It seems like threads about the SVT-100 only pop up every 5 years or so, figured I would post one since I just bought one today! Traded a SLM-era BSE410H cabinet + $300 for it. VERY happy with it so far! Nuts and Bolts: There seems to be extremely little information about these online, at...

Personal context: I absolutely love basses (and really any instrument) that has some quirkiness to it, even at the expense of effectiveness, ergonomics, efficiency, etc. Along these lines I particularly love basses that have mechanical muting devices installed, specifically the Gibson-style...

Not sure if anyone east of the Mississippi has seen the following message on Sweetwater: But when ordering some gear recently to be shipped here to Denver, I thought to myself, "Sweet, Phoenix is only like 12 hours by car, shipping times are gonna be really quick now!" But then in tracking my...

Does anyone happen to know the neck-pocket dimensions of the new Squier Paranormal Rascal HH/Squier Bass VI (assuming they're milled the same)? I'm thinking through the idea of picking one up, finding a long-scale neck that will fit, and shifting the bridge back to make it a 34" scale bass.

Model in question: G-PROR-4U-19 Does anyone know the dimensions of the rubber feet on the bottom of the case? That is, how far they are from each other, and the edges of the case? Context: I have an older SKB molded rack-case that houses my power-amp and a furman power unit. I play it...

Upgraded to an SVT-410hlf a few weeks ago and after about a half-dozen gigs with it, wanted to share my thoughts on it. Current rig as played: Ampeg SGT-DI going into a QSC GX5 power-amp, pushing the SVT-410hlf. Tone-wise I go for a vintage Ampeg tone; think Allen Woody but with a bit less...

I'm looking to add a 1U sliding rack tray/shelf to my rig. Specifically one with ventilation holes/slots so that I can use some velcro ties and keep all of my amp-related cables inside the rack case itself. Everything on Sweetwater or from music-related brands are stupid expensive... I'm...

Long story short, my bass amp gave up the ghost last night, and since I would always bypass the preamp and just use the power section (driven by a VT Bass and more recently an Ampeg SGT-DI), I figured I would just get a rackmount power amp. I'm currently looking at the QSC GX5. I'm drawn to...

Clearing up some space on my pedal board to make way for some upgrades, and decided to part ways with my MarkBass Super Synth pedal. Pedal comes with power supply, but no box/manual/USB cable; I bought it used w/o those included, so I just don't have them. Pedal is in VG+ condition, with very...

I recently picked up one of the limited trans-violet 55-02 deluxe basses that Lakland did for Sweetwater. I'm having a bit of an issue with fretted notes going in-and-out of tune... I know the instrument came PLEK'd, but I did double check the setup (relief, p/u and string height, and...

Haven't posted on here in a LONG time, but just had to share... Anyone who follows Lakland on facebook probably saw this bad boy posted this morning: Lakland is doing a limited run of these 55-02Ds for Sweetwater, and I couldn't resist. Got one reserved. Now it just needs to get here! My...

I'm getting ready to move from Charleston SC (100% humidity all day er'day...) to Denver CO, where there's considerably less humidity. I'm fully expecting some fretboard shrinkage, but what should I do to prepare my basses for the long drive out west? Loosen the truss rods and strings...

It's always magical when a bass you regrettably sold finds its way back to you... I sold this bass a few years ago to help pay for another bass, and regretted it from day 1. Earlier this year I messaged the guy who bought it (on another site) asking if he still had it and was interested in...

I know this isn't the most uncommon of injuries for a bass, but I need some help in terms of how to handle this. Long story short, I have a '78 Ibanez lawsuit P that was shipped to me, headstock is cracked but not separated. It's definitely on it's way to being completely torn off, and I can...

http://soundcloud.com/fro_tone/fromance Finally getting around to some recording. Not complete or polished in the playing, but a good sketch of the song thus far. The drums are just a loop for now until I hammer out what I want. I'm also going to add in some organ work and extend a few parts.

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] This guy claims to have a 1970 P-bass, all original except for the pickups. Some idiot threw in some EMGs... First of all, the wood looks like Alder to me, not much of a pronounced grain to it. Didn't Fender reserve natural finishes for basses made of Ash...

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Really cool (and long, close to an hour) interview with Mike Gordon. Not really the typical interview questions, seems more geared towards his collaborative experiences.

I was fiddling around with my Lakland hollowbody late last night, just playing it acoustically. I really really enjoy the sound I get just coming out of the f-hole and it got me thinking... Has anyone ever mic'd their hollowbody bass? Either bypassing the electronics altogether or maybe...

