    Big Strings: Newtones vs Kaliums

    Hello everyone. I just received a set of Newtones from the UK in the mail and put them on my bass, and want to share my thoughts on them so far. For some background, I've been using Kaliums since the Circle K days on most of my basses and my electric guitars. I have tried virtually every...

    Buying a new bass gave me MORE GAS?!

    I only play a 4 string Fender P. Just bought a 6 string Ibanez w/ Big Singles. You'd figure getting the new bass would subdue the GAS for a bit, right? Nope. I have now seen the light of single coil growl, and I've entered the church of the Low B. Suddenly I need more basses with more growl...
