So I've been pretty much confined to bedroom playing for the last 4 or 5 months after getting used to playing at least 3 shows a month, with practice at least twice a week. I haven't gotten to play with a group since the spring, and now I'm playing with a fairly popular local group doing...

Alright everyone, I've been mulling this over for a couple weeks now, and I just honestly don't know what to do, so I've come to you guys. Without getting into the nitty gritty of the details, mostly out of respect to my singer/guitarist (from here on out he'll be addressed as "M"), things...

Scooped this from GC, apparently it was only there for a couple hours. Police hold went through good, now she's mine and I'm in love

So I've been a fairly steady smoker since I was 12 years old (I'm 20 now), so I've got 8 years of sweet, sweet nicotine dependence under my belt. Give me some super rough songs to work on (preferably 4 string, as I don't have a 5) to take my mind off of it, and also just to keep me from being a...

I just picked up a Fender Rumble V3 100 and...wow. Loud and light and sounds amazing, no one was exaggerating the coolness of these new Rumbles at all. Anyone else using these guys?? (And I know, no pics no amp, so here ya go :) ).

Hey folks! I post on the site occasionally, lurk obsessively, and had a buddy point out to me that this would probably be a good idea. ANYWHO I play in a three piece rockroll band, and we recently played our first show (which I personally feel went over quite well), and all three of us are...

I got a new toy today from the pawn shop, she's been beat up a little but she feels like buttah, for $170 I couldn't pass her up. I think she needs a stripper name, any suggestions?

I've stumbled upon the opportunity to pick up an Acoustic 126 combo with a 15" speaker for $75. Stock and functional, just a lil rough lookin around the edges. After using the almighty power of the search function and Google, I still find myself finding very little about these amps. Does anyone...

Alright, so here's the scoop. I went to a jam session with 30+ people in a tiny basement last night, and got to play a Carlo Robelli bass. This thing felt like a 4 string bag of magic in my hands, and I immediately fell in love. I ended up tracking down the owner, who said he never plays it, and...

Yesterday I picked up a Fender Modern Player Jaguar bass for $230, and it's blowing me away. I always played Squier prior to this, and thought that they were the same, but WOW!!! this thing is on a whole new level. It's amazing how much better it feels and sounds, I'm in love. I don't think I...

So this may very well be the coolest thing I've ever scored. Through a friend of a friend, I was given a "for parts" bass, guy said the pickups were shot. He didn't have an amp for me to try to solve the problem, said if I wanted it I could have it. Upon getting it home, I plugged it in without...

So after many years of only using overdrive, and going through many different pedals that I never really felt necessary, I finally have found an appreciation for modulation. I just got myself a Danelectro Fab Chorus to go along with my Joyo Ultimate Drive and Voodoo Octave, and its been tonal...

So Guitar Center had this little guy on sale for $49 for their extended Black Friday sales, and I figured "meh, why not?" Wowza. I am actually pretty impressed with this thing. Modern, clean tone, surprisingly loud for a 15 watt amp with an 8" speaker, needless to say I'm a fan. Haven't seen any...

Holy crap, I just found out about these guys thanks to Reddit. Definitely punk, but it's got a real solid blues feel too it. I don't know if these dudes are popular or if I'm late to the party, but I'm really digging the bassists style. Just wanted to share, maybe if anyone has more bands like...

Hello fellow TBer's! I have managed to find my way into a cover band, we're playing our (meaning my) first show together towards the end of next month. I'm 18 years old, and all these guys are in their mid 40's to upper 50's. I'm extremely excited, but they have a lot more experience than me...

Well, after a long time of only having a busted old Ibanez, I finally get to step it up! I'm thinking it needs a tort guard, but very excited nonetheless!!!

Alright, so this new group I'm joining is supplying me with a 6 string bass, tuned to drop E (E-B-E-A-D-F#). However, the only reason for the 6 string is that it can handle such a low tuning. We really have no need for the high C (F#), so I would like to switch to a 5er in the same tuning (minus...

Hello everybody! I wanted to ask everyone a question. After finances came into my life and led to me selling my basses, I've reached a point where it's possible for me to get another. I've been looking at Squier VM Jaguar basses (the regular scale, short feels strange to me). I was wondering if...
