    Compromising straight wrists vs. fingers close to fingerboard

    Hello In the last couple of months I've come back to playing bass after a break of about five years, I played for about six or seven years before that. When I played before I didn't work very much on my technique, I just sort of got by. Since I started again I have made an effort to learn to...

    Straight Edge and Feeler Gauge Method

    Forgive me if this particular question has been answered in a previous thread, I did do a lot of searching. I realize that this issue is perhaps somewhat OCD, but I am relatively new to setting up my own basses and I am trying to establish a baseline so that I can gauge relief with my eyes and...

    Tuning machines for Squier with straight shaft?

    I'm interested in replacing the tuning machines on my Squier VM P, and wondered if anyone knows if there's a direct-fit replacement available with a straight shaft? The reason being that I would like to have the same kind of shaft on both of my basses so that it's easier to swap strings between...

    Side effects from a very straight neck?

    I have most of my basses set to .012" relief with action in the 5/64" range. Got it off the official Fender bass setup guide 15+ years ago, and it has always been super comfortable for me. Recently I purchased a very lightly used G&L Kiloton and when I tried to set it to those specs a problem...

    NAD!!! And straight to a gig.

    I plugged it in at the house for about 10 minutes. Then it was off to host a blues jam. I'm in love! It's light, it's loud and it looks good.

    This instrument cable REALLY does make a difference. Purchased new only a few months ago on the recommendation of the Sadowsky owner's group and I was NOT disappointed. There's a sonic definition and full range signal that's not apparent with any other cables. And I've used all the best...

    Straight from Jaco...

    I was first learning bass, and watching the interview with Jaco, his advice was to learn the melody to every song. I cannot emphasize enough how that has affected my playing. Just that one little nugget of advice, I may never play the melody in an actual session, but I have it, and I can...

    Can I run my darkglass b3k straight into a d.i box?

    Hi guys, Without a amp head is it possible to go bass - darkglass b3k - D.I box? My friend thinks it's possible but I can't get my head round it working? Many thanks. P.s my amp head is faulty so looking for alternatives.

    DAE Tuck Their Fretting Hand's Thumb to Help Keep a Straight Wrist?

    I've recently experimented with tucking my thumb underneath my neck to help keep my wrist straight. It seems to be working pretty well, but I don't see anybody else doing it. Is there a reason doing this may be counterproductive?

    Do you prefer straight or 90 degree plugs?

    I’m not sure if this is the appropriate forum to discuss, so... I have always preferred to plug a 90 deg. jack into my bass, regardless of whether the output is on the front or the edge. I just worry that if the cord gets stepped on or the bass is knocked against something, there’s a greater...

    NCD...... straight to the closet

    This is where it was going to end up because of space limitations, so after testing and cleanup it went directly in the closet. It is age. I didn't want to move it more than I had to. Lifting a 100lb. combo amp on to an extension speaker cabinet now takes a concentrated effort. It is playable...

    What does wiring a p-bass pickup straight to the output do tonally?

    What does wiring a p-bass pickup straight to the output do tonally? I'm considering a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder or a Steve Harris signature and feel like it might be a good idea to wire directly to the output jack due to hearing that it sounds better, but what does it really do tonally?
