Hey team, Bought this second hand Fender Rumble 25 just to have around the house whenever I want to practice a bit and been playing it for a week or two now without any issues. Went on a holiday for 5 days, came back turned the amp on and I hear this noise that almost sounds like a detuned...

Hi people, I just got myself a second hand Hagstrom Viking Bass and it's got one knob missing. I've tried to look for replacement knobs (originals) but not much out there from Hagstrom. They are pretty much top hats but without the tone and volume writing on them. Does anyone know where I can...

Hi there, I know I go by that jazzbassguy but have recently bought myself a Peavey Milestone BXP Precision Bass (second hand) for £90 ($110) in really good condition and I've been considering maybe doing a few modifications to it as a first project of mine. Was thinking of changing the pickups...

I've encountered a very cheap bargain to potentially get a GK Backline 115 amp but I don't know much about this amp. I've read mixed reviews on it about some people not having a good experience with it others like it Any thoughts? Thanks!

I'm not even sure if it's a thing but I've been trying to look into some doo wop vocal groups from the 50's and 60's such as The Cleftones, The Monotones, The Silhouettes, Dion Dimuci and so on... Does anyone know the kind of gear that was sort of "standard" back in those days for these kind of...

Hi all, I was.just wondering, I've recently restrung my jazz bass with DR Sunbeams and it seems like the E string keeps popping / slipping a bit from the nut every time I play it. Now when I got the bass (second hand) it wasn't doing that so not sure whether it's something to do with the...

Hi all, I've been going through an instruction book by Sebastien Jean called Solo for Bass guitar: Adaptation of Baroque and Classical works for electric bass and I was wondering if anyone else has any experience in playing classical music for the bass (electric) and what is your set up? Any...

Hey good people, I have recently bought myself a Sire V3 Jazz Bass and as obsessed as I am with the way it looks and sounds, I'm always keen on changing my pickguards now and then. The only problem is I don't see a lot of of them available for the Sire basses like they do for fenders. I'm not...

Hi there, I have recently bought a second hand squier Fretless bass and the previous seller had roundwounds on it and it seemed to have marked the entire fretboard. I bought it cheap (£145) so I didn't really mind it and it doesn't seem to be impacting the playing at all. First thing I did is...

Hi there, Does anyone know much about the Washburn Vulture basses? I've seen one and says it's from the 80's but other than that any opinions on whether it's a decent bass or not worth it? Thanks!

Hi I was just watching The Beatles documentary and was wondering if the strings on Paul's Hofner is what looks to be Black Nylon? Or is it just regular flatwounds? Anyone know which brand he played those days? Thanks!

I've been obsessing over every record this great bass player has laid his grooves on. Most recently a couple of Solomon Burke's albums and From Elvis in Memphis. I love everything about the bass tone on these recordings as well as of course, the playing. It's a shame there's not a lot of tabs...

Hi there, I was watching SNL and Young Thug came on, and although this is not my style of music at all, I was drawn by the fender bass his bass player was playing. It seems like a Fiesta Red 1950's precision bass? Looks also like the reissues that squier has put out but I can't seem to find...
