    CALLING ALL TBers! FIELD TRIP FOR STATISTICS!

    This is a request for all TBers to head to your local GuitarCenter and record the serial number of the Gretsch Electromatic G5123B Hollowbody bass there (if there's one there, at all). This is a very limited run bass, and we'd like to get an idea of how many were made. Since these are...

    Silly Comparisons...

    Today, I got a photo update from Squier on Facebook and it showed a VM jazz that's been made available. The bass is TSB with a black pickguard, maple neck with black binding and black block inlays. The *first* comment on the picture was "Squier version of the newer Geddy...how about in Black...

    I went into Music-Go-Round yesterday and picked up a new-as-used Kustom KBA100, brought it home, plugged it up, and proceeded to knock things off the walls in the house *next*door* with it. It's got tons of low end, the Celestion driver is responsive and moves a ton of air, the effects are...

    What's a gently used Geddy worth?

    I have a gently used Geddy that still has a year on the GC two-year fully-transferable warranty. I'm thinking real hard about selling it to fund a project (or maybe buy a stack), and was hoping to get input from you fine folk as to what I should expect to get for it. I made a clear...

    Fretboard Diagram

    There are several of these online, but I made this one today because I didn't like any of those. It's a full .png, so all the layers and elements are preserved. It's also 20" x 3" (roughly), meant to be printed across two sheets of paper. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Enjoy

    Where would I get...

    ...a piece of 1/8" to 3/16" thick (x 11" x 14") highly-figured maple?

    The Squier Project: Fingerboard Phase Complete

    First phase of the Squier Project was to get a BadAss Bass II bridge on it. Phase complete. The next phase was to get some inlay decals installed and looking proper while maintaining playability. This was something of a trick, but I'm happy to say this phase is now complete. After a little...

    Overdue

    It's long overdue that I get a TB membership and start contributing to a community that's already given me so much. I started playing bass about 4 months ago, and TB has answered so many countless questions I've had since then. I'm happy to be here and am ready to contribute a hand to the cause :)
