I've put a Seymour Duncan Vintage P-bass pickup in the neck position of my Fender Aerodyne bass, paired with a Classic Stack Jazz Bass pickup at the bridge. In some environments, I get significant hum from the P pickup. Is this normal? I'm pretty sure I wired it correctly. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I recently bought a Fender Aerodyne, and I replaced the original Fender strings with a set of GHS Pressure Wounds to reduce the string noise. The issue I'm having is that I notice an odd resonance when I play up the neck, especially on the E and A strings. It sounds like an additional tone...

This is a SansAmp Bass Driver DI pedal in like new condition. It comes with the original tin box and manual. I have never gigged with it, it has never left the house. I wanted to try this, but I've decided I prefer using just a compressor and no other effects to keep things simple. I'm not...

This is an FEA Dual Band SMX Optical Compressor. This is the one with 3 knobs per band (threshold, ratio and gain). It's in excellent condition functionally and cosmetically. I replaced the knobs because the original knobs have faint indicator lines that were hard to see. (I'll include the...

I have a medium scale bass (Fender Urge) that will accommodate long scale strings, but I wanted to know what the string tension would be with any given long set on my medium bass, and I found a way. GHS has a Bass String Tension Guide on their website...

I'm looking for a fretless bass, and I've found a used Yamaha RBX270F on Craig's list. The guy is asking $250. That seems a little high based on what little I've been able to find online about them. Does anyone know what these basses went for when new (either the fretted or fretless version)...

I think bass manufacturers should publish the weight of their products. I know that there are optional configurations that will affect the weight, and there will be some difference from unit to unit because of variations in wood density. Still, I don't see any reason why they can't publish the...

I'm looking for a light 12" cabinet, and I wonder if anyone has experience with these two and can compare them? I want something with a solid bottom end and good clarity in the midrange, not muddy or boomy sounding. I have the Genz-Benz Shuttle 3.0-10T combo, and it's great for what it is...
