This is the G&L bass that never was. I have combined the G&L SB-1 split coil MFD pickup with the G&L L2000 preamp. The pickup was snagged on Mighty Mite, and I bought the preamp+harness from the G&L store a year or two ago. I replaced the pickup selector and series/parallel switch for a DPDT...

I'm going to be doing a video soon analyzing the price increases of these particular artist models. The data is pretty interesting. Before the big Feb 2026 increases, the pricing had been in line with inflation. An average of 32% increase in price for 2026 is pretty insane. The Mendel P went up...

Hi Everyone! I've been taking a break from the channel and have been reassessing some of my bass collection. I don't get a chance to play many of these, though I always work hard to maintain them and make sure they're setup well. Looking to sell a bunch of these basses. Prices are OBO and...

Hey everyone! Due to the new rules, this is now the one stop shop for all LowEndLobster bass videos. I generally post videos every Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday (and occasionally some extras). Keep an eye out here for the latest vids!

Hey everyone! I hope you are all doing well. I've recently purchased a Gretsch G2220 to review. I've heard nothing but great things about these little basses (aside from the tuners) and wanted to check one out and put it through its paces. I plugged it in for the first time the other day and to...

Hey everyone! Here's my latest video featuring a VERY strange, rare, and unique instrument- the RKS Symbass! I've seen only a few threads on here dating back to the mid-2000's, but very little information overall on these instruments. It appears that my video is the only one on youtube for this...

Hey everyone! I usually try and post my videos in a relevant thread, but there are no Line 6 Variax bass threads! So here's my in depth look at the Variax 700 bass, a relic from an overly digitized time. Let's take a look!

Can you power an EMG pickup with potatoes? Yes.

Hey all! I wanted to share my latest video, LobsterChat Ep. 5. The LobsterChat eps are a bit different from my regular bass reviews, and this is the first in person one! I sit down with Kilian, discuss his background, experiences, gear and technique. There's a lot to unpack here! Hope you all enjoy.

Hey everyone! I hope it's ok to post a new thread here. This week I'm dropping a daily videos (7 videos total) checking out 5 different jazz bass preamps from four different manufacturers - Lusithand, John East, Sadowsky, and Audere (two from them). I'll post all the videos here as they release...

Hey everyone! The turnout for Summer NAMM wasn't the biggest but there were some cool new basses as well as new guitar technology that is definitely worth checking out! Here's my video:

Hey all! I wanted to share my latest exciting Stingray mod project! This is Project DIY Darkray. I was intrigued by the concept of the new Music Man Darkray with the Darkglass Alpha/Omega circuit and two band preamp, and I started doing some digging to see if it was possible to at least emulate...

Selling a member of my Sabre collection (stumbled upon a third). Bass is in great shape and has a gorgeous flame to the neck. Comes with OHSC. Asking $1899+69 CONUS shipping. Will ship worldwide, but please reach out for a global shipping estimate.

Hey everyone! I wanted to share this vid and the end result cause I'm so impressed with the final product. My goal was to build a killer P bass using Fender replacement parts, including their new roasted maple necks. All parts were purchased by me, and total cost ranges from 900-1000 depending...

Hey all, Some of you may know that the SUB is one of my favorite modding platforms. I've done many videos (and many more coming) on various SUB mod projects over the past 8+ months, swapping in and out various pickup and preamp combos and owning multiple examples. One thing that has never been...

IT'S HERE! I've been waiting for this bass all my life. GEDDYZILLA! Here's my unbagging video. Just set this up after filming and it's a blast! Very excited to plug this into my Sansamp Geddy DI pedal :). I'll be doing another vid on this, don't you all worry :).

Hey all! You may remember my Ibanez RB-999 Bean bass that I recently scored. It'd been sitting on my rack since I got it. I took it out and realized that though the body was in great shape, the hardware could use some TLC. I decided to tear her down and restore the hardware :). The bass (on...

Hey all! I usually stick to the bass forum, but today I finished up my first video looking at strings. Not so much a review as a quick comparison and first impression. Enjoy!

Both of these showed up today. The ATK is a NOS 2016 ATK 810, and the one on the left is an RB999 "Bean bass" from the 80's. Very excited to mess around with both :)

Hey all! Here's my latest video. I get a lot of questions about the basses on my wall (specifically the FGN and Rocco), so I decided to make a quick video going over each of them :). Enjoy!

