    New Fender Dimension

    Thought I would show off my new bass, different. Criticism's welcome. I don't mind. Never post here but am doing so today. Mainly because my previously posted modified Fender Precision kinda embarrasses me (I use it in shows). That's my Squier next to it.

    Been away

    A few years ago I watched the threads here, this is my sunroom with my 1969 Fender Precision, moses neck, badass bridge and hot aguilar pickups. Also a fender modern jazz 5 string made in the same factory as Squier's. I just bought a new set of D'Addario flexsteel strings for the modern jazz...

    New Zoom B3

    Hello, Just purchased this Zoom B3 and it works nicer than my Roland Micro Cube Bass as a stereo preamp. My issue with most stereo setups is background noise, in this instance I have my SWR Baby Blue II head and Acoustic Control Model 126 Combo. The SWR has always introduced a hum into the...

    Anyone using Roland Micro Cube as a Preamp?

    The RX Cube that uses battery's is good for stereo sound into my SWR WM12 and WM15. There is no background noise and the controls are simple to use. Just thought I would mention it. Some other guy took the RX cube apart and just uses the amp portion for a pre into power amps. This is all used...

    Squier Precision 5 Pro Tone

    Thought I would share this...was in GC here in Madison the other day exchanging a Monster Cable under warranty and saw this for $139.99. Hardly a scratch and needed only new strings and neck adjustment. Body is made of ash wood. This is a nice bass, a real nice bass. As some of TB'rs might...

    SWR Workingman's Bias control tip

    I would like to help out all SWR Workingman's 12 and 15 combo owners with a tech tip. I own both models and noticed my 15 was running way too hot compared to my WM12. After looking around the web I found that there is an internal bias trim pot to balance some transistors. After a visit to...

    Having fun with Hog 30

    Swapped a speaker in my Pignose using a Neo 8" from Madisound (on sale <$20). Big improvement, I have had this combo since around 1997 and changed battery's once (battery's plus store). http://www.madisound.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=8991 Notice I had to cut a notch in the...

    Liking my new Acoustic B200

    I like this combo, the amp is set up for series speaker wiring allowing me to hook up two external 8 ohm speakers (they are patched in Parallel to get 4 ohms) and get an 8 ohm total load with the internal 4 ohm speaker. I can plug in my Yamaha TRB5 and get a great sound w/ my trb controls set...

    DI out to instrument input

    I have a question about my SWR SM-400s DI out...How do I convert the signal so that it will be able to plug into the instrument input of my Kustom Challenger bass combo. At present my setup consists of an SWR Baby Blue head with a 1/4 inch line output jack to the challenger. Works and sounds...

    Aerodyne Jazz - Badass II discontinued

    Hello, Has anybody, anyone at all fitted a bridge w/o hassle that was not a badass II on a Fender Aerodyne. A bridge that does'nt require modifying my bass. The Badass is gone for good as far as I know and I don't need to waste time or too much money looking for one used or NOS. Thanks...

    Franken P Bass

    I'm going to jump in the deep end of the pool here w/ a short opinion of my Fender: Serial # says 1969, original neck said 1971. I bought it not because it was a good price (it was) but because I owned a 1973 when I was in High school then. A lot of people have given me flack for putting a...

    Double Bass Clean power

    Hello, I noticed the other day when experimenting with my Line 6 studio 110 that when powered by a 12 volt jumpstarter using a 100 watt inverter the sound was cleaner. So, being the spendthrift I am I went out and used my 10% coupon at GC and got a monster Pro 1000 power center. Yep, with...

    Double Bass Yamaha BBT500-110

    For what it's worth, I just picked up one of these for a blow out price of $499 from musiciansfriend. Only issue out of the box was Slap setting doesn't like really active electric basses. It gives off a bad line noise with my fender deluxe. Otherwise this is a friggin loud amp, I plan on using...
