I've been practicing filling fret slots on 2 different necks with some veneer, i.e. going fretless. Looking for glue recommendations. So far I've used a 2 step CA glue (Loctite) and regular Titebond wood glue. The CA stuff took more work to sand down, but it didn't have a tint to it, the...

We own an old Epson that has decided to be a jerk about the ink cartridges all of a sudden. So not being up to date on the latest scams to extract $$$ from my wallet, I am a little disappointed to see SUBSCRIPTIONS being required on some printers or else they won't print. What in the holy...

Do you absolutely need a 3rd party provider, be it P.R.O. (ASCAP, BMI) or some other 'distributor' or music library service to offer your material to the public? Which is betterer? Exlusive or non-exclusive? I've done some reading/watching videos but all the info out there is just overloading my...

I have a SS amp with an EQ section that features a knob to select a (high) freq, and a corresponding knob to adjust the level of that freq. 0-10. I assume it's boost type control only. The pot for the level/boost control is bad, it's value is 10k. The only thing I have on hand is a 50k - would...

Say you've been ousted from a regular, well-paying gig after a couple of years of hard work and dedication (at least it was a great addition to the resume). Since then, you've been considering a couple of next steps: hanging it up for good, learning some other instrument (re: staring from...

Tell me about it.

Is it still Craigslist? Or something like Bandmix, and for session people, is it Fiverr or Airgigs etc? Do people use Facebook for this? Any other ways I am missing out on? What's everyone's experience been like in say the last 1-3 years?

Local seller, who can't read the label on the back of his own cab. I tried, he's clearly not interested. 2x10 and '80s/early '90s old logo era. ???

I think Ernie Ball does a .110? La Bella does a .118 LTF.... Who else? Lighter than .120?

Contender 1 - Bacchus WJB5-630-RSM: roasted maple neck, active preamp Contender 2 - Sire V3P, passive, has Marcus Miller plastered on the headstock Contender 3 - used MIM Fender passive circa 2000's My hangup w/ the Sire is obviously the guy's name on it. I don't have a beef with him, but...

https://www.talkbass.com/threads/vigier-ended-my-gas.1664532/ Long story short, my second (!) Vigier arrived, this time an unmolested/stock Passion II in sexy black, reasonably priced, and I was a good boy this year, G-Damnit. With the case! It seems the liner is disintegrating...... Upon...

I'm thinking about going back to all 15”. I have a modern lightweight 1x12 (no tweeter) that is highly regarded and it was bought in case gigging happened again, but with current life situations, it's not going to happen any time soon. My heads are all old SS or tube. I think the modern cab...

Any ideas on this one? No markings anywhere but the emblem on the grille. 2x15, not sure what speakers are inside.

I like weird, borderline garbage and making it better. This thing is 31” scale and other than the bridge, seems fine. The bolt on neck feels like a modern C and the frets look newish. The bridge seems to have brass saddles/retainers, but the bottom plate is a pile of pot metal looking trash. I...

About 2 days ago I stopped getting email notifications when someone PM'd me. Nothing is different on my end, and I didn't change anything. Disregard, my email provider is the culprit.

Now being parted out in the parts classifieds

Made circa '92-93, MIK, according to various sources this was made at the Cort factory. Neck: rosewood fretboard, at some point it had the little 'Squier Series' label on the headstock removed (not by me). Honest wear & tear, great modern C neck and frets. Neck plate & screws included. $200 obo...

Made circa '92-93. At some point it had the little 'Squier Series' label on the headstock removed (not by me). Has some honest wear & tear but nothing more than typical little dings and fine scratches, nothing major. The pickup route was enlarged so I could switch between stock and reverse P...

Every time I pick up a P-bass with a Modern C profile it's like comfort food. I cut my teeth on a early 90s MIK Squier, and have a standard mid-90s Korean P currently. I could get rid of every other bass and be content, nah, F that noise...BUT when I pick up a '70s P or my Tele bass they get put...

Great sounding amp, just some minor handling wear & tear. Comes with Mesa carrying case, power cable. Build date is from July 2016. Total Power: 800W @ 4 ohms, 400W @ 8 ohms EQ: Active 4-band EQ Inputs: 2 x 1/4" (instrument, aux) Outputs: 2 x speakON, 1 x XLR (DI) Headphones: 1 x 1/4" Weight...

