Hi everyone, I’m looking for a 4-string bass that can genuinely deliver both: warm, vintage-style fingerstyle tone (think passive, like joe dart or jaco pastorious) clear, powerful modern slap tone (active EQ, bright and punchy, like Mark King, wojtek pilichowski, marcus miller, victor wooten...

Rather than rely on third parties for audio and video, TB should be running it's own services. MinIO | S3 & Kubernetes Native Object Storage for AI Has affordable S3 compatible object storage where user media can be uploaded. I do believe most other software supports using this. Check out the...

Cheap annual rate for a club to gain extra features • Private Chat Room for Club Members only, if chats become a thing. • New Club Owner, or whatever you call it, can be granted if the original has been AFK for, 3-6mo. • If there is a Club Subforum, a club could be allowed up to X amount of...

When a Club Originator (seriously, is there an official term for this or could we decide on one? lol ) has been gone for an extended period of time, someone else should be able to step up to maintain things. Even if it's a small position with few responsibilities, it's still expected that...

Alongside the Founder/Creator/Original Poster of a Club, there should be others who are able to do certain tasks within the Club itself. They should be able to edit the initial post and be considered Official sources when submitting information to a wiki about it. They should be able to add...

Instead of clubs being all over the place, wherever they might be most relevent. How about they instead get their own subforum? Perhaps it could be under TB Lounge? It should be obvious from the name what it's about. This would highlight which there are in one central place that's easy to find...

It'd be really cool if there were a chat server for the Community. It could be embedded, optionally. Or, solely run in another browser tab/window and/or client application. Take a look into the following: https://snikket.org/service/quickstart/ https://www.jsxc.org/ https://conversejs.org/...

I'm planning my next Warmoth bass. For the neck pickup, I've chosen a Lollar Precision 90 that needs a home. It's a great, hot, grindy-growly split-P pickup. I just can't make myself build a single-pickup bass and let that bridge position go to waste, though, so...what second pickup should I put...

I have this bass coming in the mail with in the next couple days. Do you guys think a black pickguard would look nice on here? Or should i stick with stock white? Let me know what you guys think bc quite frankly I can't decide. If I do decide to go with black over the white, any suggestions as...

I've been using an Ibanez Soundgear bass for almost 8 years now, and it's performed magnificently for me. But recently one of the tuning pegs broke all of a sudden, which got me thinking that it might be a good idea to look into investing in another bass. I play bass mostly for worship in...

Can you suggest a bass under 700 € ? Which bass would be a perfect shot in this price range ?

Hello everyone. I am someone who uses Ibanez Soundgear basses. I am saving for a custom shop Warwick. Based on FEEL, should I get a corvette or streamer? I personally like the contour of the streamer, but the 'horn' parts of the bases I am mixed between. Let me know what you suggest.

Hi everyone, I'm new here! Talkbass has always been my go-to website for advice regarding gear, but I had yet to post a thread myself. Here it goes: I need some amp counselling. I play in a small three piece band, we play originals. It's a loud band. Our set and songs shift between post and...

Hey all! I'm a gigging bassist and have never owned a compressor pedal before but do think I could benefit from having one. My sound is overall warm, round and vintage like (both with my j and p basses, pick and finger style no slaps). I will be using the pedal for live applications only, and...

I have a small flat and i want buy an electronic piano to play with friends (drums, e.piano and double bass), used. I will play unamplified and i'm serching for some suggestion on a nice sounding "natural" electronic piano, piano sound only. I hate electronic instruments but at this time i...

My drummer and I had gotten into a discussion recently about the old solid state amps me by Teisco, Harmony, Kay, etc back in the 60's/70's and how they still sound pretty different from most modern amps and how "vintage tone" doesn't belong solely to tube amps. This got thinking about, and then...

I have a friend that just bought my JBL Cabaret cab with an E140 JBL 15". She has a barn that's been converted into a play studio to host jams and play sessions for many years now. I used to leave a setup there and the last cab I left there was the JBL. I never thought of selling it but at this...

I've been playing bass for around 7 months, and I've been thinking on upgrading to a better one, as the one I have (Gear4Music Harlem 4) is not that good. And also because I travel quite often and having 2 basses would be perfect. I'm planing on taking the one I have now to were a travel (and...

Help! I need a bass bridge that has 3 mounting holes, is chrome, that is high mass and for a string through body. The bass I need it for is a Fender 1998 American Deluxe Jazz Bass. I have high mass bridges on a few other P-basses and really love them but I am afraid of getting the wrong size...

Hi, I'm new to bass. I bought an American Professional Precision bass a month ago and I'm using the stock strings. I don't know anything about those strings other than they're not flatwounds obviously. I guess they're made by Fender, I don't know. I want to but 2 set of strings, one flatwound...

Hello, So i have been using this Boss ME-50B multi effects for quite some time now. I recently got myself a few more stomp boxes : MXR M87 bass compressor, MXR M80 Di+ , EHX Big Muff pi. I was wondering how do i set these pedals up (what should my pedal chain should be). I still want to user...

Be able to have an individual thread sorted in reverse order if whatever is displayed. For example, it would be helpful to be able to choose to have Music Deal threads sorted oldest first when I have my overall settings set to oldest first.

Hello, I have a single pickup FB-5 Issue is that this is "too much" for the specific church I'm on staff for. What do you guys have/like? My preference is for a "Fat" and "articulate" sound With emphasized clear mids. I'd be more than willing to trade my Aguilar with someone on this thread.

Make the TMB 605 with two big split pickups, or better yet; two Big Split, to eliminate noise when soloed.

Hey Good Folks of the TB I have been using a tube driven Aguilar db680 for quite a few years, which directly outputs a tube driven Summit Audio TLA50 limiter, then directly into my United Audio interface to my Imac and into Logic X. I love the sound. With the Aguilar, Dave basically optimized...

My bedroom practice amp is now cutting in and out. Its used all the time, so i dont know why this started. I thought it was the input jack, but from trouble shooting a little it seems to be a volume pot. I will be playing, and the volume reduces, if i wiggle the volume it jumps back to normal. I...

1. Have a great time discussing ideas and listening to the ideas of others 2. Read what others have written. (Okay so if it is a really long thread maybe you can skip to the end). 3. Try and see Talkbass as a huge dinner party where everyone has a seat at the table. 4. Be...

Hello all, I am looking to move from my Ampeg BA-108v2 to something I can take out to a Jam night and out to play with friends. I am looking at a few options. Firstly, I am looking at the TC Electronic BG250. I love it’s tone and the inclusion of the Toneprints. I am currently looking at the...

Hello Everyone. I didn't know where to post this so here goes. I live in an apartment now and can't be making lots of noise. Is there some device I can get to play my bass thru? Some kind of small amp with headphones kind of thing? Or something different? Before I moved into the apartment I...

Is there anything comparable to the VooDoo PP2+ size wise (or smaller) and number of outputs that would be cheaper than the PP2+? What are you all using that you like currently for iso power? Also, If I run two power supplies, is there an adapter to join both power supplies into one power...

I have noticed some handy filters at the top of the Bass Guitars For Sale page. I was wondering if we could also have a quick filter according to string count (i.e. 4-strings, 5-strings, & 6+ strings). As a sample, I've attached a mock-up of the idea in mind:
