    The Official Gallien Krueger 400RB picture thread/fanclub

    I picked one up last week, looks to be a series ii with green leds and an iec. I’m a big fan, but it currently has loud a dog and fiancé startling pop on startup that may be a deal breaker. Any thoughts? Filter caps don’t look all explody.

    Fixing a Hole in a 74’ P Bass

    No worries, I see what your saying. May have been an aggressive pick or something that chipped it in the first place.

    Fixing a Hole in a 74’ P Bass

    It could be, but the previous owner would’ve had to have had a chisel for a thumbnail which seems possible.

    Fixing a Hole in a 74’ P Bass

    I’ve had this bass for about 10 years now and have always been annoyed with this hole that someone carved into the top for a thumb rest. I’m thinking of filling it and touching it up with some amber shellac to try and match the surrounding finish. Mostly looking for pointers and advice on how to...

    Gallien Krueger Club. GK Rules !

    This 400RB arrived on my doorstep from GC’s used site! So far works great, besides a few missing gray caps. Sounds excellent with my 70’s P Bass strung with GHS Boomers through a Faital loaded TL-606.

    New Hampshire Bassists Club

    Can any of you guys suggest a good luthier to look at the neck of my 74' Precision? The truss rod is maxed out and I would rather have someone competent look at it than just mess with it myself. Thanks, Brendan Brendan

    From Henniker here! I study with Don Williams at the Concord Community Music School. The Music Mill is a great store and I usually order strings from juststrings, I should have a set coming in the afternoon. I bought my 75' Precision from Daddy's back in June and haven't put it down since.

    Daddy's Junky Music closing all stores

    I bought a 74' P Bass from the Manchester store last July. I have always had a good experience with them, they were always very helpful and involved with their customers.

    Phil Lesh's Early SG Bass?

    It also looks like the Bi-sonics themselves have been modded, don't they usually have black covers between the chrome? And it also looks like he is using one of Alembics external power supplies in the third pic.

    James Jamerson on a maple neck?

    I have flats on my 74 P with a maple board, I never noticed it making a difference vs. flats on a rosewood board.

    Borders closing its doors

    There seems to be a ton of used book stores thriving here and a few good indie stores selling both used and new. I haven't been into a Border's in a long time when I can get the same book for pretty much the same price from the indie store or even used somewhere else.

    Ok, thanks. I really like this amp so I was just wondering if there was any way it could sound better. It sounds great already, so no worries.

    Fender Bassman TV Question

    I've had a TV 12 for a few months now and I really like the tone I'm getting with a P-Bass, but I was wondering would replacing the 12AX7 with a nicer tube help the sound or should I just keep the tube thats in there for now?

    Fender Bassman TV Series Amps

    I bought one right after christmas or so and have played it at a few gigs. I would definitely agree with that description, my only gripe is that it seems really heavy for how big it is. Even running cheap basses through it, its been dead quiet, I haven't looked to see what the pre-amp tube is...

    1957 Fender P on CL

    It seems sketchy to me. I would want that checked out by someone who knows what they are talking about first. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder or however that argument works.

    Upgrade Squier Affinity or buy Classic Vibe P?

    Yeah I could, I have $400 and the electronics are really starting to crap out in the Affinity for the past few months or so. I've read really good reviews on the Classic Vibe on here, it just seems like a nice step up were a Mexican Fender, it seems like its more just paying for the name on the...

    Upgrade Squier Affinity or buy Classic Vibe P?

    So I have had an Affinity P Bass for a year or so and have started playing fairly regularly, is it worth it to upgrade the pickups in the Affinity or just buy a new Classic Vibe Precision? I play through a Fender Bassman TV Twelve with flatwounds if thats any help.
