    Ahh the old "hand grenade" thread. 100 messages in 20 years. Sounds like someone's troll sccount so don't expect a reply from OP. Anyway, Capitalism is the true American way, bruh.

    Double Bass Kolstein Legal issues

    Just came across this article on the The NY Post homepage which was published today so looks like the media is starting to run with this story. Hope it has a happy resolution for everyone. https://nypost.com/2025/04/05/us-news/long-island-music-store-allegedly-cheated-violin-owners-lawsuit/

    Snap again the Ernie ball Cobalt flat at tuning post.

    It sounds like that Matt Freeman is pissed about having flats on it.

    Stock the 2x would give you Bridge, B+N Parallel (jazz), B+N Series, Neck. The 3x you lose B+N series but gain B+M series aka the "Music Man" tone so depends how much you want that. Of the stuff you listed I'd throw RATM in that bucket but yeah Commerford played a jazz too. New prices are...

    Less than $150 during the holiday sale. I've paid more for pickups.

    Nice! Of course the "real TB" answer to your question is that Jaco only needed 2 pickups...same with this guy:

    I just think you have that magic touch man. I think I did see that one a while ago but as one of the "thread captains" when you speak people listen. (This definitely happened before, where you're like "check this baby out..." and it's gone lol) But i do agree people think 3 pickups when they...

    Gorgeous man, congrats! You might as well start selling the other basses as I do see them getting much play. The white/wenge combo always looks killer. Yup, so undesirable it's gone less than 8 hours later before I can take a look (i may have seen it earlier though)...probably because you...

    Thanks! You are very correct, it is definitely in need of some love and attention. A little truss rod tweak & adjustment to intonation would definitely help. I used to play the hell out of it and spacing was never an issue, but I found it a little tight for my liking lately. And I'm just always...

    Watching Jacob Umansky playing a fastlane only makes me realize it's been complete crickets for quite some time regarding his impending sig model. I realize the guys have been pretty busy lately and have dropped some surprises lately like the fastlane & Nashville models. They also probably...

    Best Sub $600 P Bass

    Unfortunately, I wouldn't call this a sub $600 bass anymore. Asking is usually close to American P prices for these nowadays.

    I'd gig the 4 & keep the 5 to play at home at least until you get rid of all the other basses or your physically unable to. That thing deserves to be played and not be wall art. I'm all over any one of your purple/ish ones if you do decide to downsize...and I have been thinking about getting a...

    10 cancellations in a week is really, really ridiculous. I'm feeling like if people want to play games on your website and cost you money they should automatically get put in the penalty box for the first 24 hours of the next drop. Like what did you morons think was going to happen when you...

    It actually made its way down to Florida already as well but if it makes you feel any better it's been freezing down here too...by which I mean it dipped into the 50s. Original date was Friday so arrived way faster than expected. Ive been tearing stuff apart so great timing. Thanks Mr. Sush!

    I need help choosing a 6 string bass! Yamaha, Dingwall, Ibanez?

    Have you played any other 6 strings before? Are you just making the jump from 4 to 6? Have you played any multiscales before? If no and you're jumping in blind chances are it won't be the last bass you buy either way. I'd go Dingwall but lots of folks dont like chords with fan frets so I'd...

    Multiscale stingray and bongo

    After the past few days I feel like they're already getting left behind now that even Sire & Harley Benton are getting in in the MS action. I really like the idea of a headless Sterling MS in the $1000-$1500 price range. Like the new headless Sire but better.

    Multiscale stingray and bongo

    Considering they already make the Kaizen...Tobin Abasi's multiscale guitar...it's probably just a matter of time. NAMM 2026 is my guess.
