    What was your very first bass guitar?

    Hamer Slammer p bass. Candy apple red with a mother of pearl pickguard. Im hoping to add a first gen cruise bass to the collection one day to come full circle.

    What little time I have spent with it, I definitely end up using the low mid EQ to boost the bass and cut the bass knob, like you did.

    It sounds great! I'd say pretty neutral, but a very usable EQ section. I'd have to try it with other cabs to get the full scope of its range.

    After years of looking, I finally got the micro amp. This little gem was a quick 45 minute drive and included the 115 cabinet. Still not sure about the cabinet, it definitely has a unique sound being sealed with no horn. But, for $200 for the pair, I just couldn't pass it up.

    Who's Making A Rack Mounted, Lightweight Bass Amp?

    Trickfish Bullhead .5. I had two other class d amps prior that were tiny. I like that it's a full size chasis, but only weighs 5 lbs.

    Wiring Jazz Pups as Humbucker sanity check

    I know some people will solder the grounds together and have 1 lead coming out the other end. Make sure to use shrink wrap to cover the joint, so you won't have any funky grounding issues.

    Fender Suhr-era 90's (1996) American Deluxe Basses

    Here is the 1997 5 string version. I don't know what Fender called this finish. It's transparent blue/green. 100% stock. I sold it a few years back to fund a Carvin build. I loved the tone, but the B string always sounded dead.

    I have an All-Parts bass neck that I would like to change the shape of to look like the older ESP style. I was hoping to find a template that I could lay over the top, but after a long internet search, I come up empty. It looks like the bottom rounded section is just cut off. But I really don't...

    Going passive on a Fender American Deluxe JB

    I have a 2000 deluxe jazz. I actual wired in a passive switch, but part of the circuit is still effecting the tone negatively. A passive tone control would help, I'm sure. I ended up replacing the pickups with Fender custom shop 60s. This opened the tone up quite a bit. I highly recommend this...

    Pulling The Trigger (Fender Jazz Debate)

    I have owned several different jazz basses, and I picked up the Adam Clayton at a music shop not even knowing who he was. I regret not buying it, just no need for another jazz bass. But that bass really stood out to me, and would be my choice of the 3. The neck on the Geddy Lee is very thin...

    G&L L-1500 pickup replacement

    It was great! I preferred it over the stock one. It was much less intrusive and let the tone of the pickup shine. I did end up putting the stock preamp back in and sold the bass. I just wasn't using it much.

    G&L L-1500 pickup replacement

    I decided on replacing the preamp instead. I'm going to order a nordstrand 2b. I think a standard 2 band with boost and cut will help me achieve what I'm after.

    G&L L-1500 pickup replacement

    Thank you for replying. I read through the mod quickly and it looks to effect the high end. My issue with the tone is the bass eq not being low enough. It seems to boost the low mids more than the bass frequencies.

    G&L L-1500 pickup replacement

    I got an L1500 on a trade and I love the feel and look of it, but the tone not so much. Even with the bass and treble eqs boosting, the mids never go away. Looking to change the pickup and maybe the electronics. I'm not too worried about resale as this model isn't the most sought after. Knowing...

    So, does Fender make a decent 34" scale 5-string?

    I too have gone through a couple Fender 5 string basses and was disappointed with how the notes on the B string always sounded dead compared to the other 4. Buy a Carvin/Kiesel. I have a PJ 5 that was built to my specs and still 2/3 the price of a new Fender. I also have a TRB 5 that is 35"...
