    Line 6 Relay G-50 Review/Question

    Hi, Tried out a G50 system yesterday with my American Vintage P-Bass and Markbass CMD121. When compared to a standard 10' cable (Yorkville, in case anyone's wondering), I noticed a negligible loss of extreme high frequencies, and a more noticeable but tolerable loss of extreme lows...

    For sale EBMM Stingray 4H, Natural/Rosewood

    Here's a 2008 Ernie Ball MusicMan Stingray 4H in immaculate condition. I purchased it new in August of 2008. Beautiful bass! Either it's a 1-piece ash body, or it's the most perfectly indistinguishable bookmatching I've ever seen. Low action, great neck, nice growl...sounds and plays like a...

    SWR Spellbinder™ Blue

    Played one of these amps today - I'm returning my Markbass Mini CMD 121P and buying the Spellbinder Blue Combo. The tone is nice and creamy but very clear and balanced also. The compressor and "Aural Enhancer" are nice touches. I use the Diamond Bass Compressor and a BBE Sonic Stomp on my...

    Victoria Bassman clone (45410)

    Oh, I'm already playing a Markbass rig. I just want one :P In all seriousness, I play guitar as well, and I'll probably buy it anyway for that sake. I'm just curious as to what they sound like with a bass.

    Victoria Bassman clone (45410)

    I actually love the old Bassman 410 combos for bass, when going for a vintage sound. Of course, it is most well-known as a killer guitar amp, but I've got to say, I really dig the bass sound as well. I've had a chance to play several vintage units, but I haven't found anyone willing to sell...

    DR Sunbeams are amazing!

    Just put a set of Sunbeam Nickels on my J and WOW! Brilliant strings...loads of fundamental, rich overtones, all in a pretty traditional sounding string. I recommend. R

    Dimarzio pickup club

    I'm in! I just bought a Fender MIA Jazz with a pair of Model J's in it. I'm a huge fan of the bridge pickup, but not so much of the neck. I'm using the Audere pre in this baby, and the bridge pickup sound brilliant, but the neck is a little hollow sounding, so I'm actually putting a Model P in...

    Routing template/replacement pickguards for a jazz body with a P/J setup

    I've read in various places on TB that it's possible to do a rectangular route that either a P pickup or a J pickup can fit in. I'm not experienced in woodworking at all, so I really have no idea where to start.

    Routing template/replacement pickguards for a jazz body with a P/J setup

    Hi all, I'm converting one of my Fender J's into a P/J and I would like to do a universal route (in case I change my mind later :p) Does anyone have a route template (it's a modern jazz body, so contemporary pickup spacing) or know where I can get a replacement pick guard to fit...

    I have one of these Power Basses and it's stellar. The mag pickups are very vintagey, and the neck feels great! I've had my neck satin-finished and put it on an '08 American Std. body and I have a fantastic bass. The neck from the 08 is a fretless which I put on the Deluxe Power body, so now I...

    Double Bass Why is a frog called a ... frog???

    A plausible theory is that it is derived from the Latin root "furca" meaning "fork" or literally a physical division.

    removing neck to adjust truss rod

    It's a good idea to swear under your breath at Leo Fender throughout the process of removing the neck and adjusting the relief.

    Anyone notice Fenders being really neck/headstock heavy?

    Yep Get a strap that holds its position better. Far as i can tell, the only solution.
