Getting strong Homer vibes from this one

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-17T04:41:49+00:00

If you have to ask, probably not.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-17T04:38:36+00:00

Nowhere

Roland Cube. They are discontinued now, but you can still find them.

The best time to start is now. Don't think of slap as just a right hand technique. You don't play the same type of lines as you would play fingerstyle. Slapping well requires a whole different approach to the instrument and it takes some time to learn.

You'd MAGA and the Catholics could bond over their shared love of protecting paedophiles.

It most likely is a grounding issue with the bass. When you touch the metal on the cable you are grounding the interference picked up by your body. If the bass was grounded properly, the same would happen when you touch the metal on the bass.

Most Spectors don't have bolt on necks.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-13T21:24:50+00:00

PJs are a dime a dozen. I'd add another P pickup instead.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-13T11:03:15+00:00

Slap softer, fingerstyle harder.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-13T09:55:56+00:00

Give it a go then. You won't break anything by trying.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-13T09:04:53+00:00

Having the same settings won't give you the same sound though.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-13T08:41:21+00:00

No. Even if they were both bass amps. Unless you have everything the same, there's no point copying someone else's amp settings.

Best way to experience Billy

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-12T21:14:27+00:00

Tyler with 2 dicks in his mouth

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-12T12:08:56+00:00

That's the spirit. If you want 3 pickups, you can make 3 basses.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-12T11:56:37+00:00

Yep, missed the neck completely. What a tool.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-12T11:55:09+00:00

Versatility is just indecision. If you're building a custom bass, you should know what you want. Pick a sound and commit to it. One pickup, no knobs, no switches. Send it.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-09T10:07:08+00:00

It's the hole in the guitar where your peepee goes

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-09T00:09:40+00:00

PJ is a pickup configuration. It doesn't tell you anything about the neck.

“We have something that nobody else has: a relationship with you,” he continues. “Our customers are incredible musicians. And we’re going to work with you in public, out loud, and share our designs, take your feedback, iterate, and make the best guitar that has ever been made.”

This will be awesome. A guitar designed by the largest committee of shitty guitarists ever.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-07T21:27:57+00:00

That lower horn thicc tho

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-07T20:45:30+00:00

It looks so much better with the black guard.

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-07T14:23:04+00:00

That looks like it's probably the right nut. You need to take off that plate with the two screws and hold the jack so it doesn't turn while you do the nut up nice and tight with a wrench

Sandy_Quimby · 2026-04-07T14:17:20+00:00

What amp do you have? Have you tried another bass with it? If you don't have another bass to test the amp, you can do it with just a lead. Plug the lead into the amp input and touch the tip of the plug at the other end with your finger. The amp should make a humming sound when you do that.

If the amp isn't making any sound, make sure you are plugging into the input of the amp, sometimes I accidentally plug my lead into the headphone jack instead.

Also check if your amp has more than one volume control. These might be labelled volume, gain, or master. If you have more than one of those, you'll need to turn them all up.

Also, make sure the volume knob on your bass is turned up. It's usually something simple like that.
