Never ever buying anything from BassDirect again. Purchased a Tech 21 YYZ pedal through their reverb store, paid for it and then got a message saying it's out of stock and been refunded but my refund will take 3-5 days to process which means I'm out of pocket until then and can't go purchase one somewhere else until that money is back in my account. 

I Think the damage may be to far gone and I don't have the funds to buy another Bass but id love to find a way of replacing the top if possible and ideas at this point  would gratefully accepted.  Thanks in advance   

Watching the mighty James Taylor Quartet, in Burnham-on-Sea of all places. Oh my word ❤

There's a first. We walked away from a gig without playing a note as the pub thought we had too many amps (we are a 5 piece) and our amps looked "too loud". We hadn't even plugged in or fully set up. When they asked us to lose a band member or play after 10pm when their restaurant was closed, we packed our gear and left. Lord Raglan in Wokingham, for the record. My advice: never accept a gig there

Red Hot Chili Peppers with Anderson Paak and Thundercat next year. YES! 

Please check out the latest video featuring Abigail Zachko and Colin Cunningham.

I'm pretty sure the crap crap crap strings that came with my kit bass is a 0.135 B.... I'm getting new strings before I go at the nut now i have feeler gauges. Everything needs to go lower by a lot. Question is, how much would I regret a 0.130 B ? much less clank, much less rattle, much less boom?

I assume real strings will actually have more *wire* in them than what came with the rather price conscious kit
