Seeking the wisdom of TB…these originally came strung on my Euro when I first bought it and have since recycled onto my project PJ. They’ve got silks at both ends and appear to be stainless, very smooth to play and have a pretty evenly balanced response across the frequency spectrum to my ears...

If you combined different parts from different manufacturers…say MFD pickups with a non-trim TonePump. RIP amp and speakers :D Better yet, has anyone built one? Failing that I’d love to hear about what your hottest output bass is and how much more ballistic it is compared to something more...

I’ve currently got a GK700RB-II head and a tide over Avatar SB112 neo cab. This is great for rehearsal and quiet practice, but looking ideally for a 2x12 to help get that head cranking. I know the GK Neo 212 is a logical choice, but are there another good alternatives out there? Most common...

Hi guys, I've had this old MB Compressore sitting in my drawer for the last 8 or so years, lost the original power supply so got a new 12v 600mA from eBay and went to fire it up, and....absolutely nothing! Tried the footswitch, nada. Tried a few different power sockets just in case it was...

Hi guys, Tried to do a search for these amps but yielded no results. Thinking about upgrading from my Fender Rumble 75 to something a little more modular. At the moment the new(ish?) Marshall MB450H has caught my eye. Looks pretty cool. I like the fact that you can switch between classic and...

I did a thorough search on the forum but found nothing. What in your opinion is the best way to clean the back of the neck after playing? I normally get a damp cloth and run it lightly over the back then get a dry cloth and do the same until it's all smooth. I only use a tiny bit of water...

Hi all, just after your collective wisdom (again) :p I was restringing my P copy when the nut cracked over the D string and snapped in two :crying: I've already reglued it once with plastic cement but I think because the nut is very cheap and hollow, I'm not going to bother reglueing it...

Interesting, the US Ibanez site says the SR400QM has a Mahogany/Quilted Maple top, but the Australian site says it's Basswood :confused: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Is this a typo on the Australian site in that to my understanding the 2010 model was...

Was procrastinating from doing my uni work and found this on the bay: 1964 Fender Jazz bass SPARKLE GOLD 64' Vintage RARE U2 | eBay [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] The latest bid is already US $6300 :eek: Is this a...

I recently did a DIY restoration on my P copy and am in the market for some rounds that will die the quickest. Why, you might ask? Before I underwent the project I had a 2 year old set of EB super slinkies on it and I loved the tone of the strings. The only problem was that the strings suffered...

So I'm trying to cure GAS for my next amp upgrade (which will hopefully be by the end of the year) and I've been doing some prospective amp research (looking at getting either a 500W micro head + 2x10 or a hybrid tube/SS like the Fender TB600) So, on all the amps/cab combos I've seen in the US...

So my next bass is going to be the Ray34, little did I know that they made a limited edition in white!!!! :hyper: anyone else GASing for it? I think it looks sweet! [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

So I've had my SR400QM for a little over a week, and honestly it's the best bass I've personally owned (love the elixir strings, neck is super fast and skinny, the low action is great etc) BUT, I still cannot get the tone I want out of it - it's just a bit muddy/dull, no matter how much I tweak...

I managed to get a new Peavey Max 112 for $300 AUD (down from $400) in conjunction with my new SR400QM, however I've noticed this odd rattle that only happens when I play an A (must be the frequency, it's the same regardless of fret position) Doesn't happen with any other note, so I'm...

Wondering if anyone has played with these and what they thought of them? I might buy them if I hear good things about them - they're only $27! :D

I'm picking up my SR400QM this weekend and for all intents and purposes intend on walking out of the music store with a new amp (currently own a 15W Behringer practice amp but I hate the tone) I've limited my price range to $200AUD max, and have so far narrowed it down to these two. I'm...

Hi there, long-time reader, first time poster! I have ordered a 2011 SR400QM (which I get to pick up this weekend :smug:) - I tried to find out about this brand of pickups and whether they were any better to the factory-produced ones on the previous model, but found nothing :( I was able...
