    SOLD G&L Kiloton 5 Andromeda (ebony board + quartersawn maple neck)

    The decision has sadly come. I’m (hopefully only temporarily) quitting bass playing. I’m off-loading all my bass equipment, including this beautiful G&L Kiloton 5 in Andromeda. It features an ebony fretboard and a quartersawn maple neck. This was configured by Jason Mendelson of Fret Nation and...

    SOLD Dingwall NG3 Black Forest Green (drop G ready)

    Weight - 8.08 lbs I really cannot believe I’m doing this but I’m putting this on the chopping block. A Dingwall NG3 in Black Forest Green.

    This is a Made in Korea 2010 Warwick Pro Series Corvette Std. It is not a RockBass. 2010 was the first year the production was moved from Germany to S. Korea.

    SOLD Line 6 POD Go

    Here is a lightweight alternative to the Helix line of effects processors– the Line 6 POD Go. It’s a fun little tool that I’ve exclusively used at home mainly for amp and cab sims for both guitar and bass. I’ve had my fun, but since I only ever use amp sims, cab sims, and overdrives I feel like...

    “Moving” from California to Oregon

    Hey there! Maybe someone here is better informed than the average Joe (aka me)– I recently relocated to Southern Oregon for work, and I’m renting a house. I still have an apartment in Northern California where my wife and daughter live. I stay in Oregon Monday-Friday and spend weekends in...

    No longer available Bare Knuckle Holy Diver 7 bridge

    Selling this bridge position BKP Holy Diver 7. This is for direct mount and not for use with humbucker rings. I have since sold all my guitars and now I’ve no use for this. The bobbins seem to have been sanded down to a matte finish by the previous owner. Looks good in my opinion. $105...

    EICH and Ordering from Europe…

    I’m very keen on the EICH 112XS-8 cab and it looks like I can snag a B-stock for under $600 from Thomann. Will I have to pay customs or what-have-you fees? I’m in Oregon. Also, for those that have and enjoy their EICH cabs, what’s the TB consensus? Planning to match it with a GK Legacy 500...

    Is this another recommendation thread?

    …yes, unfortunately. We can make this short and sweet- I recently moved to a house in small town Southern Oregon and I want an amp since I can actually play loud unlike in my Sacramento apartment. My budget caps at around $1500. I’m really interested in the GK Fusion S but the combo is a bit...

    Long time no see, TB. I’m once again in the market for a cheap combo and I stumbled upon this local listing. Guy knows nothing about it. Can anybody have a look and see if they recognize: I’ll add more photos if the guy ever decides to send me more. Thanks!

    SOLD FGN Mighty Jazz JMJ-ASH-M (quitting sale)

    Up for grabs is my FGN (Fujigen) Mighty Jazz JMJ-ASH-M Made in Japan bass. The JMJ designation means it is part of the J-Standard series. In FGN parlance it is Boundary Series > J-Standard Series > Expert Series (in premium succession). This weighs 8.6 lbs. I got this last week as an impulse...

    Fender Player Plus

    Saw some of these on Reverb by an Italian retail store, decided to Google it and apparently it leaked on the 21st of June. Looks like the main takeaways are a hi-mass bridge, new colors, noiseless pickups, and a PJ setup for the Precision. Something to “bridge the gap” between the Player Series...

    Anybody ever try to overhaul Sterling/SB14 electronics?

    Just curious how successful people have been trying to completely swap out the electronics + pickup on an EBMM Sterling or the SBMM SB14. I guess it wouldn’t make much sense on the USA model compared to the import version. I have a Sterling SB14 that I’ve been tempted to completely overhaul...

    SOLD Mono M80 Sleeve gigbag (local pickup)

    Selling my Mono M80 Sleeve gigbag in ash gray, as I find it too protective for how I use it. I’m the original owner, bought from Pitbull Audio in late March 2021. I don’t gig and this has never left the house, not even for a visit to the tech. I just use it as a glorified dust cover and I want...

    Wedgie vs Clayton Phat-Tone

    Trying to get more into pick playing, as both my Sterling and Precision are responding well to that manner of playing. I was a guitar player from 2011-2015 so I have some picks left still but I don’t fancy the regular plastic kind. Any reviews on these 2 brands? I’m looking for more of...

    Herrick Pickups

    Just discovered Herrick Pickups (UK) last night and was pleasantly surprised at their seemingly endless MM humbucker variety. Anybody here with testimonies on their Herrick-equipped basses? I was thinking this thread could be a resource for the brand.

