website accurate to the real thing? I love the look of how dark it is in the pics, but I've seen "black pearl" pickguards on instruments that have a grey hue.

What we have here is a fine propane bass guitar accessory. I bought these here strings used from a TB member and I used them for 2 minutes. It's cut for a 34" 5 string with 4x1 tuners (also fits 3x2) and I used strings E-G on a 2x2 good ol' Gibson USA headstock with no problems, I tell...

I got a StingRay 4 with a professionally routed neck pickup hole without the switch. What can you possibly do with an extra pickup without 5-way switching? Add an aftermarket pickup? I'm thinking about just covering the hole up with a new pickguard. Thoughts?

I have two sets of 4 in-line Gotoh GB7 tuners. The chrome set came off of a Fender Standard Jazz V. I could sell it as a 4 or 5 tuner set. One black set left! The black set says "Made in Japan" on the back casing instead of "Gotoh", but it still has the same markings as the chrome set on...

D'Addario EXL165 .045 .065 .085 .105 Totally new in packaging. Paypal, $13.00 shipped.

Just wondering if this preamp circuit board is stock or aftermarket.

I have a pending deal for a chrome-faced SWR 350 with one or two SWR Goliath Jr. II cabinets. From what I have researched, the SWR cabinets are 4ohms. I have an 8ohm Ampeg SVT 15EN. Amp Specs: 450 Watts @ 2 ohms 350 Watts @ 4 ohms 240 Watts @ 8 ohms What cabinet combination would...

I have a new old headstock waiting to have Schaller Licensed tuners installed from a Fender MIM neck. I put in all the effort to fill the previous horrible, horrible, horrible tuner holes, cover it with a veneer, and paint it. Long story short, I need to replace them ASAP after I install...

I'm trying to decide which pickguard to get from Warmoth. I have a hunch that the actual pickguard color is lighter than the stock photo. I would greatly appreciate it if you guys posted pictures of your Warmoth pickguards. :help:

I'd like to have an oil dye finish on a swamp ash body, just like the Warwick Corvettes. How do I do it?

I have a Gibson Ripper with a disastrous headstock. There are several mangled holes and weird dowels where the machine tuner screws go. I acquired the bass with cheap, damaged tuners on it (with the screws carelessly jammed in :mad:), so I would like some suggestions of better replacements...

I just bought a '74 Gibson Ripper that has been refinished and heavily modified. The control cavity seems to have the original finish. What was the original finish? The pots/controls have been replaced to V/V/T. Does anyone have the original schematics? The string-through...

I want to drill a hole for a mini 3-way switch on a jazz bass control plate. Like the Reggie Hamilton control plate, but not costing $20. :o How should I prepare it and what do I do?

I have a Silvertone Revolver P-bass. It was taken to a luthier for a full setup a few years ago and I haven't played anything as comfortable. The neck is less glossy and much smoother than my Fender MIM V and Squier Jazz basses. Real dull looking. What do you think?

Earlier when I was checking out the pots and caps on my bass, I noticed that the pickup covers on my Fender MIM Standard Jazz V are different. The cover on the neck pup cover is all smooth while the top of the bridge pup cover is textured. Do they come like that stock or could they be...
