brands

i know DR sells some but i kinda wanna see what other brands sell strings for 6-string basses

Hi, Hope I am allowed to post it in this catagory. I own 2 basses but looking to buy a 3rd one, but...I'm having a hard time finding what I want on Google. These are the specs I am looking for: J-bass, dark brown wood body (no burst, Walnut color), rosewood fingerboard with white block inlay...

I'm sure this may have been asked but I can't find the answer I'm looking for. I'm reading/watching video about how pbasses are favored for recording because they fit in the mix nicely. My question is for people that are recording does the studio/engineer/etc care about the brand of pbass?

In the long run I would like to know what brands out there that have just terrible resell value whether it be a good brand or not. The first thing that comes to mind is custom built basses, like my Carvin which simply won't sell. Mainly just trying to see what brands out there have really bad...

Interesting data here. I least I found it interesting to see what the top brands really are by sales. I was surprised by a lot of this. The Best-Selling Pedals of 2017 The Best-Selling Pedals of 2017

Hi. I am new to this site, so I'm not sure if this is the correct forum part to post this on. I have been playing the piano for the last seven years and the violin for the last five, so I have a musical background. I am interested in learning the double bass. I know that for beginners...

Hey fellow TBers! I am deciding between these 3 awesome jazz basses. Which do you prefer and why? Are they all as good as each other? Any info would be great this is just to get you guys chatting aswell! So.... which jazz bass out of... Fender, G&L or Atelier Z??? You guys know what to...

I was in my favorite guitar shop over the weekend and overheard the owner talking to a customer. This guy has been in the business for 50+ years, so I tend to believe what he says. Anyhow, he stated the "The top 4 brands in the guitar business -- Fender, Gibson, Taylor & (I think he said...

I love sx basses but is there maybe a bass that is like it around the same quality/price besides squire and epiphone

I'm looking for a decent entry-level double bass, primarily for bluegrass, and would appreciate general advice from this forum. I own a few fiddles (and mandolins and guitars), and know a bit about the differences between Violin-Shaped-Objects and decent student violins. But I know nothing about...

Mostly I've heard that it is necessary to match head and cab brands to get the most out of both with Mark Bass, but I've heard it concern g others occasionally as well. Opinions?

Background info- 50 yr old plywood German bass. Strings- Spirocore Mittel- been on for about a year. I play pizz only. Swing/jazz Amplified most of the time. The strings sound good except the G string sounds kind of dull compared to the others. My little finger swells up after every gig and the...

So I bought a SUB Ray 4 about 7 months ago, which I believe have stock strings of Ernie Ball nickels (45-65-80-100). I immediately replaced them with Elixir Super Lights (40-60-75-95) because those are what I used in my previous main bass, a 35-inch-scale BTB. I have played the SUB as my main...

How many of you feel that a rig Sounds better, Could sound better or Would sound better if both the Amp Head AND cabinet(s) were the same make? For instance, Mesa head/Mesa cabs, Trace Elliot head/Trace Elliot cabs, Gallien Krueger head/Gallien Krueger cabs etc., or Do you think it doesn't...

I'm currently in the process of conducting some final market research, prior to opening my Boutique bass shop. I've been working on this for about 2-3 years. I have partnerships in place with various shops throughout the Mile High willing to work with me and not against me - particularly with...

...sold on Aliexpress, Made-in-China or other online sellers. Some look good, prices are very low... anybody as one, tried one, any experience? I’m curious about those.

I have a Marshall IBS200 and Ampeg BSE115T, and was getting a weak E string from A down. I tried some settings like contour and the 5 band built in EQ and got some pretty good improvement towards what I call full bass. That smooth room filling overtone. But next I patched a 15 band equalizer in...

I have mentioned in other posts that I do not know bass brands as good as I know guitar brands. With me shopping around for a 5 string and wanting to get something besides a Fender (since I own 2 Fenders) I am not really sure what direction to go. I know I know pick them up and try them. But I...

I often see people on this board recommend that you "try before you buy", and while I agree with that in principle, can we just accept that, unless you're looking for a Fender/Squire/Ibanez/Whatever, it's nearly impossible to actually do that? There's a bunch of brands I'd love to try out: G&L...

