    Sweetwater calling...

    Anybody else get a call from Performance Pavilion? They had me on the line for a minute asking a bunch of music related random questions, until they finally said it was "Sweetwater". I hung up after the word Sweetwater was slipped in. I honestly only bought a cheap cable, like last year...

    Should I return this Rickenbacker??

    So I just purchased a Fireglo Rickenbacker 4003 from Sweetwater. It plays great and functions perfectly. While the finish and craftsmanship overall is fantastic... there is one cosmetic flaw that (especially for a bass in the >$2000 range) I simply can't un-notice. On either side of the...

    www.sweetwater.com/used/categories/bass?query=&page=1&sort=published_desc Who knew Sweetwater had a used marketplace people can post to? I just discovered this recently. With Reverb fees rising, maybe it's worth a shot for sellers. This thread is for Hot Deals, with discussion.

    Do you wait? Or do you dive right in?

    A number of guitar/bass companies will include a sticker on the outside of the shipment saying something to the effect of “Don’t open your new guitar for 24 hours.” They want the new axe to acclimate to its new climate gradually. My question is, do you wait? Do you throw caution to the wind? Or...

    Sweetwater is super low on stock right now

    As many of us do, I like to spend time looking at basses on the various sites. I've noticed that every time I click on a bass on Sweetwater that gets my interest, it says "More on the Way" or " We can get it." I guess the shutdown must have affected their ability or desire to order new stock...

    NBD!! Plus, I found a place to hide my gold.

    So my Fodera came in today. It is literally the nicest bass I think I’ve ever played. Every aspect of it is perfect. Those guys really know how to build a bass. While unboxing it in my garage, I realized that I have way too many bass shipping boxes. But I can’t throw them away. They’re like...

    Where do you keep your Sweetwater ProGear catalog?

    I keep mine in the loo. Where's yours? Edit: Yeah, everything's online now. But that ProGear catalog is like the ole Sears Wishbook, innit? Digital? Just vote "Other." I get all kindsa things digital only. But I loves me that ProGear catalog.

    NBD, 6 string, Ibanez, and Sweetwater experience

    So it's a tad late for a NBD, but I thought I'd share my experience to others.

So I saw...

    In-stock dates - lesson learned
