    Short cut exotic wood supplier in Canada?

    As the title says, I’m looking for a place to buy off cuts of exotic wood in Canada. I want to make a ramp for at least one bass (maybe two) and a thumb rest for another. Obviously, I don’t need a whole slab for this purpose and wouldn’t want to waste a whole piece for these small items...

    Playing with ramp

    Just got a beautiful used 6 string with a finger ramp and not sure how to approach it. Is it only for the thumb, or also for stabilizing hand with ring finger? I play a lot of plucking chords and not sure if the ramp will only get in the way or if I just need to change my technique and pluck...

    Ramp over pickup cover ?

    Salut all, Does such a thing exist ? I like playing over the neck pickup. I like to have the pickup cover at at very precise distance under the strings, I like to crush my fingers against it. But of course, I can't raise the pickup like I want, otherwise some obvious Clank and Pock appear...

    OLP Bass Neck has a Ramp

    Folks, A bad shim and a reckless owner led to the bass developing a ramp at the neck. Any ideas as to how a ramp in the neck can be removed? Picture for representation only (Courtesy: Haze guitars). Thank you!

    I want to make a PLA Ramp but I'm worry about the material. I noticed PLA is biodegradable and its friction resistance is not as good as ABS.

    Epoxy for the ramp (Billy Sheehan style)

    Billy Sheehan always talks about putting epoxy on top of his split coil pickups to bring the pickup closer to the strings, so the fingers hit the same spot perfectly (not undershooting and missing the string and not overshooting and getting caught under the string). Does anyone know where I can...

    The Amp Ramp is the best 20 dollars I have ever spent on bass gear.

    Invalid Link Removed Just a PSA. I have no affiliation with them, just want to spread the good word. It works especially well with bass combo amps, since they tend to be longer front to back and less prone to tipping. I use it with my GK MB112 to point it at my head in gigs. Fits in the...

    Finger ramp question

    For you ramp players, is there any difference in feel between playing with a ramp between P and J pups versus between two soapbar pups?

    Bass Ramp and Thumb Rest

    Had to throw this out there. I had a customer who wanted a little different ramp. He wanted something between the pickups and in front of the neck.

    Ramp on a P-Bass - anyone done it?

    Ramps suit my playing style. I'm considering a P, wondering if anyone has put a ramp on theirs? It would be a bit odd, but I'm a bit odd too. I'm thinking of "a couple of inches from the pickup back toward the bridge". Anyone done it?

    Double Bass For Aircraft enthusiasts: the Ramp Tramp and the Bull, the history of the Tu-4

    It's one of aviation's greatest stories, how the Soviet Union got their hands on three intact B-29 Superfortress bombers and reverse engineered them creating the Tupolev Tu-4 Bull and in doing so had their own intercontinental bomber fleet on tap. But there are a lot of fables surrounding the...

    using pickup as a ramp - smooth top vs protruding pole pieces

    I have a couple of basses where the pole pieces are flush with the top of the pickup cover and I find that I really like playing directly over the pickup with the pickup close to the strings - sort of using it like a ramp. But I have a couple of basses where the pole pieces poke up about 1/8"...
