Hi dear fellows bassist! Probably there is a post about this topic but I’m don’t want to read a lot cause no time. So the question is this: An acoustic bass 4 or 5 string to enjoy myself at the beach? Can you share your thoughts? Quick recommendation? Many thanks!

Hey, everyone! I’m in the beginning stages of shopping for a new 5 string. My current main bass is a G&L M2500 tribute. Great bass, plays well, sounds great, etc. I feel like the time has come to finally buy a “really nice” bass and transition my G&L tribute into a back up position. I’m...

My band is about to go on a 10 day tour and I would like to buy a mini amp head to lighten the load. I have an Ampeg SVT 212AV that I currently use a GK800RB with. The GK is in a hard shell case and heavy and I'm currently shopping around for something new. I play in a death metal band with a...

Hey guys! I’m currently looking to upgrade and buy a new bass. I current own and play a Squire Jazz Bass V. I’ve been looking at a couple of basses like the Marcus Miller Sire V7, Ibanez SR605E, and also used Fender Jazz basses. Has anyone had any experiences with these models? I really like the...

you all know how crazy i am about vintagey looking things, so what in the world is that title?!!? well, i just need to find a good, small, class d bass amplifier that has a depth of sub 8 inches. very specific, i know! i’m trying to find an amp head that can work in the fliptop cabinet i’m...

I'm looking for a relatively inexpensive and portable head and cabs combination to replace my Fender Rumble 200 combo with a Rumble 210 extension cab. Ideally, I'd like a lightweight head and a couple of 1x12s, or maybe a 2x12. I can be convinced of other speaker configurations, but I'm trying...

My Sennheiser HD 380 Pro studio headphones that I have been extremely satisfied with both as monitor when tracking/recording, for mixing purposes and for my "ampless" bass and guitar rigs when practicing at home, are sadly giving up after many years faithful service, so I am looking for...

Help!! Just a wife trying to figure out what to get her bass playing husband. My husband is an avid bass player who is into researching, purchasing, reviewing, everything bass related from guitars, amps, strings, pedals, sound systems, etc. His birthday is approaching and I am at a loss as to...

Sup! Hello ! I am sure it’s been done to death.....but I am looking for a portable bass preamp (tube would be great!) with headphones. I am mainly playing clean so distortion is something I don’t care about. I am leaning more towards a jazz or fusion Tone. Don’t really have to have any other...

Hey team. I’ve been slimming down and swapping about bits of my rig, decided I’m missing a flanger so want to rectify that. Initially considered a straightforward choice like MXR or Boss, but then stumbled across some of the more interesting boutique stuff. Currently rather tempted by the...

Right now I have a 10w practice amp. And I was just wondering how much better your bass sounds depending on how many watts a bass amp has. And yes I know most of the great tone etc. come from the fingers. Also any amps in a $200 range that you recommend? And 1 other thing what is the...

Hello all! I'm currently looking at getting a new passive bass as an upgrade from my current Squier Affinity P bass. I'm looking at the Fender Player Jaguar because it's got a more unique look to it and I like the flexibility of the P and J pickups. I'm just worried that it won't be much of an...

Greetings, I may be getting a chance to restore a 1968 Coral 6-12 cabinet. It has no speakers in it at all but the cab is in great shape. I’m on a budget but I’d like to be able to either play a 5-string (w/low B) or convert one of my 4-strings to do drop B or drop A tuning thru it. I was...
