Hello. Used to hang out here a LOT. Left when the whole thing got re-done, couldn't adapt. Gonna try again, I guess. Where did *Off-Topic* go?

I have searched TB and the webs but haven't seen my issue addressed: I'm wanting to replace the wimpy little tuners on a Chinese-made Squier Jazz neck w/the larger, cloverleaf units. The new(to this bass- they're used but in decent condition)tuners have the typical Fender 11/16" bushings, so...

A friend tipped me to this stuff as an allergy fighter- prior to the obligatory google search, I ask all of TB: What are your thoughts/experiences?

I just snagged a nice CS-9 chorus(thanks, fitz420:D)& right away noticed what appears to be a pair of trim pots- inside the battery compartment. I searched but found nothing on these here or the 'nets, and thought I'd ask before tweaking them and effing up the tone. :)

Kvetching here as doing so elsewhere will hurt a butt or two. FB movies make me hurl. Well, the one I watched did, and it was a good friend- but Im pretty sure any other will have the same effect. Making my own might fill me w/a strange desire to bury myself. Also, the ice-skating Olympic...

My 14-yr-old son wants to record basic band-type stuff(bass, gtrs, keys, drums, vox)w/his laptop- a Samsung w/Audacity. The local music store has the Omega USB interface for $150- I have very limited experience w/OLD-school multitracking, effectively no knowledge of computer-based recording and...

Did the music for the original *Italian Job* Didn't know his stuff went back that far- must study

Funeral for a friend at 11, 50th birthday party for one of my favorite drummers tonight- so, mixed feelings... Best part of today so far: Figured out the song(bassline mostly)stuck in my head was *The crooked beat* Enjoy life :)

Rant These *bitstrips* cartoons plaguing FB(yeah, hats what I get for being there- like a 12-yr-old girl, I guess..)are just awful. Not awful and funny ala Southpark, but more pure awful. Anyway, I don't dare kvetch over there as many of my actual friends are busy posting this stuff. #whyIdrink

At a friend's place, HUNDREDS of miles from home. Roadtrip/vacay... middle of the night, I am spewing from both ends. Trying not to wake anyone... thinking food poisoning.

Chorizo & egg, SUPER, w/EVERYTHING plus red sauce inside. So good I nearly wish I was hungover(they soothe a hangover so nicely..). Just wanted to share(NOT literally). :D

Specifically, help me find good online how-tos. Also, not exactly a shed, but a pump house- to shelter a pool filter/pump, etc. Actual experiences are welcome too- I've done a bit of construction- a redwood deck w/roof, LOTS of cabinet & interior stuff- so Im familiar w/the basics. I'll measure...

Got a couple few of these plastic thingies- a SWEET EM-5, a DL-5 & FL-5. The Echo Machine is nice- thinks its analog, oscillates easily. The Digital Delay is not bad but nowhere near as analog-esque as the EM-5. The Flanger is interesting, nothing I can't live without. They all have internal...

Growing up in the US in the 70's, it seemed every other suburban/nuclear family had one of these: 3-4 feet high, round, clay smoker/grill/BBQ- folks called them *Hibachis* (I'm guessing incorrectly)but searching that term shows the little box-type units.. What are the big things called? Yo...

As a bass player/bassist/musician, I mean. I'm shooting for *pretty funky for an old white guy*

Searched, newest result was from 2011. Had a Ritter, loved it but it's getting beat-up. One zipper quit and a few seams are going... Would like to keep it under $50, will not be touring. Needs to house a Jazz V.

I don't mean a phobia, but rather a strong dislike for something that is not necessarily painful, unhealthy or otherwise detrimental in one way or the other; just something that you just can't be in the same room with. My youngest daughter likes to crunch ice- I know this can be dangerous for...

HOW does dude get this insane tone? I know it's 99% him, but I'm wondering what the whole setup consists of. I liked the studio cut of this tune, but this is crazy:

...about the muscleman ads. If the ads' subject has anything to do w/what we as TBers are looking at(between basses for metal and telling people search), then I say we are NOT browsing for t-shirts & leggings like we should. That is all.

