    Precision Plus Pickguard

    I have a Precision Plus (boner from late 80s or early 90s.) It has a white pickguard and I'm looking to swap in a tortoise. I'm wondering if I can get a P Deluxe guard and drill an extra hole for the series / parallel button. Any thoughts. Also, if someone has one they'd sell, I'd love to buy...

    SVT 810 recover opinions

    I have an SVT810 that has been recovered with a black marshall style tolex, and it's peeling off pretty bad. I was thinking about recovering it with rough orange, leaving the black grille with white piping and recoating all of the hardware with flat wrinkle black. If anyone has done this, I'd...

    Need some 810 identity help

    I just picked up an SLM 810. The guy I got it from picked it up 7 years ago and it was pretty beat up. He reused all of the hardware and the two grilles it came with (1 black and 1 AV) and re-tolexed it. The emblems on both of the grilles are the newer metal styles, but I think they've both been...

    P Plus pup replacement

    I have Precision Plus with the PJ Lace Sensors in it. I love the bass and have had for many years, but i hate the volume and dead tone of the Lace pups. I was thinking about going with some fralins. Has anybody made this swap on this bass?

    P Plus pup replace ?

    I have a 93 P Plus with Lace PJ's. I'm a little tired of the sound the Lace's have, so I wanted to experiment with another set. I also have Schecter Hellraiser and another schecter both with EMG Hz's, which are fine, but the lace pups don't have near the volume. I was thinking about trying the...

    SVT 410HEN

    I have an SWR 550X and an Ampeg SVT 115E right now. I was thinking sbout adding an SVT 410HEN to the mix. I read some reviews about the HE cab not being so great on the low end, but I'll have an SVT 115 under it. Does anyone think this this would be an alright setup? I know where there's an HEN...

    Lo Rider Probs

    I used some Heavy Lo Riders for the first time on my Fender P Plus. I loved them at first, but after a few shows and practices, they started buzzing horribly. I have yet to find a string that I like. I think Lo Riders may have just been too heavy. I decided to try some flats. I threw on some...

    pickup opinions

    I have a Peavey Millennium 5'er. I know it's a cheapie, but I like how it plays. I wanted to experiment with some new pickups. It's J setup. I was thinking about going with some DiMarzio Ultra J's or Bassline 1/4 pounders. What are some faves?

    SWR 550X cab suggestions

    I have an SWR 550X paired up with an Ampeg SVT 15E and a Peavey BW 15" in a hommade cab, but it's not punchy enough for me. I'm probably gonna match the SVT up with an SVT 410, but I wanted some feedback of what cabs some of you guys are using with this head.

    Fender Serial number ???

    A guy I know wants to sell me a strat. He is the second owner, and he say's it's american. The "made in" is scratched off (big red flag), but the serial number is E947819. From fender's website, this could be a Japanese model from 84-87, or a USA from 89-90. Does anyone know how I can figure out...

    DR Lo Riders get my vote!

    I've never been really pleased with any strings I've tried. I used Dean Markley Electra's back in the day, but they stopped making them. I used Blue steels for a while, and they were ok, but I kept snapping the E. I used the hybrid Ernie's for a stretch, but wasn't super happy with them, but...

    Rig probs

    I have a GK Backline 600 pushing an SVT 15E and a homemade cab with a 15" Peavey Black Widow. I also have a behringer rackmount comp. with the -10db button on, there isn't much power. Also, this is the first compressor I've toyed with, but when the compressor is on, I get a shytty sound. I ran...