    Gruv Gear Gigblade Edge

    Resources on this specific gigbag is scarce. I’m shopping for a gigbag for my Sterling SB14, as the Mono M80 Sleeve I have has too tight a clasp for a 3+1 headstock configuration. It detunes the G string significantly. It looks like the Gigblade Edge - the cheapest in the Gruv Gear lineup at...

    Who else makes a 3-coil MM humbucker?

    Who else aside from Seymour Duncan and [the discontinued] Nordstrand [MM4.3] makes a 3-coil Music Man humbucker? I tried the search function to no avail. I may potentially swap out the stock one on my Sterling SB14, too hot!

    Real Quick Survey! (Squier vs G&L Trib content)

    So before the weekend hits I’ve got the opportunity to add an entry-level, non-Jazz Bass bass to my arsenal. Currently torn between the Squier CV60 P, CV70 P, and the Tribute Kiloton. I’m considering the G&L because I can get a B-stock for $399 locally. The Squiers are of course $430 a pop...

    Bummed About My Sadowsky Blue Labels Dying

    The Sadowsky Blue Label SS strings have been my go-to for almost a year now, usurping my long-time favorites the DR Hi and Fat Beams. To me the Blue Labels physically felt smoother and sounded like DRs but with a compressor on. Unfortunately the A string on my set died 2 nights ago, reasons...

    SOLD Genzler Magellan 350

    Sad to sell a Genzler Magellan for the second time this year (first one was an 800) but my needs have changed once again. Don’t get me wrong, this is probably my absolute favorite clean amp and I will definitely get another one in the future when my needs for an amp+cab are back. For now though...

    SOLD 2 Fender Jazz Bass Pickguards - Tort and Black

    Tort pickguard: I got here a brand new, unused tort Fender pickguard for a Jazz. Picked this up last month but only got around to installing it last night, an attempt that failed because it doesn’t perfectly fit my Player Series Jazz Bass (see last photo– it was gonna bother me). Genuine Fender...

    Here we have a Darkglass Microtubes 500 V2 head, the most recent version from the Finnish company. I got this in January 2021 from Sweetwater and has served my silent practices (DI or headphones) well. I haven’t even connected this to a cab yet. This amp is basically a B3K + VMT + one-knob...

    Amos Heller and the New Taylor Swift Album

    I’m not sure just how many of you TB’ers actually listen to Taylor Swift’s catalog (I was about 15 when she hit her country peak) but... Amos’ bass work is once again incredible. I’m not talking mainstream pop Taylor Swift, but pre-2010 (2008 to be exact) when she recorded/performed with real...

    SOLD Fender Classic Series ‘70s Jazz Bass (70’s spacing) UPDATED PRICE

    SOLD Aguilar 4J-HC set

    Just got these today, an impulse buy from an eBay auction. I didn’t even get them in my bass. The stock pickups on my Classic Series ‘70s Jazz Bass are pretty dang good so I’m not interested in these Aggies anymore. Edit: no longer interested in trades. The two black leads on the neck pickup...

    SOLD MM humbucker from SBMM Ray24

    This is a MusicMan-style ceramic humbucker taken from a Sterling by MusicMan Ray24CA, aka Stingray Classic. Selling because I just sold the bass and I have no use for this. It is currently setup to be soldered in series (it’s still a mystery why SBMM decided to wire this up in series) but just...

    Active Pickups to Compensate for 7.25” Radius

    Might be an oddly specific query here but I’m considering either an EMG JX or JVX (leaning towards the JVX) as an upgrade on my Fender Classic Series 70’s Jazz that has a rounded 7.25” fretboard radius. Of course the stock pickups have flat a pole piece arrangement... My question is will...

    SOLD Spector NS Pulse 5 - Cinder Red 35” scale

    I am hesitantly putting up my Spector NS Pulse 5 for sale. A new project calls for a 4-string Jazz and I guess this Spector is next on the chopping block. I am the first owner, bought from Fret Nation in mid-January 2021. This is a light 7.98 lbs according to FN. Made in Korea. It’s dressed with...

    SOLD Genzler Magellan 800

    EDIT 2/11/21: back for sale! After having spent an entire weekend with this amp, I was able to dial in my sound and the best part (IMO) was actually hearing my Spector through this. This is a really good transparent amplifier. That being said, I just want the bells and whistles of the new...
