I've been thinking about getting a new pick guard for my jazz bass as the stock white seems pretty bland. I've been leaning towards black or possibly a black pearloid but I'm open to suggestions. Here's a pic of the bass in question

Hey guys, I've been using an EHX Bass Big Muff for the past couple years and recently I've become unhappy with it. I just can't seem to get a tone I'm happy with out of it. That's what brings me here; I'd like to find a suitable replacement. It seems to be a common consensus on the net...

After a year of using rounds for tuning to drop c I think I'm gonna try some flats. I have a set of ti's on my pbass tuned to standard and really like the tension. What flats would be about that tension tuned to cgcf? I've been using a rotosound 5sting set with the low b(.125) tuned up to c...

I recently bought a Macbook Pro with OSX and have been having a lot of fun recording through the built in mic into GarageBand. However, the quality of using the built in mic leaves a lot to be desired. In order to improve the quality of my recordings I plan on buying a USB or FireWire...

Neglected to really look it over before I left the store with it. I traded in an Ibanez sr405 and paid $300 for a "new" Schecter Diamond Custom P. My brother and I got the store about an hour and a half before close and I presented the guy at the desk with my bass and told him I wanted...

I recently picked up a Line 6 m5 and have primarily been using it as a compressor using the Tube Comp model. I use it primarily to even out levels on my drop C tuned basses at a fairly low threshold. I would like to purchase a standalone compressor pedal so that I can take advantage of the...

I have a MIM P-bass and have been generally happy with it. However, after lowering my action on the g string to about 1/16" at the last fret, if I play any note frets 8-19 I hear the note of the 20th fret. I'm not sure if a simple tightening of the truss rod will help as my neck is fairly...

I adjusted the truss rod on my Sterling Ray34 approximately 5 hours ago to straighten the neck out. On my three other basses (A MIM Fender P, A Squier CV Jazz, and a cheap Precision knock-off) I'm used to seeing at least some noticeable difference in the neck within about an hour. Thus far...

Searches for both whammy and bypass turned up tons of results but nothing regarding the quality of the whammy's bypass. Is tone suck an issue with these units? Also, where is the best spot in a signal chain for a whammy? Thanks in advance.

I recently bought a squier classic vibe jazz and after getting it home and playing it a bit with the stock strings on, I decided to replace them with some DR's I had laying around. While tuning and after tuning there was buzz from the nut when playing open and when fretting notes. Open and...

Anyone know what size hex key is used to adjust string height on the stock CV bridges? I tried the key I've been using to adjust my MIMs but it doesn't fit. Thanks in advance:cool:

I just bought a used Spector Legend and after bringing it home, I set to work on straightening out the neck, which I had noticed had quite a bit of relief to it. To begin with, I removed the strings to allow the neck to settle back into a straight position. This was about 5 hours ago. The...

This bass just showed up on guitarcenter.com in the used listings. Any ideas what model it is? At $229 I'm wondering if it would make a good Christmas present to myself :ninja: Thanks for the help!

I just received a Bass Big Muff today and after getting out of work, I couldn't wait to get home and try it out. So I plugged in, stomped the pedal, and nothing. No sound at all. In bypass it works but when the effect is active, no sound is heard. Any idea what the problem is? Thanks. It's...
