    Ben Shepherd vs. Hiro Yamamoto

    I like em both, hard to pick. I do like Soundgarden's early punkish material more. Flower is the first SG bassline that comes to mind... I'd have to go with Hiro.. Plus, Circle of Power cracks me up every time...

    strings with red fabric on both ends

    Most likely Rotosounds. Although I like dead strings.. Never clean em.. Got gunk and grease and sweat all over.. And I use Flats.. Even deader.. But yeah.. Rotos probably. And you says Rotos only have silk on one end.. Mine have silk (Jazz 77s) on both ends? Even when I used Swing Bass they...

    String gauge help?

    I'm switching back to heavy strings and I looked and I was wondering if there was a cheap 55-75-95-115 set? If so can I have a link... I usually tune down a half a step and use fuzz frequently but for my clean sound I want a really deep bassy sound. :bassist:

    Peavey Fury...

    I have two questions regarding a 1989 Peavey Fury. 1. How close is it to sounding like a Fender P? What are the similarities? In your opinion which one do you prefer? 2. Where can I get a new pickguard for it? 3. Thats actually four questions. :D

    Wah pedal question

    I bought a Vox Wah yesterday for my bass. I also use a Big Muff Pi (the one for guitar). I like to use the pedals together but I use the fuzz more than the wah so when I push the pedal down on the Vox (the switch is under the pedal so I can't just switch it off) the Muff gets really quiet. Is...

    Why did you decide to play bass?

    I played the guitar for a couple years and I never got very good at it. One day I was listening to Orion from Master of Puppets and it was my first album on cassette when I was little. When the bass interlude kicked in I was blown away by how awesome it was. I kept replaying it over and over...
