    P-Bass: Different setup for betting slap/pop?

    Thanks thanks everybody for the input. i think i will try changing the action just a bit to experiment and see if it helps. what i was trying to explain is that i know for a fact that its not technique. like obviously you have to vary your technique to adapt to different basses, but i get...

    P-Bass: Different setup for betting slap/pop?

    Hey guys, I've played an old p-bass knockoff for a while now, was my first instrument, pretty decent for the 100 bucks my parents probably paid for it ahaha. anyways, its got a pretty deep round tone, great for fingerpicking soft jazz and stuff like that, and is good for rock with a pick, but...

    Acoustic guitars under $500?

    Noob pedal question

    No reason for sarcasm imo. No, the 1/4" cables between your pedals are NOT carrying power, you need to plug each one individually, or use a multi pedal power brick. Adam

    Note to self: Guitar Parts Canada=Never Again

    Unfortunately, I feel the need to warn anyone about this company. I was hoping for a good experience when i made my first order from GPC over 2 months ago. Unfortunately, i STILL have not received the 4 pots i ordered from them so long ago. I've exchanged several emails with the owner, manager...

    Why Not Elixirs?

    And still hasn't learned? Just because this is the internet doesn't mean the general rules and guidelines of society no longer apply. Its a known fact that there are some highly respected people on this board, and there are some punk kids too. But while we are in open opinion mode, I...

    Do any of you guys own the Danelectro FAB Distortion Pedal? Or...

    i recommended one for my older brother because he is a very casual player, never leaves the basement and isnt a tone freak. its held up fine for him, but ive always been disappointed with the action of the switch and the tone when i use it. Adam

    Why Not Elixirs?

Then i broke a G string, and payed 20 bucks for a new set. 4 days later, i broke another g string. 20 bucks. and then one more g string. bought some Martin SP's, liked them, but missed the feel and tone of Elixirs (sorry!). never broke one in several...

    Sonic Effects of a Cutaway?

    It looks cooler. no really. other than the obvious asthetic difference and the better access to the upper frets: you could say a bigger body may have a fuller tone, but that would be a terribly general statement. there are always going to be terrible sounding non cutaways and amazing sounding...

    Agile Guitars

    oh ya one other thing. My Agile LP is easily the heaviest guitar I've ever held. Keep that in mind if you're on the smaller side or play live every night and/or jump/move around alot of stage. It's worth it for the tone though.;) Adam

    Agile Guitars

    I absolutely love mine. I've only played Gibson's in stores, I've played tons of Epiphones of all levels, and my Agile beats everything I've touched. The neck and fretwork is definitely a highlight of the workmanship. The paint job on mine is fantastic. The pickups are pretty good, but some of...

    Wiring issue or faulty pot?

    I'm definitely considering it. My local shop guesses around 40 bucks for the work alone. Honestly, if i decided to take it there, thats not a ridiculous price imo. My dads an electronics engineer, so ya the more i think about it, i probably will end up doing it myself . ordering tonight...
