Hi all, I have a sdgr 5-string and it is buzzing really bad so I want to exchange the preamp inside. I'm trying to find a manual online or something so I can figure out exactly what I need and then figure out my options as far as what to look for. It have four knobs but I don't know if I need a...
Hey y'all. I recently acquired a brand new Spector Dimension 5. I'm almost head over heels for it. What's holding me back is the noise introduced when I pull the Master knob for the single coil mode. It's fine with the blend at noon but when I turn one way or the other, the problem presents...
Hi TB'ers
I'm in the market for a 5 string PJ bass and think these are the two I'm looking at. I'm wondering if any one has some insight. I currently own a Lakland skyline and love the feel. relatively wide, high radius neck 19/18mm string spacing is likely what I see as important. Also open to...

Hey, everyone!
Anyone know of or have a Deep 5 fretless for sale? Lined or unlined is cool.. MB-2 (4 or 5 string) also a consideration.. Fretless, of course.
I have a nice Edwards Jazz Bass for sale/trade.. Hoping to find someone to take that as a partial trade towards an Allen, and I'll add...
I will start by admitting that I am not a seasoned bass player - but I do record bass riffs and piece my compositions together in Cubase. I have 5 string Ibanez Ergodyne with active pickups.
Something I have noticed today is that when I play the same 2 notes on my E-string, each note is not in...

What's the heaviest gauge string anyone's fit on the Yamaha TRBX505? I'm getting one this week and I want to drop tune to AEADG and ADADG. The Kalium string tension calculator shows that the low A should be a .148 to have comparable tension to a .130 at B. I'm wondering if the .148 will fit in...

I have a bass with active pickups. When I plug it into a bass amp run through a PA system I have been using with a band in the last couple of weeks it causes a low buzz but only when the other musicians are not playing. It goes away when I turn the volume knob all the way down. When I plug it...
Hello, I am in the dilemma between buying any of the 3 basses (5 strings), I have been looking a lot for a Yamaha TRB 5I, but the attempt has been unsuccessful, so reaching a more limited end, I have opted for the following 3 :
- MTD Kingston Z5
- Yamaha TRB 1005
- Sire M7
I would like to know...
I am playing bass in a new church band and my in-ear monitor was cracking and garbled in my ear but the house sound is great. i bought new in-ear Westone 30 monitors with 3 drivers thinking that was my problem but it is just as bad as my old set. I play a Cirrus 5-string. Any suggestions?
I don’t know anything about the electronics and inner workings behind the controls of bass guitars, but I’m looking to sell mine and upgrade to something else, and I want to resolve this issue before I begin posting listings. The included video is a short demonstration of the noise in question...
Hey guys, I’m new here and happy to finally be part of TalkBass.
I own a Yamaha BB735A (which I find myself super comfortable with) and a Yamaha BB235. Since of course I’m mainly using the BB735A, I decided I want to make the other one fretless (I’ve done that before with a Fender Jazz bass, my...
I recently had an acquaintance of mine use his thickness planer to plane some walnut I will be using as a top wood for my bass. Once he finished he noticed there was a slight bow in one of the pieces, and advised me to soak it in water and then either clamping it or placing something heavy on it...
I have a pair of Nordstrand Big J-Blade 5s I'm selling. 3.73" length, Clean & Clear winding. They look new, as you can see by the pictures. Selling because I prefer hum-cancelling pickups rather than single-coil. 5+ inches of leads left - I don't think I ever cut them. $150 including shipping to...

Hello everyone,
Has anyone had any experience with CSR Guitars in Byron, Georgia? I heard, and this is just from the very limited info I have found online, that they are/were crafting some really high quality stuff, and I found a ridiculous deal for one of their basses online.
Let me know if...
Been eyeing a 5 string bass thats been sitting in this pawnshop near me for about 3 months. Anybody ever bought from a pawn shop before? Post experiences below please.
Surine Quest NTVII - 2012
Rare Surine bass for sale. If you know about Scott Surine’s build’s then you know these basses are impeccably built. This bass has incredible tone and because of the three J pickups, the options are endless. Honestly this bass was on my “do not sell” list but like all...

Not sure if this is allowed, but I am making an interesting build over in the DB/ EUB forum. But some of the issues I am running into are less double bass issues and more BG build issues. (Also this forum seems way more responsive than the DB forum)
I'm not going to replicate the thread over...
Looking to pick up one of these two basses and curious what the TB community thinks. I play in a metal band so that's my primary focus but I do expect to do some jazz quartet stuff once things are back to normal.
Any pros/cons on either of these that anyone can share?
Looking for any Passive 5 string Jazz bass that has a maple fretboard. My preferred budget is $500 and below (Better if I can score one under $300). Will cover shipping charges!

Guys i see a lot of threads on here where people just dont know what they are talking about. Like 20 people will comment and say the same thing, and all of them are wrong. If you come here for advice, take it with a grain of salt.
I literally saw a bunch of people call a music man bass fake...
Hello Tb!
I have a 2008 German Warwick $$ 5 in Nirvana Black Oil stain. Bass is in fantastic shape, previous owner made a few touch ups on scratches in the finish. I tried to capture it in a picture by the knobs, most of them are on the back where belt rash would occur and no one would see...
