Just curious if Gibson has sold even one of the 2015 SG Standards. Just played one at Guitar Center. It was nice but $1679.00? Honestly in all the hoopla I have read over the years about replacing the bridge with a hipshot I was not impressed. It made the bass heavier and looked wrong. If you...

Just got this today. Ordered from Guitar Center. I offered $567.00 on a whim to the store manager and well here it is. 2004 Fender American Series Jazz Rosewood neck. Black with black pg. S1 switch. First impressions: Looked much better than I thought it would. Plays very nice. Sounds...

Which one do you like and why? I like them both. Blues, classic rock, modern rock etc...

Any comments about the Mexican Deluxe Jazz appreciated. I dont want an active bass. Thanks

I purchased 4ea 1/4"-20 nylon lock nuts for 14 cents each. Slide them on the strings and it eliminates the inherit problem with Gibson bridge by bringing strings about 3/8" further back. This will put the windings behind the saddle where they belong. Works perfect. Stays in tune and sounds...

I really like the way this bass is built. Great neck, nice and light, good tuners and bridge. I just can't seem to get the right sound. Playing thru Genz Benz Neo-Pak head, 1x15, 2x10 Genz Benz older cabinets. No pedals, effects etc.. Sound is just too mushy, not cutting thru mix. Using Ernie...

Is it just me or are there way more used Jazz basses than Precision basses for sale? Look at GC and Craigslist. Why is this? Does this mean P basses are more popular or better? Personally I own both. Update I was trying to stir up a conversation about the used market. Don't see the value...

Painted pick guard on my Fender P Bass

I have a 2005 Hwy 1 Jazz. Will the neck fit a 2004 Fender Mike Dirnt MIM P bass? I like the tone of the pickups on the p bass. Love the neck of the J. Thanks for all your valuable input.

Has anyone tried painting their pick guards? I have an ugly white one and have been thinking about spray painting it. Any thoughts? Thanks

I just bought a new Squier VM Telcaster Bass Special in blonde. 299 at Guitar Center online I have owned about 15 basses in my lifetime. Playing off and on since late 70's. This is my first impressions and I will update this later and add some pics if anybody wants to see it. I love...

What is the reason for rosewood or maple fretboards I played a maple fretboard for the first time in years and I liked it. Seemed like the definition of my tone was better. any thoughts?

Can someone update me on the abbreviations being used on here? examples: NBD GAS VOS etc... I am sure there are some more I cant remember right now. Thanks

Anybody using this set-up? thoughts or opinions? I use an old Genz Benz 115, and XB210 on bottom because the 210 is stouter looking and a little wider. I like it. thanks

UPDATE 10/18/12 Thanks everyone who had suggestions. I turned my 210 cab vertically, disconnected the 410 cab on the bottom, moved about 2ft from corner and it sounds much better! I have a GB Neo-pak head (350w at 4ohms), GB 210XB cab, GK Goldline 4x10. I have played this rig at an outside...

Best deal I ever made on a bass: Ibanez SRA300 mint condition $120.00 in it. Found it on Craigslist. I love this bass, fast neck, light sleek body, plays like a dream. Worst deal: Sold my 2006 Fender Standard P bass on CL for $240.00 Ash body...deep regrets, second best bass I ever owned, sold...

What effect will current economic and environmental conditions have on guitar manufacturing? I am beginning to think all these cheap (but very well made guitars) may be worth something one day. There seems to be 5 million brands out there but I can't see how a bass you get these days for 300...

I would like to hear from some players who have (or who have had) one of these. What do you think about it, what mods have you done, etc... I think the nut looks real cheap but everything else about this one seems rock solid. I have had it for about a month. Bought it new at The Guitar Center...