As the title suggests, here's my stupid question: Is it possible to mix IEM senders and recievers from different brands as long as they use the same frequencies? Or more specific: Sender: Thomann's T.bone IEM200 series Receiver: Sennheiser EK 2000 series

Gonna keep this short and sweet. These are the brand finalists I really like. They all have fabulous basses in my price range, and I tried them all. Curious to see what you guys think! And yes, I purposefully left out Fender. Don't kill me (-: Cheers! Update: By the way I feel you guys are...

Was thinking of buying a new bass and this bass is selling for around $120 yet I just dont see what brand is it? Do you know what brand is it?. If you have any information it would be really helpful.

I have some questions about mixing cab and head brands: 1. Which heads by certain brands pair well with cabs of other brands? 2. How can I know? 3. Are differences significant enough that you should rather stay within the brand of the head? 4. Does it come down to speaker type? Like, does an...

I've worn 9 of the 10 brands of underwear. One is a lie. Guess which one. 1. Hanes 2. Calvin Klein 3. Ralph Lauren 4. Tommy John 5. Adidas 6. Jockey 7. Gildan 8. Fruit of the Loom 9. Joe Boxer 10. Tommy Hilfiger

If I have a Shure PSM300 IEM system and want to upgrade my buds, do I have to stay with Shure buds?

Hey guys. I am currently in the search for a really good split-coil, 4-string Precision. My first and only choice was the Am. Std. Fender, but I've been checking the Lakland Skyline series (specifically the 44-51) and I've read only good things about them, plus a lot of people say that they are...

I'm a lifelong guitarist who has taken up bass in the past year. I'm familiar with lesser known guitar brands that have great quality for the money, such as G&L and Godin. However, after buying a couple of G&L basses, I'm curious about leaving this comfort zone. Specifically, I'm interested in a...

Metallica's Robert Trujillo is apparently a Warwick endorsee, but... he has/had a signature Zon... is often seen playing Yamahas... plays a Jazz, a Precision, a Stingray and a Ric from time to time... and is on Kimmel tonight playing a Tobias. okay... i know he's so...

So I've been thinking about this for a little while. I absolutely adore flats as they helped me find my tone and feel amazing to play to boot, but how much of a difference is there between brands? Now some are obvious, like Thomastik-Infeld flats being low tension and mid-oriented and Labella...

Interested in checking out some of the more under the radar brands or builders you all might know about. So lets give the small companies and builders working by themselves out of their homes some extra notice. I'll start with these guys: the state of bass - clover: Home Didn't know about them...

I'm curious about Mesa boogie as I've never really seriously tried what they make. Especially the M-Pulse and the Titan V12 But I feel like brands like Mesa, Eden, EBS and so mane others are getting really hard do find. Most of the Mesa heads are out of stock and I feel their stuffs never stay...

I got to thinking about the various brands of motorcycles I've owned over the years, then I tried to figure out how many brands of basses and guitars I've owned. I thought it would be fun to try to list them. Let's play. Numbers in parentheses ( ) indicate how many of that brand you can...

the touch the feel of cotton the fabric of our lives J bass is like cotton in some ways. Have you sent the underdog Kiesel JB5 into battle against some of its more expensive, sought after, and arguably better built competition and how did it fare?

Hey TB! How ya doin'? I've got an old P-Bass knock off that I'm gutting and trying to redo. 5 or 6 years ago I dropped in a Fender Original 1962 pickup. I plugged it in today after leaving it untouched for a few years and there was no output. Upon disassembly, I found that the white wire...

I've been looking through some threads here and I wondered what percentage of talkbassers use which brand of amp. If I've not listed it, please feel free to comment. Please vote! Multi choice to allow for backup amps etc. and both combos and heads included but not cabs. Thanks!

So, as I've been an electric player for over 20 years, I've decided I want to learn how to play upright bass. Where I live, there is quite a demand for upright players in many genres; after a few years of people asking me if I played upright, and disappointed when I answered negatively, I've...