New low price! Got it in a trade and not really needed in my house. Has minor wear & tear, sounds frickin' huge and loud as hell. Not to be confused w/ the standard MB-500, I was told this one is the A5 revision, with A6 being the last before it changed. Dead quiet at idle. 500W at 4 ohms...

Off the market

3 point version, chrome. $80 shipped, used but in very good cond, some handling wear & tear, the bolts are included.

I'm purging gear but want a budget 5-string to replace a nice Curtinsmith that I'm not vibing with. Also, reason being that I don't need one that often, but still want one around for when I do, something that will just get the job done. All of these except the Talman are about the same money...

I briefly owned one of their VJ74 Icon's and it wasn't terrible - I ended up putting the neck in one of my Fenderbirds for a while. I'm curious if these are okay-ish along the same lines, as I am purging a bit but still want a decent budget 5 string to have around for the few times it's called...

^ ^ ^ see above :cigar:

Circa early '70s (probably '73-74 based on the resources I've found) 30.5" scale 7 lbs 14 oz Great fast neck with good frets Killer Van Ghent tuners All the mojo, vibe, wear & tear you'd want with none of the depricated BS of a busted vintage instrument. The 'mute' switch is a little flakey, but...

This is a custom order built by Paul Curtinsmith in Australia. It's a passive circuit with a monster Stonewall pickup with series/parallel & a unique tone switch. I had him install a nicer Schaller bridge. Asking $2400 Price dropped to $2200 Now $2100 $2000!!!? $1799 I prefer to sell...

Used the wrong stepped bit and overcooked the hole slightly. Without having to resort to filling the hole with a dowel and all that jazz, what are some other options? I was thinking of using some putty and then reaming it out. Does anyone make bushings with really wide flanges? :bored:

ooo! ooo! Look at me! I spent moneys! :cigar: I kind of shy away from coffee table potato basses, but I was looking at short scale 5 strings and Paul Curtinsmith in Australia builds pretty cool ones. For those that care about the woods - swamp ash body, roasted curly maple neck, wenge/padauk...

Cleaning out some parts. Some new, some used, some 'parts is parts'. All right handed! Pic one: there are at least 6 brand new PING tuners in here somewhere, with mounting screws Pic two: 2 black generic guitar tuners left over from an 8 string project, one black bass tuner, and two chrome...

Other than the clear coat that flaked off, this neck is in good condition, it's straight and has lots of fret life left. Perfect clean slate if you wanted to sand off the rest of the clear and apply a custom decal. The Squier neck plate is included. $100 shipped

Harley Benton neck, NEW taken off the Tele bass PB-50, satin finish, no hardware, 2.5" heel width, $50 shipped. Zero play time, zero fret wear, and I'll throw in the tuners for free if you want them, ferrules or string tree not included. Need it gone, taking up space.

I got this bass brand new from Thomann. My plan was to basically use it for parts, other projects, Frankenstein basses etc. but plans change as they always do. The bass was only played for about 5 min total, so basically everything is brand spanking new. I did not make any modifications other...

Just had some work done to it and it plays/sounds cool, but I'm just not meshing with it. Refretted, new nut (made to match original), new fretboard markers, tuners lubed, general clean up and intonation set. Black refin done by previous owner (headstock face left untouched), paint looks ok but...

I basically rewired a bass today and to my memory I don't remember it being a dark sounding bass but maybe I'm brain fried from being hunched over it for a few hours. It just kind of sounds like the tone is rolled off a bit even with the tone pot at max if that makes sense. The pots are 250k...

Can someone tell me the neck heel width and/or other rough heel dimensions? I'm trying to see if a certain aftermarket body will work with this neck.

Looking for a single pickup recommendation for a upcoming project single pickup 5-string, placed in the sweet spot or slightly towards the bridge. I don't really want to go with any of the usual suspects (Nord, Aguilar, Bart, SD, EMG etc.)....right now I am kind of big on a reversed P-bass PU...
