The description kills me:)

Hi. Title says it all, but I also included a picture for reference. Are these little control pots "soldered" to the board, or are they plug-and-play? Both "gain" knobs are problematic, so hoping to replace them. Thanks

Just a feeler post. If you have a Schecter J-5 with the newer headstock and are wanting to trade for my early 2000's Korean Spector Legend 5 string, let me know. The J-5 is really the only bass of interest due to its 35" scale length and 1.77" nut, but feel free to hit me with other 5 string...

Title says it all, for the most part. Still have not found a 5 string jazz that I like, but want to, haha. I have owned 3 Fender Jazz Basses over the years, and couldn't stand the wide nut, neck profile, or the floppy B that came on all of them, very uncomfortable. If you know of any jazz...

Ha! Hated the Tonepump Junior preamp in my Secter Legend 5. Purchased a $20 two-band preamp and it sounds/works great, definitely more tone shaping ability, better than the Tonepump. It's always nice finding something you like that's cheap, hope it will go the distance. Don't hassle my...

This is a new/unused Audere Preamp that was purchased for a jazz bass upgrade (sold the bass). I am looking for a "Pre-Wired" preamp with 4 control knobs/pots. It can be from any of the big-name preamp companies (Audere, Aguilar, John East, Nordstrand, etc...), and with most any configuration...

Looking for the cab mentioned in the title. The NXT112 is in great shape, has a few minor scratches. Would add some money to help cover shipping, or some cash if we can do a local deal in California. Thanks

Feeler trade, for similar era MTD Artist 5 "active" bass made in Korea, the one with the funny looking pickguard:). The Spector is in good shape, has a great neck, and weighs in around 9.5 pounds. The spacing at the bridge is a little tight for me, and would be nice to pick up another Korean...

Just a feeler, will get actual pics up as soon as possible. I have a Genz Benz Shuttle 6.0 and 2 Genz Benz 12t cabs as a possible trade (each cab rated at 300 watts). Both cabs were originally part of individual combo units, so I actually have 2 harnesses, so you could have 2 separate combos by...

Picked up an early 2000's MTD Artist and really dig it. Here is a video from the Halloween private party last weekend with that bass, love the way it looks on stage, and an absolutely killer neck/fretboard. Yes, I am wearing a wig:) Disclaimer: The sound guy forgot to put my cabs in the...

Found this older Korean Spector 5 for sale locally, and trying to find some details and opinions. It has EMG-SSD pickups which I am assuming are a knock-off of some sort, or made-for Spector pickup. Here are some pics. I need a "beater" bass for one of the bands I am in, and I prefer 35" scale...

Looking to trade for a Genz Benz STL-210t extension cab only, or the stl-210t combo cabinet. In return you get my stl-12t and its original saddle (no amp). Sorry all, not interested in selling, I have another stl-12t and really want the matching stl-210t, otherwise I will continue rocking the...

Hey all. Put some "flats" on my MTD Artist (early 2000's) and as to be expected I lots a tremendous amount of highs (passive controls, and a single tone pot). However, on my Stingray the same strings have loads of high end. I believe the pots were upgraded on the MTD, here is a picture of them...

Have a nice and very powerful Crown K2 amplifier that has seen little use, and looking for a GK Fusion 800 or Markbass Tube 800, pluse a little money to you. Just a feeler

Title says it all. Looking for a GK Fusion 800 or Markbass Tube 800. Will add some money for either head. The Shuttle functions as it should, and no dents/dings (some scratches on top). Can send more pics if you have something of interest. Also have a Crown K2 power amp in excellent condition...

Been wanting a unique shape, and something I can take to the more shady places we play. A big and punchy sound, especially for being a passive instrument, and an unbelievably awesome neck for the price-point (great B string). We will see if I can get used to the 35" scale and 19mm spacing, but...

No longer available

A near-mint EBS with box for an EQ pedal. A parametric EQ is preferred, but OK with others. Depending on what you have, I could throw in a fun little Donner Morpher guitar pedal that does a solid job emulating the 80's overdrive sound. Be well

I have heard the older cabs are heavy on the mids, which is not a bad thing. But, how is the "deep/low-factor" on this specific cab? Even after a couple Google searches, can't seem to find any specs or TB reviews on this specific Schroeder configuration. Would like to think a 12 and 15 could...

Title says it all, any thoughts? And yes, talking reggae/dub deep at "medium" size venues. We usually have PA support outdoors (our system), but occasionally (at certain venues) there is no "sub" provided with the on-site PA. Liked my old Eden D410XLT, it came close by itself, but 100 pounds...

