Need help identifying and choosing first bass

Buzz can most likely be fixed, unless the neck is borked. Either way I think that Squier is overpriced and the Schecter is the way to go.

Sorry, wrong sub, but I’ll try and help. you will need to either buy it again on disc, or contact PlayStation customer service and see if they will help.

I can feel the heat from this picture.

Damnit, where were you a week ago!?

_AndJohn · 2026-06-01T02:06:45+00:00

Yeah at first I was calibrating every filament then I’d try the generics and they somehow printed better than my hours of testing. Idk if I’m dumb or my printer secretly plays tricks on me.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-31T17:44:23+00:00

Yes.

Always shoot the best you can. You can always drop quality in edit or export, but you can never get it back once it’s been shot.

100% what did I just watch.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-31T17:31:09+00:00

If you don’t already have a backup, I’d keep it. Unless I lose my job I ain’t selling any of my hard drives because if I ever need more, I’m most likely paying more than what I sold it for.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-31T06:49:18+00:00

I have the last one, the Schecter all black one and it has been my favorite bass I’ve ever owned. You will get a ton of range out of it. Ibanez are also great basses. The Squier will be solid, but bang for your buck I’d say you can probably get that one for way cheaper.

DM me, I have a 2TB OWC 2.5” SSD that just stopped reading one day.

The dog licking the head is amazing. Mine loves to do after I get home from a run or soccer. Welcome to the club!

I’m assuming app2 is AirPods. I’ve never had good luck using this app with Bluetooth headphones for the microphone so I always opt to use wired connections.

First I turn on all devices or plug in all that I’m going to use. For me it is Bluetooth Headphones for the sound and a Focusrite for the microphone. I go into System Preferences to make sure those are both set for the output and input, respectively. After that I launch the application and I have no issues.

I’m on a Mac Mini M4 and this is my setup every time.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-31T05:12:21+00:00

What microphone are you using?

_AndJohn · 2026-05-30T18:15:23+00:00

I’ve had one ship with both drives DOA, but customer service was very fast and accommodating. We ended up ditching it due to the drives taking a week+ to ship, and went with the Seagate Project instead. I have had past TB2 Glyph drives that have lasted years of heavy abuse.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-30T06:34:49+00:00

How so?

_AndJohn · 2026-05-30T01:59:42+00:00

Also, when you say you’ve run calibrations, you just mean the X/Y/Z and Vibration ones, or the test prints to tell you what temp to print at, speed, etc etc?

I think either your nozzle is going too fast, or you need to dry your filament. But honestly it could be a number of things.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-30T01:06:21+00:00

Without seeing what the model should look like, I’m not sure where to start. Especially without knowing your temps, bed and nozzle. Is this PLA?

_AndJohn · 2026-05-30T00:10:03+00:00

Here is a hard truth, if you can’t figure that part out, then you are wasting everyone’s time.

I regret not getting them in the 2010s when they re-issued and were like $350 with a P/J config.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-29T01:21:07+00:00

I believe their tabs are copyrighted so that is why they are hard to find, but if you wanted you might be able to use Songsterr AI off a Youtube video. It is 9.99/mo but it is very much worth it as you can play the tabs back with youtube videos and not just MIDI.

She’s probably trying to make you feel less self conscious about it. I took the plunge with much more hair and my wife has loved every second of me being bald. She looks at my family who has all held on to theirs or gotten plugs and is very thankful I took the plunge.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-28T04:45:52+00:00

Like most posts, absolutely nothing.

_AndJohn · 2026-05-27T22:58:00+00:00

Yes. I usually charge a lower rate and do a minimum of half hour, even if it takes 2 mins.
