Howdy Y’all and Happy Holiday Seasons Mic for group rough recordings broke. We used to use a blue yeti podcasting mic (because it worked) It’s uses were; recording the whole group as a rough draft to remember the desired sound for revisiting at later sessions. Recording individual parts...

New bass day. I like it a lot. Any questions or concerns feel free to say.

I recently saw a listing for $499 for this bass on GC. I bought it for under $200 years ago. If this is the price now I would like to trade it in toward a new Yamaha TRBX 305. What would you ask for the price on the SR406 for trade in? Condition would be great not excellent. (Small dings)

Title says it all. Ibanez SR406. The bridge is a diecast 6 string. Not sure exact brand as I’ve never removed it. (Stock Circa 2001.) About to have the bass serviced soon. Bridge replacement would be cool with options around $100 if anyone wants to chip in their 2 cents. Otherwise it should be...

Howdy. I play 6 string bass. While reading I came across the fact that a lot of baritone guitar is similiar tuning to 6 string bass. I change my lowest string on the bass to a B for BEADGB tuning which makes some chords easier to play for me. Which I believe is a tuning for baritone guitar? If...

Here’s the jist. Wanna tune it to AEADGB, and play chugs up top for rhythm sections and melodies on the bottom half. I have darkglass electronics gear. I currently play an Ibanez SR406, have been playing the bass with a pick and tucking it for chords on the bottom strings along with fingerstyle...

As the title says. Josh Gilbert, current spirit box bassist and former as I lay dying bassist, has been spotted with one during the korn/gojira tour. Photos attached. Possible dingwall style clone with 1 less pickup for half the price? Their 5 strings on their site are listed at $1k and some...

Just grabbed the dark glass alpha omicron pedal. What are your preferred settings or pet peeves about it? So far I like the growl and bite active, level almost cranked, blend 3/4, drive cranked, and the mod I’m just still not sure. Maybe right in the middle or a pinch to either side I just...

Howdy, here’s the link to GC [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] The questions revolves around the “thumb rest” Is that like a towel hook that someone threw on there? Or is this a thumb rest I simply have yet to encounter?

Oldest daughter is getting the mini strat for bday in August. Will be buying used as it’s infinitely cheaper than new. So I need an amp for her to start with. Looking for something that cannot get very loud as she will eventually crank it. And looking for presets that potentially have a “girly...

Intervals dropped that new album and I have been throwing some of Jacob Umanskys tabs into practice time. I don’t really use pics and prefer not to but for these riffs that’s what they use so “when in Rome”. I grabbed a large selection in preparation for this and think I might need something...

Amp just broke, need to have new one by tomorrow 5pm. Still need to practice with new amp. Basically local shop options in price range are a Boss Katana 110W and a Fender Rumble 100W. Could return either after the gig if they don’t suit I’m just in a pinch right now. Looking for loudness here...

Howdy, Ibanez SR 406 SR406 Some buzz on the 8th fret across all strings, not really any on the 7th or 9th. Bottom 2 strings go out of tune Id say every 2 weeks. Not “actually” out of tune to a different note, just enough to make me check and notice it’s almost halfway to the next note. I...

Hey all, hope your Mondays been better than awfully. Was playing smooth criminal on my lunch break ( yea I know the bass line on the og recording is a synth ) and it struck me that the pre-chorus is played very much like a djent riff. So it got me thinking, is Micheal Jackson djent?

Hello boys and girls, cats and squirrels. I was inquiring if anyone had some advice or input on a question of mine. I use a fender rumble 30 (don’t play anywhere too big) and I would like to get a head for it. Is it worth my time should I upgrade my amp? Or am I okay to work with that guy? As...

I do a lot of reading and not a lot of posting here, but I am also very active in the real world local community as well. I have noticed on here the love of the Low B from people in church bands and have even gotten the same reaction when able to talk to a church bassist when I am out and about...

Howdy everyone, it’s that time of the year again to bring the bass in for a tune up. Rocking an Ibanez SR406 and play everything from B ride metal to tool slaps too chords on the bottom strings. My tune up includes new strings of any kind I’d like. I am currently using the ernie ball long scale...

Hello Everyone, first post here I have been playing my Ibanez SR406 for my group in which we do a “dirty pop” / “metal R&B” type style. It helps a lot with giving the metal style with the low B but also lets me preform higher note scale slaps for the fills on the pop/r&b side. My dilemma is that...
