When I first started playing Bass guitar, I purchased a "Fender"/Squire starter thing. A Squire MII J bass and a tiny Fender practice amp. While I've used the tiny Fender amp for playing live in a small club setting set to max volume, and been able to stay at a good volume and breakthrough the...

I've seen the 70s EB-3s, and I saw the pickup placement is different, however I've never heard one. How does the sound differ. Are there any classic rock tunes that have 70s EB-3s on them?

I just heard about this new company Chowny, they're a UK company with a MIC Semi-Hollow 31' bass. I don't think it's out yet, but if it is what do you guys think of it. Or what about new companies, I know I'm very happy to see new companies making basses around the world. Especially through...

I want to eventually replace a MII Squier affinity J of mine, that I'm keeping at my high school band room, and I didn't want to go overboard and figured I could get a good MIM J bass, used for around $500. However I'm a HUGE Led Zeppelin and John Paul Jones is my favorite bassist (and the best...

I just had a very weird idea a Bass VI in Octaves like a 12 string guitar. I don't play bass VI or an octave'd bass, but I think they're both interesting and creative instruments, so why not combine them? I know it's not particularly brilliant but I'm bored while waiting to finish out paying for...

I know I'm going to be looking for an 8 string bass in about a year or two, I have the money but just bought a 4 string so I figure I shouldn't les G.A.S take control. I though about the Rogue 8 string but used ones are going for around $400 and I could get a used Shector for a little more...

I've been looking for 8 string bass options under $400, which is I know is wishful. I could get one of those Rogue basses, but I've also been looking at Warmoth however, I know I'm not qualified to put in the electronics, or anything like that. So I figured buy a loaded body and replace the...

As someone whom only this week has seen this is Spinal tap (not my fault I'm 15), I was wondering if anyone had heard or had any idea if BC rich was planning a "reissue". I know only 7(?) were made but they make a 12/6 guitar, for around $1000 so why not a similerly priced 8/4 bass? I just...

I just put a deposit on this Kramer 350B from Empire Guitars RI. I think it's awesome, even though it has a little fret wear, but after 38+ years of playing you'd expect that. It's actually pretty versatile, just by rolling the tone nob from 7 to 3 you go from a classic rock tone to a blues...

I have some questions about the Kramer DMZ 4000 (passive) and the 350B. I played both and I was wondering if you guys thought the 350B's single pick-up could pull off some versatile tones or not, I didn't really hear that but I was more focused on other basses. About the 4000, I liked some of...
