Actually, this does not work because we need more thickness behind the truss rod and the neck is already shaped. Doing this would leave a bump in the middle of the neck.

Thanks to the suggestions, I managed to salvage the neck ! Here is what I did : glue back the piece that broke glue another piece of wood on top I tried to carve the neck again from here but could not get a good profile make some wood past with saw dust and wood glue to fill the sides of the...

I don't see how a brass nut would help here. A brass nut is the part that places the strings on the fingerboard for me, but it can also be, well, a brass nut, the friend of a bolt, which kind of make sens, but I don't see how I should put one of those on the truss rod at this point.

@Gilmourisgod There was 1/16". I removed the piece of wood and measured its thickness with a caliper. And this is roaster maple that appear weaker than the regular maple. I will try to glue it back, and we will see. As @Jeff Siddall said, I have nothing to lose at this point.

So, I was a little too much concentrated on the shape of the neck and ended up with not enough wood below the truss rod. Wood started to crack as soon as I turn the rod... Guess I will have to do a new neck now...

Yeah, I should have reduced the size maybe. You can zoom in and see all my mistakes.

I added a small audio clip to the attachment.

Thanks ! Even the free hand pickup routing ?

Hi there, I just wanted to show off my new creation, a bass made from old floor wood I found in the basement of my house, from the original owner. I started this project for practice so, no picture were taken during the build. Body and neck are made with 50 years old hard floor wood (maple or...

Neck dive was the first thing I noticed, he is moving the bass around and does not seem comfortable playing it. Nice bass with nice sound though !

That page contain a lot of usefull informations about speaker impedance : Loudspeaker Impedance : This is the most important : a loudspeakers impedance is everything but consistent across its frequency range

Is it still available?

Invalid Link Removed is also the one that was recommended to me.

I ended up buying it, and it has a lot of low. I would say that the head is powerfull enough for rehearsal if your drummer is not too loud . It is a very simple head with two power tubes and one preamp tube, no fan. The transformer is noisy!!? Maybe because the ground was cut on the plug...

Thanks jastacey. I'm looking for something to try tube amp to know if I want get one (bigger) for band situation. From the Traynor website : Replacing the YSR-1, the YRM-1''s electronic design was more closely related to the Bass Master''s hence it was more versatile - thanks also to the...

I have the opportunity to buy a Traynor YRM-1 which is close to the YBA-1. Price is correct(not exeptionnal) so I could wait and buy the YBA-1 instead. What would you guys do? My main concern is : will the power supply be able to push the low? Anyone has/tried both? Thanks.

It probably depend on how loud your band is, I am in a rock/blues band and I wouldn't get -9dB filter. Thoses guitars are too loud despite the not to heavy drummer (the quietest I had). Those filter would do for a Jazz band probably. If you plan to buy multiple filters, go for it!

Maybe it is just a commercial argument and custom fitted ear plug are good forever?? As a side note, I have -15dB and I am planning to buy -25 dB filter, I wouldn't recommand -9dB for a musician.

I was told that those custom fitted ear plug are good from 2-3 years and need to be replaced after.

That one went for a nice price!

+1 don't worry about it being hot, it was made this way, no need for an added fan. I even removed the fan that was in my SWR SM400S and I was playing in a metal band with a loud drummer.

I have a swr sm400s, I paid 400US$ for it but both side are working. Have fun with it.

or don't ask him to pay you if you cover a gig for him and the gig get canceled.

+1 I have a five string and I downtuned it to match with the guitar, Some riffs are (almost) unplayable in BEADG despite the note are available.

+1 Guitar Pro will do what you want easily, if you don't want to pay for it, you can use TuxGuitar which is a clone. http://www.guitar-pro.com/en/index.php http://tuxguitar.herac.com.ar/

I'm glad to see there are other talkbass people using linux for music. On my side I am using jack, ardour, hydrogen and jackrack on ubuntu 9.04. I modified my install to make it work properly with jack in real-time but I recommend to everyone not familiar with linux to start with ubuntu...

Last time I check to send one of my bass from Canada to the US, the price given by Fedex included import taxes. Also when I received my cabs from the US (to Canada), everything was payed to Fedex prior to shipping.

The only thing that come to my mind is a les paul bass. That's problably not what you are looking for.

Well, ok you're right for Kill 'm All in that case. :smug: I cannont pronouce for Ride The Lightning and Master Of Puppets. We sure can't hear the bass in ...And Justice For All, and then, well, I don't care.

Are you sure you already listen to the early albums? Like Kill 'm All and so? Maybe you should try again.

As far as I remember, in the standard specs, the scale is 860mm which is 33.8 inch and the body is maple, alder and maple. I have a vigier passion III 5 string and I can only recommend vigier bass. They are lightweight and well balanced. Good luck for your sale!

This is not so bad, who want a 900CA$ squier? http://montreal.en.craigslist.ca/msg/1418952149.html

Ok, here you got the big story : I had mine this summer from a Montreal music composer who ended up not playing it that much. He let it a couple of month on craiglist at an appealing price and nobody but me contacted him. Despite I bought a Tacoma a few month ago I ended up buying that one...

I had a couple of pm about this bass asking model and all. The bass was made by la lutherie MF in Montreal. This is a custom made instrument that I had from the original owner. For the sound clips, you can listen to Alain Caron Conversation album in wich he use a 6 string acoustic fretless...

Those mf acoustic bass are so sweet :D
