We're moving into a new place and I've been looking at the multi guitar stands as an alternitive to wall hangers. New place doesn't have the wall space our current place has to make it worth screwing the hangers I have in. Amazon has some pretty cheap ones that should be good enough for home use I hope.

I was looking more at this type AW 9 Nine Holder Multi Guitar Folding Stand Band Stage Bass Acoustic Guitar Display Rack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073ZZ3M8J/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_zUjOAbX690YR8

Thanks for the info. I have a few instruments finished with nitro and was wondering about the reactability of the foam. I can always wrap a micro fiber cloth over it that's worked fine in the past with other not nitro friendly materials.

It's the body shape and pick up configuration. Normal precision (P-Bass) basses have one split pickup like the middle one in that video. Jazz (J-Bass) basses have two pickups like the bridge pickup in that video one at the bridge and one I the middle. They both have different tones. That particular bass is a hybrid of sorts. It has both types of pickups and the slimmer J-Bass neck. FWIW Duff from Guns and Roses used a similar bass in his career with them.

It's pretty common on bolt on neck guitars. Usually it's just in the finish and not much to worry about.

That electronics configuration is a vol-vol-tone set-up. Volume pot for each pickup and a master tone pot that both run through.

I have a badass I on my fretless jazz bass and it rules. I wish some Chinese company would make a clone of a kahler bass trem. My warlock bass body was at some point in it's life (factory?) routed for one and filled in poorly. I've had another badass installed on it but the plug is failing and the bridge is pulling the whole block out. I either have to route out the rest of the plug and re plug it/refinish it or somehow find a used kahler that doesn't cost as much as a bass itself to install into it

The Dark Wind posted:Anyone have any recommendations for a bass around the $300 mark, used or new? I'm mainly a guitarist/pianist but I've played bass in the past. Probably mostly going to use it to play along to funk songs. Some sort of squire p-bass or j-bass Hard to go wrong with one of them and if you decide to upgrade can easily sell it for what you paid for it.

I have an old rear end R2DU rack unit I picked up on ebay years ago. It's 2 Rats with a remote foot switch and you can either run them to different parts of a signal chain or run them into each other. I run it into a vintage Acoustic bass head and an Ampeg 1x15 and it is glorious

Put a scrunchy over the nut that's what a lot of metal dudes do to keep strings from ringing out anyways might as well try it.

Martytoof posted:I’ve been experimenting with the tone of my Jazz bass over the past few days and while I totally understand that turning one coil down leads to hum, what could the deal be with the hum disappearing when I face a certain direction in my practice space? That one has me stumped. Do you have florescent lights or a TV or computer monitor in that space? Sounds like just normal interference. Is the electronics cavity shielded? If it's not lining it with the copper foil tape or shielding paint could help cut down on that.

See if you can find a jazz bass special. It's a p-body with a jazz neck and a p/j pick up set. Downside they usually only come in white or black, but spray paints cheap.

Get a white or blue 3M scrubby pad or a set of micro mesh pads and go to town. You can use sandpaper in a pinch if that's all you can get and it's fine enough you might have to wet sand with that fine of paper though. Micro mesh or the 3M pads you can use dry.

The songster app(website too) is tabs but it has a function where it will play the midi of the song. You can adjust the speed too.

I don't have a picture of it right now but I refinished my brother's jazz bass special with the ReRanch brand paint called crown royal purple. It's a metallic like lake placid blue but deep purple.

That's what banjo players do. Each finger has a range it's assigned to and you focus on getting that down. Look up banjo roll practice if you want an idea about where to start.

You can do the coil split on a pot too. https://www.seymourduncan.com/blog/latest-updates/guitar-wiring-explored-the-spin-a-split-mod I have my fretless jazz with a humbucker in the bridge set up like that on a stacked pot. You can go from full single coil to full humbucker or anywhere in between. I find it more useful than the tone control.

The EH Bassballs circuit is a pretty easy build and it's an envelope follower so something a bass player should have around anyways. It's simplest form it's one knob and a switch but there are 2 trim pots inside you can make into external controls to give it a little more flexibility or just leave as trimpots and set it and forget it.

There's also a jazz bass special that is a p body with a j neck stock. Duff McKagan from guns n roses used one back in the day.

Looks like a pretty clean break get some titebond and some clamps and glue it back on. It'll be stronger than new.

mango sentinel posted:They look like fake guitar wall decor at a touristy beach restaurant. The mustang micro is pretty good it's more guitar oriented but I wouldn't be surprised if they put out a more bass focused one eventually. It has a bunch of different amp models/effects charges via USB and can be used as a USB interface to a computer as well.

Bottom Liner posted:Anyone have a rec for a headphone amp? Looking for a Christmas gift idea. The Fender mustang micro is pretty good albeit more guitar focused, but some of the settings can be good for basses. It also doubles as a USB interface if whoever is getting as a gift needs to record into a computer.

For the double bass find someone who can do old school pinstriping on it with a brush and let them go hog wild on it.
