Hey guys,i have a peavey milestone ii bass, which has basically a precision style body. I love the way the neck feels, the fact that its super light (which I suspect is part of my problem), but it neckdives like crazy. I want to fix it for free or cheap. I need new tuners, since one is pretty...

Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying this Squier J from my local goodwill. It's pretty cheap, but the problem is that it has this sharpie marking on the headstock: As you can see, they sanded through the poly, and logo, and wrote of the bare wood. Is there a way to get this off? Would it all...

Hey guys. I wanted to know if there are any companies out there making basses with T bird style bodies, but without the conventional T bird features like a thru neck, sunburst, and Soapbars. Basically I want to have a bass that is a throwback to the 80's T Bird copies. It seems like a lot of...

Does anyone have a different T-40 wiring diagram, or a quality picture of a loaded t-40 pickguard with "clean" wiring? I have a PDF of the T-40 manual and wiring diagram that came out back in the day, but I'm not a big fan. I really like the Duncan style wiring diagrams. They're clean...

For Christmas, my girlfriend bought me the bass I've had my eye of for quite some time: A Black on Black 1981 Peavey T-40. It's perfect except for two things: Some fool decided to replace the steel nut with a graphtech one, and The bridge pickup only works when I put the pickups out of phase. I...

Hey guys. I recently acquired a first act short scale that I plan to use for a Tele bass project.When I got it, the neck had crazy bow, and insane fret buzz. So about 3 days ago, I tightened the truss rod quite a bit, and it seemed to help out after settling over night. However, the action was...

Okay, this is probably a newbie question, but whatever. I'm using a peavey TNT 115, from the early to mid 90's (as far as I know) And it has Pre gain, high/low knobs, a 7 band graphic eq, volume, bright and punch switches, and built in chorus. Recently, I've been turning the pre gain up to 10...

I'm planning on starting a drum and bass project with my friend, with little or no guitar. So, I'm looking for bass lines, bassists, bands, etc to draw influence from. Some of the guys who have the most influence over my style are Duff McKagan, James Jamerson, and Victor Damianti/Gabe Nelson...

Hey guys. A while back, there was a thread about cool pawn shop finds. I thought it was a cool thread, but was discouraged to hear that with the advent of ebay, the days of pawnshop deals are pretty much over. A look around my local pawn shops confirmed this. However, I was watching this video...

Got my first gig in September. Better get schooled. I think that this video could be valuable to anyone here on TB. remember, the ladies need to see your bratwurst! How to play bass on stage - YouTube

The bridge on it currently: http://s818.photobucket.com/albums/zz105/mooreon131/?action=view&current=001.jpg is an ibanez B10 bridge, according to their website. As you can see it has 2 screws in the back, and 4 at the front. I couldn't find a good replacement in my cursory google search. I was...

I'm posting this here, because I'm probably gonna catch a lot of flack for it, and surely there will be jokes at my expense. But that's good, I want a reaction. I want to hear the thoughts of the TB community. Currently I'm playing an Ibanez GSR 190 (the bass that comes with the jumpstart...

I've seen a few sites out there, such as: China Wholesale, Buy Wholesale Products from Chinese Wholesalers - TradeTang.com as well as Invalid Link Removed Who supposedly sell Rickenbackers. Now I'm not a moron (despite my handle), so I know that these are obviously not Rickenbackers, however...

Alright, I'm thinkin about getting a Bronco bass which comes with a squier strat (i think its a strat anyway) bridge pickup in it stock. I didn't know that you could actually do that and a get a "decent" sound out of it until like a week ago. So I wanna know if anybody has put a guitar pickup in...
