    Daily Morning Routine

    I've been working out lately, for the past four months or so, and I've started seeing some results that I would like to make permanent. I know staying away from alcohol and fast food is key. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing, I just want to add maybe some stretches and some sit up/ push up...

    MM Stingray pup in a Fender style bass

    I am curious if this is something that anyone has done. I want to start a project that includes a bit of wood working and finishing. I thought that I could order a warmoth unfinished neck and finish it myself and maybe make my own body (or again go with an unfinished and unrouted body) and do...

    Meeting up with CL people

    If you are potentially going to buy a bass from a guy on Craigslist what precautions do you take? like where do you meet up to play the bass? do you take cash with you or return with it after you have played the bass? do you negotiate the price once you have met up and played it or...

    offer I couldnt refuse

    recently picked these speakers up from a venue that I frequent. He said as long as I took them I could just have them! he said that they worked so I couldn't just say no to free gear! I'm not going to lie, I had a few beers and I didn't really look up anything about them. I was just curious if...

    Too much flair onstage?

    So I've been in this "blues/rock" band for about three and a half months now and we have played a few gigs with good reviews, played a festival which led to a few more, so now we are playing a mix of private parties (most at bars, one at a house) and bar gigs until our next non-bar gig which is...

    Adding My own colored thread to a set of strings

    So you know how some strings have that colored string wound around the end where it makes contact with the tuning nut. well I'm about to do a string change on the old fiver and was curious if I could just put my own colored thread/string on a set of strings that doesn't have any. I imagine it's...

    A good set of 14mm tuners

    I have a five string and have replaced quite a few parts on it already, the tuners have yet to be replaced and they don't seem too solid, but they aren't really problematic, but maybe there could be a style upgrade out there somewhere. my bass takes the standard 5-inline 14mm tuners (it's a...

    Putting a Head with a Cab

    hello! I'm a relatively new bassist that has kinda gotten in over his head. I started playing in a blues band and my guitarist has a loud ass tube amp, I have a peavy TNT 115s, which is an old 1x15 combo amp. I'm not quite able to match his level so he's talking about helping me out with a new...

    Bridge Cover able to fit over a Babicz FCH 5-string bridge

    I have a fender MIM 5-string JBass. I just replaced the bridge with a Babicz 5-string full contact bridge and was wondering if there were any bridge covers that fit over it. The only one I have found that claims to be able to "fit one most four and five string basses" is the SX bridge and pickup...
