    Gretsch Or Dean Evo?

    So I’ve been playing bass for nearly 2 years now. Currently I’m playing an Aria pro II IGB, however I’m looking to buy a short scale bass and spending around 250-300. the dean Evo short scale bass has everything I want: 24 frets, humbuckers and short scale.

    ELF system vs. Genzler Magellan 350 combo

    Has anyone had the chance to compare these two? I imagine people will say the Genzler is "better" in a lot of ways, but is there a major discernible difference? Can you get a nice pure tone from the Elf with either the 2x8 or 1x10 (or both)? Does having the Genzler array cab make THAT much of...

    What would you choose? Amp or another bass

Long story short... i put my 78 Fender Musicmaster bass up for sale and have had offers of trade from 2 different guys. One for a Pro...

    Should I stop playing my Gretsch because of electronics?

    I tryed to film an effects demo today and once I started recording I got no sound coming from my bass. This happened before at a gig. I should get a second bass, but should I stop playing hollowbodys? Repairing the jacks and pots are a hassle. FINAL UPDATE: A cable needs to be resoldered to...

    Hello friends, Just scored a great 1963 Gretsch 6070 without a case. Its an odd beast for sure, but hoping someone has had some luck finding a case it fits into. Hard or gig bag, Im not picky. Just trying to avoid the custom (read expensive) route. Thanks for your time. Mike

    Repurposing Gretsch 3-position toggle?

    The Gretsch double-cut long scale basses (6070, 6072, G6072) have in common a three-position tone switch (in place of a tone pot) and another three position switch which I regard as redundant and useless since it is a kill switch, and these basses all have a master volume which IMO performs the...
