My 1/4 inch hex truss rod wrench from StewMac came in and worked perfectly. Thanks everyone for the great suggestions!

Great! Thanks! :)

Hi friends, My Taylor / Klein ABG has a weird truss rod adjuster, and none of my socket wrenches can fit in the tiny-tight space that it resides (see photo). Any and all helpful advice on what tool to buy at my local hardware store (or a direct link to where it is on Amazon) to be able to...

Edwin Livingston at USC.

As long as they are not intentionally trying to mess with me, I'm comfortable with just about any comping style (including playing a bass line under my solo or complete silence).

+1 for SS!

I forgot about that RB 6 prototype that RB shows off in that video. I wish THAT had made it to market...

I exclusively played one that looked like yours for a few years throughout the 2000's. It's a great, bullet-proof bass. RB and Bill Lawrence knew their stuff!

I've no problems with either the URB or EBG Hercules stands I've owned for many, many years. Great, solid gear.

The 18th and Vine district in KC is amazing, and the museum is top notch. Go Monarchs!

+1 for iRealPro. I use it almost daily for practice, and it has a large, searchable user base of many genres, tunes, et al.

Great album! Interesting that it was recorded for Atlantic Records since it sounds more like an ECM outing with ECM cats.

I dig the Herbie sticker on the side of the conga. Great tune!

I grew up hearing it in the Wichita Symphony (as an audience member, not a player), it fills up a room nicely. I just saw it at @Greg Clinkingbeard 's shop up in KC several months ago. It needs to get played!

Is there a coil-tap option, or something like it, that would enable a more single-coil sound from this bass with the same PU configuration? Maybe on the NYC custom models? I love how they look, Roger and his teams in NYC and Germany do amazing work.

I've never heard of sales staff doing this, was it to protect the finish?

My Nashville music store experience, 30+ years ago, was great. I was barely out of my teens, and walk into a store (Rock Block was the name, maybe?) and see a wall of basses I'd only seen in issues of Bass Player magazine (Spector, Alembic, Modulus, Fodera, et al). The nice guy behind the...

I'm stealing this and making it my signature.

Amazing technique....so smooth how he goes in and out of thumb position. He's going to be in town next week with Erskine on drums, going to try and catch it if I'm not working.

Amazing stuff, and great story! Thanks for sharing! I've never heard of this Jaco Photo Book that was released. Was it only released in Japan? I'd love to get a copy...

Funny stuff! Surprised they played The Simpson's theme instead of the Seinfeld lick.

Mr. Jones and I, Lakland Open House in 2005. I got to tell him that my first jazz record that I bought was Miles Davis' "Decoy", he responded: "Funny, that's the first jazz album I played on". Amazing player.

Happy Birthday Maestro Kasper!!!

+1 on the iRealApp. I use it nearly everyday, incredible practice tool.

Nicely done! I bet Willis would appreciate it, himself being a DIY guy.

Looks like Joey Lauricella from Fodera trying out a Trickfish amp.

Great video. I've always been a huge MK fan. That store looks pretty amazing, as well. Next time I'm in central UK.....

CK is great. Back in the early days of the internet, you could email her and she'd send out a packet of stuff containing a cassette tape of instructional material, a laundry list of every session that she played on, and a guitar pick with her name on it. I lost the guitar pick, but years later...

Coming up on 24 years for me (April 2001). I wonder how many members TB had back then, it feels like the numbers have really exploded since then.

The Blue Matter band back in the 80's is one thing that drove me to keep playing and learning in the 80's. Grainger and Chambers are amazing together. I guess they grew up together in Baltimore?

Yikes. This KS winter storm stuff this past week has made driving here a bit stressful. I got a flat a few days ago and changing that in this cold isn't fun. Be safe out there!

MTD, please. Also, any Skjold and F Basses you see in the wild (it doesn't appear either have booths this year...).

Sorry to hear this. Makes me think of the time when I bought a new WW from Walter back in '92. I called him up and reported to him that it was sounding "scratchy", and he generously walked me through a cleaning process that involved a screwdriver, dental pick, and an hour of his time walking...

Condolences, Jason. My heart goes out to you... I'm a big Squarepusher fan myself. I love electronic music....it's like the last, actual "Wild West" of music with all the different sounds and ways to produce them. There's some truly amazing stuff out there. IMO, of course.
