Re: My current corral of basses
can you make a strong contrast between the P and Jazz basses? I'm thinking of getting a Jazz simply because some of my favorable bassists have used them on some of my favorite bass albums but i know the P's tend to be more common. i'm not that knowledged on bass besides knowing how to play one, and...

Re: Bass amp...
Geddy Lee has great tone what does he use If you listen to his sound throughout the years, his tone had a lot to do with what bass he was playing. Early on he had a signature Rickenbacker sound, then later a unique Wal bass sound, and in recent years a tell-tale Jazz bass sound. As far as amps, he'...

Re: Bass amp...
If you're using a six-string you'll probably want a pretty wide frequency range--a 2x12 neodymium set-up with a lightweight solid-state pre/power amp combo like one of the Shuttle amps would do the trick. Definitely. I'm toying with the idea of doing some solo bass shows, if I am satisfied with the...

Re: Favorite guitar and bass designs
It's actually an 8 string bass, like a 12 string with smaller guage strings tuned in octaves. Are those additional strings just guitar strings? String Gauges .045, .065, .080, .100, regular string .018, .028, .040, .050, octave string A bit bigger. Tom Petersson (Cheap Trick) often played a 12 stri...

Not busting balls, but the GIO series is the "entry level" Ibanez line... They are selling for $179 new and between $60 to $120 used. These are the shit guitars they put in the beginners "jam pack". If it's pristine, anything over $120.00 is rip off. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ibane...

Re: Traded one of my P basses
Flame maple is just a veneer, not thick enough to affect tone at all. The plunky sound is due to the basswood or mahogany body it is made with. That is true, but a set of strings really did make a difference. I think the ones on it were the original and were dead as hell. It's a mahogany body. I'm ...
