Learn how to and set it up yourself. You will never again have to ask if it needs one. Its not rocket science my bud.

Hearing changes over time, and tinnitus is a factor also. (I am patiently waiting for someone clever to design and offer EQ and gain controls for my ever-present tinnitus.)

It all gets back to "Wine. Women and Song". You can't miss.

Just combos for me. 5 of various sizes. Fortunately I play with pianists. No guitar.

Exceptionally great pups by the way.

I bought a Kawai digital piano (ES920) that was a demo from Sweetwater. Good discount. Full warrantys from SW as well as Kawai. Great instrument.

My Squier Vintage Modified Precision is probably 30 years old? Sounds, looks, plays perfectly and gets a lot of gig work! I paid $100 used (mint). Great friggen work horse bass.

Walnut.

He will always be too loud. Find new musicians. You will grow beyond this.

A great deal on an nstrument with potential, either a a great player or something that can be easily turned around for a small profit.

Yes heat and sun can affect your neck relief. Enough sun can make the finish look crappy. I'd take a beater and keep to the shade.

Hell no.

From extensive experience I can tell you, your Squier Precision will be well improved by a perfect setup, medium gauge round wound strings and a pickup upgrade. The Seymour Duncan SPB-1 is a good choice, the Fender Original ('62) noticeably even better, in terms of tone, response to your touch...

We are devoid of guitarists thankfully, so volume is well controlled and balanced among piano, bass, drums, horns and voices. I'm spoiled.

Listening to and attempting to play piano. Aging is another ongoing obsession which I devote a lot of time to.

Is there a particular genre where the Hipshot is most useful?

Yes Sir. These suggested above.

Bossa Nova... this ain't!

Squiers can play very well, but that color does not appeal to me at all. And poplar body?

Choir, clarinet, guitar, bass and intermediate piano.

You are the curator of a desireable classic Ampeg amp. Do not modify it.

Once bolted on properly, it will be fine.

Buisness as usual. Who needs high art?

Thank you for your explanation. IMHO the metronome can be slowed painfully slow even at a speed that music notation can be mentally processed helping to define measures and rhythmic subdivisions as they go by. I guess the best advice is "whatever can get you there" is the best approach.

Ditch the metronome for practice? But why? I have found it to be a valuable tool.

Play traditional jazz. Network with jazz players. Consume the Real Books. A rude awakening and a deep dive into high art! That has been my route with no regrets!

Now that is gorgeous!!!! Almost too beautiful to touch.

Isn't it clear to all? The Fender "Imprecise" will be marketed toward Precision users and enjoy dominance in the bass world for the subsequent 60 years only to be replaced again by the classic Precision.

I strongly suggest Rumble 40 or Rum 100.

Bought mine used but mint. Unsure of date of manufacture. I swapped in Fender Original '62 pickups. Looks, responds and sounds very satisfying! Good luck to the original poster with yours!

Soon as slap begins, I'm gone. This is not going to end soon people.

Ray Brown.

Yes the Indonesian Squier CVs are right up to par as well! I have an Indonesian Vintage Modified (VM) Precision as well and it is spectacular. If you can grab one of these used, you will do well. In any event, I suggest, you get a Precision. Install your favorite strings, set it up well...

Dean Markley Blue Steel #2676 .050-.105 on my P's.

I've tried many. I get the most satisfying tone and response from Fender Original ('62) precision pups.

In my experiences, those that can READ music keep a more accurate internal clock.

I installed an Eminence basslite 2012 in my Rumble 100 v3. resulting in clear tight more satisfying bass tone to my ears.

I use the Yamaha MG10. I highly recommend it.

If you are receiving NPR, that is a plus.

Listen to Jim Fielder on the first Blood Sweat and Tears album with Al Cooper. Jims bass lines were syncopated, articulate and clear not boomy. Good recording engineer?