Just unpacked this beauty. Who remembers these?

What are some bigger bass brands you guys have never owned but have no good reason for doing so? I know there's plenty of brands out there to avoid due to quality, price, value, features, craftsmanship, etc... But what about brands that you've just not messed with for literally no good reason...

The one on the right just arrived today. I've had the reissue for a few months and absolutely love it, but have always wanted one of the originals. Had my chance and I took it. Very glad I did! I've always wanted one of these since I started playing bass in 2002ish. Going to do a 3 part video...

Hey all! Here's my latest video pitting the ESP Bunny Brunel sig up against a Lakland 55-02 Custom. Worked really hard on this one, hope you all enjoy it! :)

Grass roots beetle bass thing. I believe the brand is an overseas budget brand made by ESP (and manufactured in Korea). This one is from 1995 and it's practically flawless. Got this thing for CHEAP too. This is going to be a really fun modding project, not sure what direction I'm going to take...

Hey guys! Here's my latest review looking at the Epiphone Thunderbird Pro V. I've always like TBirds, but not a fan of this one. Anyways, hope you enjoy! Thanks for all the support :)

Hey all! Here's my latest review video looking at the Lakland 55-02. I hope you enjoy watching as much as I enjoyed making it! This was a lot of fun. Enjoy!

She's done, and the video is up! Still have to fine tune some things on the bass, but I'm really enjoying this thing! Info and impressions in the video. Enyoy!

Enjoy!

I had ordered an Eastwood EB-1 a couple of weeks ago and it finally arrived today. Was very excited to review this and do a head to head against the Gibson LP Jr. Tribute, but that joy was short lived. I noticed mile high action upon taking it out of the gig bag, and then I noticed the...

Hey guys, Since these basses are so new, I thought I'd share my latest review here. Enjoy and let me know what you think! Would love some feedback.

Hey all. Just purchased this for review. Recieved it about a month ago brand new. Just looking to make room for more stuff to review. Be sure to watch my video review below for more info on the bass. I may not have given it a great review, but you really can't find an 80's style headless 5...

However... What I got was a gem. A half printed angry beavers shirt... I'm not even mad.

Just got this in the mail today. This is going to be a fun one to review. It's an Edwards HEJ-100 by ESP. I know it's from the early 90's and is a signature model of a Japanese pop bassist Hitoki. Other than that, I got nothing. Does anyone have any more details on it?

We're skipping part 2 because I'm too frickin excited for this thing. I just got my EHB1005MS delivered! I just took it for a quick spin, and the factory setup and strings are quite solid! This thing sounds great, and the neck is a blast! It's also absolutely drop dead gorgeous. She's a keeper...

Fedex guy just dropped off this bad larry. Badly needs a setup (coming from across the country), but I'm very excited to try her out when she's primed and ready. UPS guy is dropping off two other suprises today... so stay.... TUNED! Get it? Hahahahah.... hahaha.. ha...

Hey guys! I've been playing for a while, own a plethora of basses, have owned a lot in the past, but have never ever had a genuine EBMM Stingray. The closest I've come was an OLP I had in college and a $250 SUB/Ray from Reverb that I didn't end up buying. Welp, I was browsing Reverb (bad idea...

Just bought an Epiphone Jack Casady Limited Edition.. I'm really pumped! My main bass is a crazy frankenjazz (search "Jazzborghini" and you'll find it)... and well long story short, my birthday is coming up so I decided to treat myself to a new bass. Initially I wanted to put together a P-bass...

So I've never been one for cheapo basses, but I've been gassing real hard for one of those Squier VM Mustangs with the maple boards. Found a 12% off coupon for guitar center, ordered it, and it should ship to the store sometime early next week! I'm curious to see how the bass will perform. I...

Hi all! I just picked up my newest bass, the Jazzborghini! The specs are the following: Neck- Status Graphite 4 String Jazz Neck w/ no dots Hipshot Ultralight Tuners Body- Warmoth Jazz Body (Alder) painted Lamborghini Arancio Atlas Delano Pickups with giant pole pieces Badass III Bridge...
