Hi I've noticed that I'm not getting any more push notifications from talkbass. I've also noticed that the "Notification" section inside the app is always empty even though some of my subscribed threads are active. Is this just me? I've tried removing and install it again.

Hi I've got a Tech21NYC Sansamp BDDI (the 3 channel programmable one). I really enjoy the presence knob the most and a few of the SVT settings. However I seem to just use 1 channel, it's either on or off. I'm not switching between different modes. With this in mind, I have the opportunity...

Hi NBD! I ordered this bass a few months ago (yes, months). It's finally here. Turns out that G&L isn't popular in South Africa. It's a nice addition to my P, J and Ray that I have (all 4 black!). This s my first time playing a G&L. I really love all the options that are available. Link...

Hi It may seem like a strange question, but can anyone recommend me a GOOD gig bag.

Hi I've discovered that I need to spend way more time on ear training. Particularly on finding out what chord/note is being played in songs. Does anyone have an app that can generate a random note/chord, then I play along till I find it? Thanks!

I'm not sure if this is the right section for this. But last night I met Robert Trujillo. He is currently in Cape Town for a few gigs and I saw him at a club last night. As he was leaving I went up to him and asked about The Bass of Doom. He told me the whole story even though security was...

Hi I'm asking this because I swear I saw someone say it here, I just can't fine it anywhere. I have 1 amp and 2 cabs. The head outputs a single speakon. Each cab takes a speakon and a jack. If I daisy chain them, does order matter? Amp <S----S> Cab <J-----S> Cab vs Amp...

Hi I think this is a little bit of a tough question, but does anyone know the differences between a Hartke 410XL and a GK 410MBE? A friend has the hartke and would like to buy the GK (due to the weight). Looking at the manuals for each, I got this: GK 410MBE: - Weight: 50 lbs. -...

Hi Just a hypothetical question, lets say I have 2 amps (Lets use the GK MB200 as an example, because I own one of those) and I want to power 2 cabs, one amp to each cab. How would I go about splitting the signal into the two amps? Looking at the back of my amp, I have: Direct out (XLR)...

Hi I've recently gotten rid of my entire Ashdown rig (1x15 combo + 4x10 cab) and replaced it with GK. I bought the MB200 last month and the 210MBE this month. Its pretty small and suits my needs far better then the heavy Ashdown rig I had. I'm quite enjoying the cleaner tone I get from it...

Hi I sold my Ashdown Electric Blue 180 15" combo and bought a GK MB200 head (seems as though everyone is getting one of them) to power my Ashdown 4x10. It sounds great! Makes my 4x10 sound more alive! Link Removed I'm considering selling the Ashdown 4x10 and buying a GK MBE210. Any...

Hi A friend of mine and I went to go look at a 4001 Rickenbacker 1974 that he found on gumtree (our local version of eBay). This thing looks like the real deal and is going for R9000 (+- USD 1125). Is this a good deal? What should we look out for to make sure its the real deal?

Hi One of my favorite bands (partially because they are originally south african) have a new single out. It sounds like the bassist has some sort of distortion on his bass. Can anybody guess what it is? I quite like the sound: Invalid Link Removed (its the song that plays on the front page)

Hi I got this bass a month back when I was in the USA. Flew it back to South Africa with me and loving it! I've always dreamt of owning a ray and now I finally have one! Here she is: Link Removed With her 2 sisters: Link Removed

Hi I have a Fender USA Std P and Fender USA Std Jazz. My question is, if I wanted to replace the pickups with the exact same parts, what would the fender part number be? Just curious, I've looked on fender and other sites, but I can't work it out. Thanks

Hi Does anyone know if I can purchase the same bridge that comes on the current USA fenders? The string through ones. Thanks

Hi I've been playing bass for a while now, about 6 years I think and I seem to be stuck in the same place. My style of playing is rather basic, mostly root notes with the odd 5th and/or 3rd. Sometimes I'll play an octave or head down the the 12th fret and play some high notes. I own...

Hi Got me new American Standard P yesterday. Here is a pic of it next to its slighty older brother. (I didn't NBD the Jazz, so its sort of a double NBD) Link Removed

I'm looking at better a P bass and I can't decide which. I recently bought an American Standard Jazz which I love. I'm looking at the Squier CV P 60s soon or the American Standard P later on in the year. Is the Fender worth the wait? I really like my fender jazz, it great. But is a fender P...

Hi A while ago I bought a cheap ibanez bass. I can't find it on their site, but its basically the GSR200. I have since bought better basses which I prefer to play and I was thinking of upgrading the pickups on the Ibanez. I've been eyeing out the EMG P/J Set. I'm not sure what I'm up...

Hi 2 questions 1) I recently bough a new fender american standard jazz bass. I was talking to the guy about guitar ages and sound. He told me that guitars sound better the more they 'get vibrated'. He said that the big concerts always have a large rack of guitars so those guitars can...

Hi Can someone tell me about this bass? All I know is that its an ibanez. Link Removed Link Removed Link Removed
