Hello. I just bought an Ibanez GSR205L, which uses the Ibanez B15 bass bridge. I was wondering if anyone has ever switched this bridge out for a High Mass style bridge. Nothing against the B15, I personally like the sustain of high mass bridges. Some people don't notice a difference, some do. I...
Hello. This is a club based around the basses made buy the Guitar Center/Musician's Friend house brand rogue. They're good basses in my opinion, some of the parts are garbage, but if your in the market for a mod bass or a cheap starter, they're okay. I own two. The VB100 LH violin bass, and the...
What's funny about this is that I owe the majority of my bass playing style and ability to that band and the lead guitar player, lets call him "Jimmy". I met Jimmy once when I was taking these classes. I knew of him but he was really the only person i knew so i started talking to him. He was...
So I have a problem. I bought this bass, a Dean Edge 09, and it's my first bass, and I love the way it sounds. But now, after playing better more expensive basses, It kinda sounds like garbage. Anyway I need more output. I'm already redoing the bridge, the volume, and the jack. Now changing the...
I'm not sure if these clubs are even in style anymore. I'm in a few that are active so I thought I'd try. I own a black lefty SUB Ray 4. The bass is probably the best bass i own(not my favorite tho, that goes to my dean). I'll post a pic later on. If you have one, get a pic and then you'll get...
I have a weak sounding bass that basically has no real middle ground. Either the bass sounds totally "bassy", or there is no bass at all. I was looking to get a more "middle of the road" sound without replacing the pickups or routing for actives. The bass has a passive soapbar btw.
Yes, I know there is a Dean Club. I am a member but I didn't get much of an answer. Yes, I know i could potentially measure the bass myself, but I don't see the bass much and it would be "inconvenient" to go and do this at least at the moment. Has anyone else did a pickup swap on this bass? This...
I have a left handed one ordered from amazon. It hasn't shipped yet but there was only two left in stock. Any thoughts on why the model has been discontinued? The reviews always seemed rather high?
What is this bass? She is a full scale solid body violin bass. Probably some asian lawsuit, but i'm looking to see if anyone has one remotely similar. If i can get my friend(a guitar player) to part with this, i may trade for it. But iv'e always wondered what exactly it is.
This has probably been asked before, but does anyone think it can be done? I have always loved they way violin basses look, but i play mostly rock and metal, and there are feedback concerns. I personally think the smaller neck might make chords and soloing better. And some say that the feedback...
I was wondering, who actually owns one of these, and what they do with them. I've seen them before, but I was wondering if buying one is worth it, or if it's only useful for covering back in the saddle by aerosmith, and spanked by Van Halen(technically that was a double neck, but one, you...
This is an older subject, but does anyone really like wolfgang as a bassist? To be honest, I believe they only fired Anthony as an excuse to hire Eddie's son. In my opinion, Anthony is better and always will be. I believe the stories that Eddie had to teach him how to play is a load of BS. But...