Good morning, highly esteemed ones. Forgive my slabbist feet muddying the sacred halls of TB DB. I have accepted a last-minute fill-in gig- jazz standards, most of which I have heard and love but never learned. I have the keyboardist's charts and a fake/real book or two but wanted to develop a...

I am convinced that, in the right venue, in the perfectly-drunken moment, it could be legend-spawiningly awesome. Or catastrophically career-ending, or both. Probably both.

Kinda like the age-old *single effects vs multis* question- which way do you lean? I have a Stambaugh 6 that was meant as a Swiss Army bass: active/passive, wide-spaced for slapability, chambered for guitar-esque upper register... I love the bass but also have a few *1 1/2 trick...

Stuck in rehearsal, listening as others learn the songs...

You kids might think getting old sucks. Well, it does- it really does- but it has it's benefits. Here are a few pleasant activities for you to look forward to... 1. Making it to the bathroom in time 2. Knowing it(getting old and crusty)happens to most everyone 3. Not caring on a much greater...

Playing a birthday party for a local art teacher- I had him in 7-8th grade(thousands of years ago). VV Art Gallery, 7-9

Link Removed I know it's a variety of Ibanez Musician(Studio model?). I may flip it as it's heavy & I don't need a second fretted four- but it sounds SWEET Edit: Pardon the quickie phone pic- will do better tomorrow or tonight Edit#2: Appears to be an ST-924

Oh esteemed pedal addicts- can any of you direct me to a clear example of both a digital and analog octave effect- ideally under $100- for comparison? I've fiddled w/a couple but haven't hit my ideal. Recordings and/or pedal samples would be great- thank you! :cool:

I put a bass and amp up FS on Craigslist- got a couple of scammers on the bass, but after renewing, nothing. Suggestions?

I just told the BL of a covers band I wasn't into it for $50 on a weeknight. Think he might have some BH over it.

Under $50- around $20 if there's anything remotely useable at that level. Just loud enough for background noise is fine.

19th Anniversary day trip. Antique/music/bike/whatever shops, cafes we shouldn't miss- what can you suggest?:)

Our computer is old and packed FULL of crepe to the point I can't get any pictures into it(from cam or phone)to move into Picasa, to eBay a couple items. I am a complete moron in this area and will pass any suggestions onto my IT guy(wife:rolleyes:)... So- short of a new computer, what, if...

Bought this recently to assemble my dream single-speed; LOVED it for climbing & flats, prefer my old, SUPER-slack steering hardtail on downhills, which is the only reason I go up the damn hill. :D Pro(Mendon Cyclesmith)rebuild on Headshok fork, I replaced the air seals in the rear shock. I will...

Trying to sell my MTB on CL; I've done this before but it's been awhile... not sure if I have the right contact info in the ad. I'm pretty pleased w/myself as I grokked getting a link to pics... anyway, do I post my actual email or is that genuinely stupid?

Link Removed This is a lil feral dude where I work- notice the tiny white moustache- kinda like Nostrils' markings in opposite: Link Removed

I may regret sharing this *secret*, but those cheapass-lookin, plastic, looks-like-it-came-in-a-box-of-breakfast-cereal Ibanez Soundtank stompboxes are IME pretty cool. I snagged an EM-5 Echo Machine(delay)for next to nothing, later got an FL-5 flanger and just got a DL-5 Digital Delay. The...

One of them sexy, shiny BLACK ones. Olympic-stylee: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

I searched and found one closed thread consisting mostly of a heated debate over whether chiropractic or acupuncture was worse, so PLEASE only reply if you have firsthand knowledge or experience- thank you. I have been suffering w/a neuroma, a pinched nerve in the ball of the...

-and it's about 1000 degrees out there. 13yr old son, daughters 10 & 7... they wanna go door-to-door in the immediate neighborhood. Call me a big old wuss but do they HAVE to do this right flaming now? Ima drag them off to Target w/an offer of new sponges & stuff- the old crap is falling apart...

I've had this happen once or twice, but this time around it's very annoying; I'm trying to subscribe to an ad- can't, AND I can't even PM the guy to let him know I'm interested. I also don't want to post publicly and draw attention to an item I'm wanting all to myself. :ninja: Borderline...
