Greetings TalkBass! I'm Tyler, the bassist with The Archimedes Death Ray, a death metal band from Davenport, Iowa. We have just released a demo of our upcoming EP. I'm super proud of the work we put in, and wanted to share with you guys. We did all the work ourselves, with the exception of the...

I remember seeing in a thread that Ibanez put the bridge pick up in the neck position, and vice versa for the neck pick up. I've got a NTMB coming for the 505, and was thinking about switching the pickups while I'm at it. I've got a SR600 with a NTMB, but didn't switch the pickups when I was in...

I just read in the new issue of Bass Player April 2014, the announcement of the NTMB+, it's the same as the predecessor, but 30% smaller. It also boasts a lower noise floor. To me, this seems as it might make it easier for the every day hobbiest to make the install themself, as opposed to...

So I was perusing at the local music shop when I found a Big Muff NYC. The price was right, so it came home with me. Right off the bat, I was digging the sound, but (always a but), I hated the scooped mids. So, I decided to change that. With some searching and careful thought, I decided which...

Tomorrow I get the pleasure to attend a workshop before Victor Wooten's show. Unfortunately the tickets sold like a wild fire, and were gone in a heart beat. But, there is a workshop/clinic before hand that I was able to grab a couple tickets up for five dollars a pop. I plan on bringing $50...

Just wanted to share my experience with my fellow TBers about a mod package I bought from Fromel Electronics a while back. It's for a Boss HF-2 flanger. My brother just moved back into town, and he used to calibrate oscilloscopes, so he's handy with a soldering iron. Today he replaced the...

I just picked up the new bass to my arsenal, and it's a Squier VM Jazz. Right out of the box the set up was better than the MIM Fender Jazzes at the store, and rivaled the MIA Jazz. I'm not saying it's better, just that it rivals it. I just got in yesterday some new cabs, and with the money I...

I woke at 9:00 a.m. this morning to be sure that my cabinets didn't get dropped off by the brown truck only to be snagged up by some neighborhood hoodlums. I have been anxiously waiting on the couch by the front door all day to hear the sound of the diesel truck I am so familiar with. (I'm...

I am currently looking to upgrade my cabinet for my amp. I'd like to be able to use two cabs, so individual cabinets is the route I'm looking to take. I have looked over most cabs in my price range. <$500 each. I'm not looking to spend a month(s) (or two :hmm:) amount of work on a couple...

Hello all! I've got a few things I'd like to talk about. First off, I'm a newcomer to the world of bass. I'm a guitar player turned bassist. I picked up the bass just over a year ago when my buddy (drummer) asked me to play bass for his band, and I was reluctant to grab that old $50 bass guitar...
