I know this thread is kinda old but I just got this bass back, it was my first bass , other than the ones I borrowed to learn to play. My dad bought it for me in 1976 , I sold it in 1978 to purchase a brand new Ibanez musician bass. A couple of weeks ago the guy I sold it to came to my work and...

Yes, I still have the originals on it. I disassembled the one that was giving problems and now it is better. I still want to replace them eventually.

Sorry it has taken so long but since I was called out on the gig pics I guess late is better than never. This was a pre 4th outdoor gig .

Hey Abner, I've been on the Schaller website, I found the M4 90's to fit the 12m hole , but the " buttons " are butt ugly. The M4 lights look a lot like the factory Ibanez ...but ...they are for a 14m hole. I guess I will see if they will mix and match, if not I will just live with it .

I guess I set myself up for that , so I will have to produce .

I had the house to myself last night so I was able to crank up the volume. I had forgotten what a great tone these basses have . I don't know if its the mahogany/ ash body or the big single coil or a combination of both but the only other bass I have that sounds this good is my spector Euro4...

Thanks a ton Alex, that's what I needed to know. I ordered a set of gotoh tuners but they were for 9/16" hole and too big for the hole so I returned them. I sure wasn't gonna ream the hole out on a vintage neck through bass. Thanks again.

Correction , they look just like Gotoh GB7 tuners , so I may have just answered my on question. Gonna have to measure the hole in the headstock before I place the order.

Does anyone have a part # for replacement tuners . Mine are acting a little funky , in a bad way . I would like some that would be a direct fit . Mine is the 1978 passive 4 string. They look like grovers with a single screw .

I can't comment on this amps dependability since I just got it , but it impressed me and everyone in the band this past weekend. I play in a loud 3 piece and this amp never broke a sweat and I was playing too loud on purpose just to see what it could do. I've had a lot of rigs , not combos, I'm...

I made that same statement to the tech at Carvin , he assured me that had been taken care of . But , they were also trying to sell it to me so I'll take that with a grain of salt. I've never owned a Carvin product until I got a brx10.2 cab. I liked it so I bought a second one. When I started...

Thanks ,and yes they are 4ohm . My Gbe 750 that I've been using also has a 2ohm switch .

Good to hear that about the sliders, and yes , got the bag free and free shipping. That was the icing on the cake that made me pull the trigger .

My Bx500 arrived yesterday, I only got to play about 20 minutes on my lunch break, through one BRX10.2. I am not used to an amp this light , it feels like its made out of nothing. However, it does have some ass sound wise . I set it up flat at first, then with the low mids at 100hz and low mid...

Ok , good luck on the local

It should be here tomorrow , if you are willing to ship yours , amp only that is , I have cabs , we might can make a deal . I have 10 days to ship mine back . Just let me know if you want to sell just the head and the price.

My bx500 has already shipped, wish I had known.

I have a few 12ax7's at home ,not sure what brand. I think a couple are GT's and maybe a Fender or 2. Might give'm a try. I can't leave anything alone anyway.

Thanks , I really wanted the mono-block B1000 but it with the bag was $514.00. I just couldn't pass on the deal for the BX500. I will always have the Genz with me if I need it , I just wont be lugging it in unless I have to.

I was looking to lighten up my rig and needed a backup , soooo just placed an order for the BX500 with the free bag and free shipping. $319.00 to my door. I'll be running it thru two brx10.2 cabs in 2ohm mode. Hope I'm not disappointed . Been using a Genz GBE750 for the last several years ...

Thanks Tbird , I found the brighter strings are better for this bird, I have a genz gbe750, I normally run everything at 12.00 with my other basses. This bass seems heavy in the mids, almost honky sounding, is that common for these? I've only played it in my practice room so it's all nil till I...

You guys are gonna have to stop posting pics of those Gibbys. This club has cost me enough already . The white epi classic will take it's maiden gig voyage this weekend. I was having a hard time finding a tone I liked, so I removed the d'addario nickel's ,put on a set of roto 66 ss, big...

I agree with Nocturnal , Why rag anyone about their choice of anything. I don't care what you play , drive, ride, or wear . Live and let live as long as its not coming out of my pocket. I like variety , that's why I have different basses , I get tired of playing the same bass every gig. On the...

HI all , just got my white epi classic replacement for the one that was broken in shipment . I was able to play it for a few minutes on my lunch break . It came very well set up , nice medium low action , didn't get to mess with it very long but it sounded very deep and smooth , almost too...

Yea Tbird , the heaviest one they have in stock is 10lbs, btw ,the lace always makes me itch.

Hmmmmm, The outer box looked good, the inner Epiphone box did look like it had been dropped on the end. As long as I get a good bass in the end I really don't care. I guess I'm a trusting kinda guy.

Let me say that Sweetwater is great , great communication and follow through after my order and no questions asked when I told them about the damage. This has all been taken care of in less than an hour, with an actual phone call from the sales tech I bought from. This is my first purchase from...

Well my white epi classic was waiting on me when I arrived home today at lunch, I'm like great ,if I install the strap locks , change the strings I can use it tomorrow night. Unpacked it and noticed the strings were loose ,flipped it over and the headstock was almost cracked off . Such a shame...

Well , I just pulled the trigger on a white Epi classic , Thanks Mark for the info . Sweetwater just dropped the price to 429.99 with free shipping so I just had to do it . I called to make sure they were not blems or refurbs , the sales rep said epiphone was going to discontinue , I'm...

Hey Ljvsk, that one is already in my watch list .

Hey Twil , my jazz bass has a slim neck close to my epi pro IV . It is a 92 jazz plus so it also has a smaller body than a regular J-bass. Food for thought. I also have a question for our resident bird expert . Mark, I was reading your review on your white Burny bird you got back in 2012...

I just put a set of roto 66 ,105-45 on my spector euro4, wow, that bass is too lively for those . It has the solid maple body . I might try to swap them to my bird and see how they sound . I am a fan of rotosounds but its the first time I put them on that bass. I have d'addarios on the bird now...

Hey Hillerup , I knew someone would mention the cars . The entrance was behind us so we parked our cars behind the stage to keep people from watching and not entering , we were facing the lake so lots of people arrived by boat . I pulled the equipment trailer to the gig so our drummer was able...

Here are the gig pics as promised , nothing exciting but here they are , N.E. Georgia outdoor gig in August , can you say 96 degrees and humidity to match. BTW im the guy with the 2 chins.

I have a few gig pics I will post as soon as I get them from the camara.

I did my first gig with the Epi T-bird Pro Saturday , first gig with any kind of bird for that matter. I must admit I was very skeptical when I first got it ,but I am happy to say I am now a fan of this bird . My son made the comment " cant believe you have all these nice basses and your...

Yes thanks, I have 2 sets roto 66 ordered ,should be here monday or tuesday, I have set of D'addario XL's I might throw on for the weekend gigs.
