Hi friends, My Taylor / Klein ABG has a weird truss rod adjuster, and none of my socket wrenches can fit in the tiny-tight space that it resides (see photo). Any and all helpful advice on what tool to buy at my local hardware store (or a direct link to where it is on Amazon) to be able to...

Not sure if this has been posted before, but as a huge TL fan, I've never seen this. Great concert with some heavies! Would this be TL's first electric bass? I only ask since I remember hearing an anecdote where his first electric bass he owned was a used P, purchased in NYC in the early 70's...

Just released today on Cheryl Pyle's bandcamp, these are tracks that we did in ode to certain visual artists such as Izabella Ortis, Olga Rozanova, and Richard Anuszkiewicz. Cheryl Pyle: flutes, effects Max Ridgeway: guitar Randall Colbourne: drums ...and myself on acoustic bass. Thanks for...

Our new free-improv record, just released this last week. Feat. Oklahoma-based guitarist Max Ridgway and myself on acoustic bass. Thanks for listening......:

Off market.

I really want to see this but I don't live on the west coast to catch the show. Hopefully it will be streamed like Fred's Standup for Drummers show (which was really good, too). Fred Armisen Presents: "Comedy for Bass Players but Everyone is Welcome" Residency Shows

Hello all, is there a reverb pedal available that, when the effect is deactivated, the reverb trail can still be heard but what you are currently playing isn’t “effected”? Extra points if the pedal has the same form factor as the TC Hall of Fame. Thanks everyone!

Hello all, After doing a thorough search high and low all over the dang internet, for the life of me I can't find where I can find a piccolo bass set that can tune up to ADGC, the tuning that @Brian Bromberg uses (and sounds so amazing). Normal piccolo sets can't tune up that extra fourth, so...

I've just recently found this great bass player with a great retro smooth pop concept. Simultaneously funny and really good music in the vein some of the better 1980's pop acts. I'm told that he's a great jazz bassist, as well. Anyone Down Under can tell us more about Mr. Benet?

Stumbled across this. Fantastic, short video:

At 2:25, you'll see a Tele-style short scale bass (almost Guild Ashbory size). It sounds pretty good. Anyone have any info on the make and model of this bass? Perhaps it's homemade? Either way, it's always fun to see old videos of the DZ!

Interested if any TB'er has any suggestions. Thanks again, TB.

Priced to move at $1150 CONUS, including shipping. Excellent condition and originally purchased from Sweetwater, this is a 2016 Fender Jazz Elite with a professionally installed Audere Pro JZ3D VB 3B pre-amp (see below for photos for receipt of this installation). Also includes a Hipshot...

When I hear people say they want a more "organic" sound, I think they are actually meaning they want a more "acoustic" sound. Is there something about the definition of "organic" withing the context of musical instruments / gear I'm missing?

To the best of my knowledge, there hasn't been a signature EBMM bass by one of their predominately bass-playing artists. The closest I can think of is: 1. The OLP Tony Levin bass that was a Stringray 5 H, made about 15 years ago. 2. The Classic series EBMM basses that came with the "Sledge"...

At 2:31 in this video, the end of NHOP's FB has some interesting textures. Was this some way of combining the FB and the magnetic pickup that he reportedly used (the "String Charger" if I remember correctly)? Those don't look like normal "wear" markings, or anything I've seen before.

Just curious. Thanks everyone.

Searched all over for some footage, found none. How about you? :)

Hello all, I'm looking for recommendations for shops that offer double bass setup in the Kansas City / Lawrence KS area. I'm a jazz guy, so I'm looking for the usual "low action no buzzing" treatment (I rarely use the bow). I used to go to Mass Street Music in Lawrence back in the day (great...

Some fantastic footage of Mr. Jenkinson and his Bongo 6. Sounds amazing:

Lee, Talking with my dentist today (who is also a bass player and a fan of yours), he mentioned that he saw a show with you about your Shriner collection. He used to be the head of the Shriners here in Wichita and said that he could give you a couple boxes worth of stuff if you wanted it. How...

I was playing around with my Carvin BX500 today and decided to plug directly into the effects return, since I've not been crazy about the parametric EQ. The sound with my EBMM is so much better, by a factor of 10 (subjectively, of course!). So much better I'm contemplating getting a second one...

Hello all, I've a couple-years-old, barely and gently used Carvin BX500 head that I use to power a Carvin 4x10, which was purchased at the same time as the head. The Master volume goes from nothing to very loud within the first number of the master volume. I'd like it to not jump up in volume...

Is Dee Murray using some kind of octaver on this album? I can hear what seems to be some kind of octaver pedal on the last track/jam (during "Get Back"). EDIT (8/20/2016): via @D.M.N.'s post: the effect(s) were added during a remaster session in '96. I wasn't sure of this; I thought the...

Just curious if there has ever been any chatter about this. It would be great to think I could still get a Classic Sabre in some cool color/wood combos, if even at a premium price. And, after the massive model and color cutbacks on the bass side, it seems that a custom shop would be an...

Morning folks, Did a long search on TB and Google in general, and can't find an answer. So...: -What would be the extra expenses (US import taxes, or whatever...) tacked onto a bass (let's say a new Status bass made in the UK) that is purchased new in the UK and sent to the US? I'm quite...

Edit: full photos a few posts down. -jp I see that EBMM has introduced two new, passive models called the Caprice and Cutlass. The link below has a couple, very close photos of these new basses but no photos showing the whole thing. Am I missing a link or something? Would be nice to see these...

Just curious which of us TBer's are in LA for the big show, and if you are, would you please post some cool bass-related reports/pics? :) I'd love to see some highlights from the Ernie Ball Music Man booth!