This is just a feeler trade, but in search of "specifically" a Genz Benz "Contour or Stl-210 extension cab that will pair with my 6.0 shutte combo. I could also "purchase" the cab if at a good price, rather than trade. The Stingray is in very good condition and has some really nice grain on the...

Link Removed Here is a little video from last weekend, just a crappy phone recording (this band is one year old, but play some great spots in our area). I put put flats on my Stingray for the first time and absolutely loved the sound at home, very percussive. Got them to our gig, and that...

Well, decided to try Flats again. After searching for some "higher tension" flats, went with GHS Precision Flats. Did not want to pay over $100 on strings for TI's or others, so this was a great budget option for some fairly high tension flats. The bass I put them on is used for a band that...

Still having major buzz problems that seem to be a grounding issue. Please read what I have already done first, thanks. I have followed all suggestions previously given. It has a MusicMan Nordstrand pickup with 5 leads and a pre-assembled John East MusicMan preamp. Symptoms: When I touch the...

Does anyone own this model, if so can you tell me the spacing at the bridge? Been trying to find a Jazz bass with a narrower nut and bridge spacing than the Fender stuff, have owned several and just can't get used to the wide nut width and spacing.The price is right on this Bacchus, so curious...

Do you, or would you, give the free/comped beverages/food provided for band members (by the venue) to someone else? That is the question in a nutshell. As a general rule, I do not give other people my band member "tickets/food/beverages" provided free by the venue (except my spouse). The venue...

I did a little research and cannot find anything on this bass. Have obviously heard of the Steve Harris Precision, but what the heck is this Harris bass? Seller is claiming it's a USA Fender made bass, and it has some sort of Fender pickups and bridge, but I have never seen that "Fender stamped"...

Beyond making it look shiny, are there any "specific benefits" to sanding/polishing the body after the clear coat is applied, such as creating a HARDER finish? It seems everyone does it, but my bass looks quite shiny, sparkly, and smooth after the gloss clear coat was applied, so not sure I...

Where to start. This should be easy but the manual on the East website is not correct for their preamp (I don't think), and there is no wiring diagram on the Nordstrand website for their pickup. I have the "already plate mounted" version of the East preamp which has only 2 locations to...

Hi all. I know there are some decals that can be found online to make a Jazz bass appear authentic. Here are the pics of the bass, and those are the best photos I can give you at the moment. There is no discernable "edge" to the writing, and if it was a decal/sticker you would think an edge...

Hey all. My Stingray Ray25ca (upgraded Nordstrand pickup and Johne East pre) has an incredibly nasty buzz when the lights are on in any location in my house, or garage, or granny unit out back. The buzz gets worse when I touch any metal on the body of the bass. My USA Stingray plugs into those...

Just curious how many have had to ask the drummer to play at lower volumes at some point in your journey? Did it go well in all circumstances? Will they use Hot Rod sticks when needed? Yes, we as bass players know the importance of playing to match the needs of the venue when it comes to...

OK, wanted some "black" strings so gave the $50 LaBella Deep Talkin Tapes a try and the B string is absolutely terrible, super muddy and floppy, unusable. Anyone have suggestions on "black" strings for a 5'er? I know the DR Black Beauties are an option but some say they are really low tension...

Want to put "black" tuning machines on my budget Sterling Stingray 25ca, but Schaller or Hipsot will be around $200. Just curios if anyone has tried the Wilkinson brand, specifically in black? I purchased super cheap black tuners once, a set of 5 for $25, and they were absolute garbage...

Title says it all. Anyone have suggestions for a set of "black" flats or tapes in a 5 string? And this bass is tuned to Eb for one of the cover bands I sub, so not sure if it would just be a floppy mess with flats.

I have a "near new" Squier Classic Vibe 70's Jazz bass 5 string, with upgraded Audere Jazz 4 band preamp that has not been installed yet. Also have 2 pickguards, the white pearloid currently on the bass and a black pearloid. I am the original owner, and it plays/sounds great, even without the...

Hi all. Just curious how many songs a "regular gigging" band should have in their repertoire to play repeat "3 hour" shows/venues throughout the year, and the average song is 3 minutes long. I know this will vary from group-to-group, and depends on the music. Thanks

It seems like everyone does this, but is it officially legal to host a Cover bands "gig videos" on YouTube, not for the purpose of monetization from YouTube or other official sources? I am talking about a "weekend warrior" type band that gigs consistently, but has zero intention to make money...

Yeah, I just can't get over how good this guy is, especially for his age. Seems like he can play the best and hardest pieces from all the Greats, and do it better. I am sure there are plenty of haters out there, for a variety of reasons (probably jealousy;)). Feel free to drop in a link to any...

Just wanted to share, really enjoying this new band. Not technical/difficult music at all, just fun 80's and 90's rock. Be well
