    FT: MXR M-80 for SansAmp Bass Drive or Avalon U5 + Cash

    Hi there! I have a MXR M-80 in great condition (missing the battery cover but it's covered with velcro for a pedal board) that I'm looking to trade for a SansAmp BDDI. I love the M-80 but I would also love to try a new flavor and I've heard the SansAmp is pretty great as well. I'm located in...

    SGD Pickup and Line 6 X2 XDS Wireless

    Hi guys, I am parting ways with my SGD pickup. The SGD was used for one session and then taken out and stored. It is the Wide 4-String EMG style pickup. If you don't know anything about these pickups, they are supposed to sound as close to the old Lane Poor pickups as you can get. It is also...

    Santa Barbara Bowl Blew My Mind

    Hey JMJ, just want to say that you absolutely blew my mind and my friend's minds at the bowl on Thursday night. The entire set was amazing but all of our mouths were collectively dropped during Paper Tiger due to your incredible playing. Thank you for the beautiful show.

    Gallien Krueger just blew, need some advice.

    Hey guys, I've been using the same Gallien Krueger 115sbx II and 410sbx for the last six years. I've been planning to upgrade anyways but now I'm kind of being forced to. On the 115, the speaker coil came unwound. My precision runs through my MXR M80 into my Backline 600. The send channel on my...

    Replacement Pickups for EMG Soapbar

    I have a Schecter Diamond series custom 4 with two soap bar pickups. I really do not like the sound of the EMGs. I'm looking to replace the one closer to the neck with something that will get me closer to sounding like a precision or the sound that Flea has on the album Californication...

    Every Amp Has Too Much Overdrive At Loud Volume

    I've been having a lot of trouble with my tone. I want to play loud but I want a clean tone. I have a Gallien Kruger Backline 300 and an SVT-2 (Non-Pro). I have a 410SBX and 115SBX. Everything is working correctly. My problem is that at the volume that I need to play at (very loud), I've been...

    Duncan Design vs Stock MIM

    I recently got some Duncan Design Precision pickups from a VM (from someone here!). I'm debating putting them in my primary bass or using them in a project that I'm going to work on. At some point (in a long time when I have money), I'm going to buy the Fralins. But in the mean time, I want to...

    How low can I make my frets?

    I've got a MIM Fender Jazz bass that I brought to a guitar tech. The frets were completely uneven. He did a decent job of evening out the frets but there are still a few that are too high that cause fret buzz and the strings to stop dead. I've been doing a lot of research and I'm going to try...

    Ampeg SVT-2 (Non-Pro) Sounds Too Muddy

    Hey guys, I recently bought an older SVT-2. I brought it to my tech and picked it up today. He biased it and installed 6 new JJ KT88s and replaced a few of the preamp tubes. I brought it home and played it before and during band practice through my Gallien Krueger 410SBX and 115SBX with a stock...

    Potential Project: Schecter Neck on Precision MIM

    Hey guys, I am new building instruments and making large modifications, but I would love to learn more about it and try it in the future. It is truly a beautiful art form. When I was in middle school, I built a body but I moved before I could wire any electronics and attach a neck. I've been...

    Anybody that can help with ODB-3 Problem

    I recently bought an ODB-3 off of Ebay. When I plugged it in, I may have used a plug with too many volts. I tried using different 9 volts and nothing seemed to power the pedal. I opened up the pedal and noticed that the capacitor in C40 (100uf 10v 105C) was completely destroyed. I bought...
