  1. Here's what their web host said. So talkbass just parrotted it. https://webnx.com/ogden-datacenter-issue/ I disbelieve the water story. Hogwash.
  2. Yeah I saw one, and it's gone. I can't see buying one of those allparts repro necks.
  3. That's like a horrible car accident on the freeway. No matter how hard you try not to look, you still look.
  4. Where do you live so I can steal that neck, please?
  5. I had a guy suggest a black pearloid guard over on twatbass.com. I dunno. Seems like every brand has a different coloration. I'm thinking if I was to swap the guard it would be to this one. Kinda like the white binding...then again I like Stingray5's no guard pic...
  6. Nice, looks way better. Tort has it's place, of course...
  7. LOL like every 10 minutes? I'd agree he doesn't, Entwhistle's deal with Rotosound was you can use my name if you keep me supplied. He worked with Roto to develop the Swing Bass string ya know...
  8. I knew you'd say that, lol. I'd bet big money those great folks at Hipshot would sub in some not brass saddles if asked.
  9. Man...I had the guard off mine when installing the thumb rest, and wondered why I should put it back on when I don't even own a pick...In the end I reinstalled it because I didn't want to fuss with fixing the screw holes. This look, with a black stack pot control plate, would be the bee's knees in my lowly opinion.
  10. THANK YOU. This has been driving me nuts for a week.
  11. Starting at about 2:17, I want to say Jeff Beck or...I just can't recall...please...help...me...
  12. Alex does a lot of it (with pedals). If you study him in live videos you'll notice him stomping a pedal not preceding a lead or anything, so it's not an effect for his guitar...
  13. I'm considering swapping out the factory pots for a stack pot config, has anyone done this to a late model bass? How did it sound afterward? TIA

    Thank you. It is a 2020 Geddy Lee USA signature, I added the thumb rest IN THE RIGHT PLACE. Ole Leo didn't get it right the first time there, now did he? Geddy is my hero, but I bought the bass because I found it on ebay for $1600 and it is 2000 bucks new. I have zero intentions of keeping it "original", hence the black Hipshots and other ideas I have for it.
  15. silly billy? I didn't type that.
  16. I carried my guitar down to Guitar Center and the little college silly billy wouldn't pull one out of the bag to see if it would fit. I would say I'll never shop there again, but...I've never bought anything from them.
  17. I am wanting a black block maple neck to replace the pearl block, haven't found a Jazz version yet. Fender sells a Precision version, but no... On the fence about a black Hipshot hi mass bridge, or maybe a black ashtray. I'm unsure it would even fit considering how far back the bridge is mounted, though...

    Just another fat old yank who bought a new Jazz after 15 years without a bass. I won't be restringing my GL Jazz with flats or replacing the guard with a hideous tortoiseshell one, either. May I stay?
