    Do You Have a Budget Backup?

    After having not brought a backup bass to low profile bar gigs for several years, I have been bringing one for the last little while (usually a Steinberger). The thought process for me is that I think it is more likely that a bass get stolen than having a bass failure, so having a budget bass...

    And Brought a Backup Bass...

    So, last evening I brought a backup bass to my bar gig in the first time in well over a year and... I didn't need to use it! I know this subject has been discussed ad nauseam and I often think about it, but I agree with a fellow TB'er (I don't remember who), that most of the time I feel like...

    Spare bass parts - electronics cover

    I have a 1984-1987 MIJ Fender Jazz Bass Special (PJR-65R model) and have been looking for a replacement plastic electronics cover that goes on the back for it. I've monitored eBay for a while now as well as posted a few wanted ads on here but to no luck. Anyone know of any other "spare bass...

    Spare amp with distortion/dirt

    Hi, I own a Mesa Titan V12. I'd like to find an amp with distortion as backup, just in case. I was thinking about the EBS TD660. Is it a good idea? Is the drive on the TD close to the distortion produced by the Titan? I'm aware the Fafner would be a good choice but I'm not willing to spend that...

    Eden WTX-264 - where can I buy spare parts?

    This is my first post so fingers crossed for a result. I'm the proud owner of an Eden WTX-264 but need to replace both the mute switch (which is causing the odd "crack" and the "pull mid shift" combined pot/switch (the pot works but when I pull the knob, the shaft comes right out). Does anyone...

    Too many spare parts = NBD

    I had enough bits lying around to put together a reasonable P-bass, just needed to find a body(I have this strange condition where I just can't leave bass parts alone, they have to be assembled into something!). I don't have a fender-type bass currently strung with rounds so this fills that need...

    The MarPegDer (Clean + Dirty Tube Amp Design & Build Log)

    Howdy folks, I am still as crazy as ever and this project aims to prove it! The concept behind this design is pure self indulgence. It is based upon some of my favorite amplifiers and several designs I've been kicking around that never made it to fruition. It will feature two very different...

    Mini Tour via airline: Bring a backup bass?

    For those of you who travel regularly to gigs via airline, do you bring a backup bass? I'm on the fence... I have 5-6 shows lined up in CA this spring for which I'll use my favorite modded P with EMGs - the upside of which is I can easily bring a spare set of strings and electronics and do a...
