    String Donation Link?

    I remember a member starting a string donation program awhile back, but I can't seem to find the thread. I have several sets of used strings that I'm trying to donate. Could someone please help me find this? Thanks, JM

    Problem with uneven output

    I recently installed an Area J in the bridge position of my P/J project bass. It originally had a standard single coil J, and I wanted to get rid of the 60 cycle noise. Everything is wired and working with one problem. When I put both volumes to the same level, the E and A strings drop out...

    Help finding the P pickup comparison thread w/ soundclips

    Apologies in advance for cluttering the board with this request. I could have sworn that I either bookmarked or subbed to this thread, but I can't seem to find it again. Could one of you kind TB'ers please point me towards this righteous thread? It was very similar to the J pickup...

    Need help with very old Sunn model 8 PA cabinets

    I hope I have this posted in the right place. These are not mine, our band has been borrowing these from a friend for rehearsal space and I hadn't looked at them until the other day. When I did, this is what I saw. This is how they've been hooked up since we've been using them, and they've...

    Rate my custom design.

    I don’t like the look of the plain headstock, so with some searching around, I found a gentleman locally who does inlay work and has a laser etching machine that is large enough to do a bass neck. He etches custom PGs and trussrod covers, and does some inlay work as well. This is a...

    I think I see a pattern - am I crazy?

    I'll try to make this as brief as I can. I know a guy who is a phenomenal guitar player, and we've been jamming for a few months now. Well his current band is teetering on the edge of breakup due to internal strife that I'm not entirely familiar with, but he keeps griping on the bass player...

    FT - GB SM12

    This is my only amp at this point, so for now only trades will be considered. Until I sell something I have for sale here anyway and scoop up one of these streamliners I see up here. I've had this for about 16 months, bought it new. I'm pretty sure that I registered for the warranty. I...

    Fender Am Std Chrome Tuner Set

    $55 shipped to lower 48. SOLD I literally just got these today, but realized that I don't have the stones to drill the necessary holes to put them on the neck that I have. Instead, I'm going to buy the HB1s I need, and someone else can make good on my folly. These are used, and I'm pretty...

    Dimensions for vintage tuner screw-holes

    Hello folks, Where is a good place to look for the dimensions for the screw-hole spacing on vintage style tuners? On a similar note, where can I find info for the periods that fender uses the different tuner types (HB1, HB3, HB4)? I'm pretty surprised that I'm having such trouble finding...

    Precision pickup orientation?

    Weird and probably stupid question, but here goes. Does the orientation of the pickup matter? More specifically, I've flipped the top pickup so E is now A and vice versa. After I shielded the cavities of my P bass, I noticed that if I flipped the upper half of the pickup, I would have more...

    NBD - Fender RW Rave!

    So after hearing and reading about how great these are I decided to pick up a Roadworn P locally for a sweet price. I'm not even into the relic thing at all, but man WOW! It's all true, lightweight, great feel, killer tone. I really think Fender hit one out of the park on these RW's. As soon...

    Please set me straight - Roadworn P neck finish question

    Hello TB land. I hopt this is in the right place. On the Fender Roadworn series basses, they use gloss nitro with wear through. Now is that bare wood on the worn spots? Doesn't that expose the maple to warpage from humidity shifts? Or are the necks treated somehow before the nitro is...

    SOLD FT/FS G&L L2000 (GandL Tookay) BABP LE

    After much deliberation, I have decided to take this bass off the market. Thanks for the interest folks. A trade for a Fender Deluxe Precision with a maple board/satin neck that's either the early '00s passive model, or has an active/passive switch would be the cat's a$$, but we all know how...

    Lakland Barts?

    So after much searching to no avail, I must post this question. Is the neck J on the Bart equipped 44-02s a standard single or a split coil? Either way, it's great, just wondering. Thanks, Rex

    Fralins?

    So I picked up a JB awhile back and it purportedly had fralin's in it. When I received the bass, I noticed that one of the PUPs had pole pieces with beveled edges, while the other didn't. I ended up putting some NJ4s in it and when I removed the "Fralins", only one had the tag on the lead...

    Excellent rumble

    Alright, it's a growl thread in disguise. :hiding: In all seriousness, this bass tone is exactly what I'm trying to replicate, low end rumble/growl. Textured ripply goodness in the low end, like a purr. From what I've seen in the videos, Baron Browne plays a J. So I'm thinking it must...

    GK or Avatar, what would you do?

    So I'm cab shopping and had pretty much made up my mind on snagging a Neo 410 Avatar and making some upgrades (tbolts, 4th order crossover). Well, there's a sweet deal on a GK Neo212 over in the classifieds that has caught my eye. Haven't researched the GK much, but I'm sure it's sweet. I...

    Dunlop strap locks

    Greetings bass bretheren, Correct me if I'm wrong, which I sincerely hope that I am, but you can't buy just the buttons, can you? What a rip! That means you gotta buy the whole shebang just to get the extra sets of buttons you need for your other basses. I really want to use the dunlops...