After years of being a member of bands that were close to, but not quite the kind of music I really want to play... I'm finally starting to put together a project to further develop, and hopefully record/perform some material I've been writing on and off for the past few years. It's stuff that...

Got my new MXR M288 Bass Octave Deluxe the other day and had some time to play around with it, figured I'd give y'all my first impressions of it. It's a whole different world from the Micro POG that I've been using for the past 2 years or so. I'll try and give my impressions thus far, but there...

For Sale/Trade, EHX Micro POG. Condition is great, but shows use. Has some velcro on the back, but that can be removed if you wish. For trade I'm really only interested in an MXR Bass Octave Deluxe. Otherwise, price is $130 shipped to the CONUS. Paypal only please.

Thinking about selling my Sabine RT-7100 rackmount tuner since I'm trying to lighten my rack-load. Link Removed Few scratches and a ding from rack-mounting (not sure where the ding came from) but perfectly functional. Capable of flat-tuning, alternate frequency calibration, strobe...

Anyone know of a 12volt AC cable that can be used with a power supply like the T-Rex Fuel Tank to power 12v pedals like the Wiggler? Has the weird split-tip: I know a possible solution is to get like a Voodoo 2+ and just use the AC jack on the back for the wart... but if I can, I'd...

Already posted in the Lakland thread, but figured I'd share with the rest of the group :) Got a Lakland Skyline Hollowbody equipped with Chi-Sonic pickups. This thing is great, plays incredibly easy. Sound is absolutely wonderful. VERY warm but retains clarity amazingly well...

We're competing for a spot on the main-stage at the St. Patrick's Day festivities in 5 Points, Columbia SC. For the "contest" we've been told we absolutely have to use backline equipment provided. So I asked what that consisted of and was told the bass amp will be a Yorkville DB400. I've...

For sale is a Boss SYB-3 Bass Synthesizer, precursor to the SYB-5. Pedal is in used but very good, working condition. Has velcro on the bottom, little bit of tarnish around the ins/outs, but never had any issues with it. $80 obo shipped to the CONUS. I can get some pics if you want, but...

Got my EHX Wiggler in yesterday, figured I'd post a little bit of a review. Clips will come in a few days, just haven't really had a chance to get any lately. First off, anyone who owns any of the tube-based EHX pedals knows... these things are HUGE and built like tanks. And upon plugging in...

Winter NAMM starts this week. Who is going? What are you looking forward to the most? And most importantly, POST PICS WHEN YOU GET EM!

I see old busted 810s floating around pretty often. Wondering how hard it would be to rework it into a 215?

I'm a big fan of the EHX Wiggler vibrato/tremolo pedal, I think it can cop a rotating speaker sound pretty well (at least at a better price point than a few other options). However, I don't really like it's set-and-forget nature, particularly with the rate knob. How difficult would it be to...

No... No it is not. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

For sale is my 2006/2007 Salomon Forecast 159cm snowboard. I am the original owner and the board is used but in great condition. It has been professionally tuned and maintained the entire time I've owned it. I can also have it tuned/waxed any way you want it upon purchase. The Forecast is an...

Not committed to selling it just yet... but putting out a feeler for my 1978 Ibanez Silver Series P-bass. This is one of the infamous "Lawsuit" era basses. The previous owner cut the pickguard into two pieces, essentially creating a control-plate. I kind of like the way it...

I'm getting a little concerned... We're playing at a private party at a summer camp. That sound familiar to anyone else?

Does anyone make use of the expression input on their Enigma? I'm wanting to give it a try, except I find it incredibly impractical that there isn't any kind of switch to turn the expression mode on or off. It just seems like once it's plugged in, you're stuck in that mode until you unplug it...

Has the wattage of the 3-Pro been bumped up in the past? I saw a posting on a local craigslist for an Ampeg head rated at 300w but with a tube pre. No pictures, no further explanation. I can't really think of what else it could be than a 3-Pro... Any ideas?

My old band is on indefinite hiatus, and regardless of the reasons we decided to put things on hold/end them, I still find myself enjoying the music we made. Anyone else have similar experiences? Anyway, here's the site for anyone who wants to listen: Link Removed In my opinion, the live...

*BOTH HAVE BEEN SOLD* Ordered these parts about 6 months ago for a project that just never came together. Both the bridge and the tuners are in NEW condition. I never installed either of them. Both come with all mounting hardware. Both are chrome finish. I'm not 100% sure of the actual...

I'm looking to unload my Micro Q-tron since I recently bought an Enigma. Pedal has been gigged but is in excellent condition. The XO line stuff really is built like a tank. I'll take some pictures this evening when I get home from work, just wanted to post this while I'm thinking about it...
