    Headless Club???

    I have a lefty B2AV but I’m in Japan so that’s about $120 for freight. It’s been converted to passive due to some damage incurred around where the controls were. Have pics if interested

    Gibson Tobias Growler V (after a few months)

    Facing the same neck dive issue with my lefty 5, which I’m sure will be discontinued shortly if not already. Love everything else about it though and was a dream bass of mine since the 90’s but no 5 string lefty growlers produced back then so you can imagine my excitement and now disappointment...

    Active/passive switch installation mod

    I did a search but came up dry so my question is: is it possible to install a toggle switch on some of my active basses to default to passive mode in the event of battery or wiring failure? I have a Hohner BV headless with this factory set-up and when active mode failed in rehearsal I was still...

    combo amps vs seperate amps and cabiets

    If you can find one, get a Genz Benz Shuttle 3.0 with the 8" or 10" speaker, or 6.0/6.2 with the 12" speaker, Ibanez Promethean 300/500 watt 10" or other such designs, best of both worlds with the removable head and add-a-cab facility. Don't know why more companies don't make this combo design.

    NBD - TUNE Japan

    The original 1980's-early 90's Japanese Tune Bass Maniac 5s had 16.5-17mm spacing, I have a lefty one so that's what you need to fish for. They come up on Yahoo auctions sometimes as there are a few older Japanese ones still around

    Ibanez Ergonomic Headless Bass (EHB) club

    My brand new EHBMS5L truss rod nut was already burred/stripped when I tried to adjust the neck with the hex/Allen key so has anybody else had this QC problem with these basses? It's on its way back to the retailer for 'repair'; very disappointing

    Multi Scale/Fanned Fret Basses

    Hi all, Just wanted to know your experiences on how easy or not it is to get used to a new multi scale/fanned fret bass and also to switch back and forth between regular and fanned fret basses? As a lefty we don’t get to try this option but an Ibanez opportunity has come up so… your thoughts...

    Nemesis (Eden) NSP 212

    I found the bottom end fat, warm and clear. The 410 is 4 ohms and the 210 combo, which I also had wired up to use as a cab only for using a different head with, 8 ohms but plenty for a smaller sized venue. 410 would cut through 1000 seater venues via DI to PA but we were always through the PA...

    Nemesis (Eden) NSP 212

    Had a 210 combo & a 410 cab, same size as that 212, gigged them both for around 10 years, never had a problem. Still have the 410 in storage back home but would happily gig it out again.

    Fretless Side Dots

    I bought a lefty 5 string unlined fretless Warwick wenge neck when Dana B were offloading their inventory and the neck had only top dots but on the actual fret positions in the usual places so I had a luthier put top mini lines on all the other note positions and it’s basically the same as a...

    Gold Tone MicroBass Talk

    Hi all I have the Les Paul style ME fretless micro bass and want to get flat wound strings, not the rubber ones, as the current roundwounds it came with are very brittle, thin and ugly sounding so your recommendations please. Thanks very much,

    Steinberger Club

    Could the extra 1/4" length be dealt with by using a headpiece adaptor, which would artificially 'stretch' the usable length to compensate? With some types, you'd have to cut the ball off as it won't thread through the hole but the older type just uses a grub screw and string tension to hold it...

    So you want to buy a lefty XP2 & string it righty or buy a righty XP2 & string it lefty? 4 string shouldn't be a problem, looking at my lefty strung XZ25L & even the 5 string looks doable, maybe with just a little filing of the headpiece. Original steinys, not spirits, actually had measured...

    Comment by 'gleneg61' on the classified ad 'PRICE DROP: Genz-Benz Shuttle 3.0 10t Combo $450 shipped CONUS'

    I think that gear sac is for the 8" speaker combo, I have one for my 10" combo & it fits fine. amp attached & all, also have the 8" combo. If I wasn't living in Japan, I'd snatch it up quick smart for a backup just because. GLWTS

    Should a left handed person learn to play right handed bass?

    I'm a natural righty who has played lefty (lefty strung) from the get go, just felt more natural to me when I started on guitar & had my stronger, more dexterous hand to form the chord shapes, left hand could more easily sort through picking & rhythm patterns. I've always likened it to pianists...
