    "Bruce the Hero": an awesome Jack Bruce hommage/pastiche by one-man-band Carlo Poddighe

    In short: per the title. In long: - title says it all (Jack was nothing short of a hero to many of us, and not simply for his bass skills) - no, no connection to Poddighe, myself; not that I would mind, either - except he doesn't appear to have much use for a bassist, as will be clear by...

    Jack Nut Tip

    I thought I'd share a little tip (as the kids would say..."a hack"). I discovered a way to keep the output jack from rotating while you're tightening the locking nut. Normally, you should remove the pickguard so you can hold the output jack in place. You don't want the output jack turning...

    Are Pure Tone Multi-Contact Jacks an upgrade?

    Hello, I think this is my first thread here after 10 years! Sorry for that The thing is. I came into a Pure Tone Multi-Contact stereo 1/4 jack in Amazon, and was considering it for my Sire V7 Gen2, since the plug could use a better grip. Not so long ago I upgraded the stock jack (which was...

    Jack Casady Bass Strings

    Hello There! I got myself an Epiphone Jack Casady Bass and I'm hearing equal pros and cons for flats v. rounds on it. What do y'all recommend? Roundwound or Flatwound for this bass if I intend to play rock / country with her?

    Rickenbacker 4001 Pickup / Jack problem

    I recently bought a 1978 Rickenbacker 4001 and I can't get both pickups to work on the Standard jack. The neck pickup only works on the "Standard" plug and bridge is only on the "Rick-o-Sound" jack. They are on either side of the switch so I don't think that's the issue and I checked the wiring...

    help me with a question about P10 connector on a guitar?"

    Recently, I bought a Takamine GD30CE guitar. However, when I plug the P10 cable all the way into the jack, the guitar doesn't work on the amplifier. But when I pull the P10 cable slightly out of the jack, it starts working again. What I mean is that the cable fully plugged into the jack doesn't...

    output jack: contact pressure

    I have an output jack that may need to be replaced, but I first wanted to get some input from those who do repairs on electronics. A few months ago, I heard a loud pop produced when my leg made contact with the connector in the side-mounted jack. It seemed as if the contact pressure against the...

    Epi EB-3 vs Epi Viola

    Hello Which bass are closer to Jack Bruce's Warwick signature bass as sound? ( like this performance) I know Jack used Gibson EB-3 but his Warwick has different sound. Warwick is "softer" than EB-3. EB-3 has really hoarse sound. And Epi viola is different from Hofner Violin bass. So I think...

    Noll or Puretone barrel jack? (a/o/t Switchcraft)

(I know, the old style design is best, but I'm looking to do as much work myself as possible and don't trust myself with a Dremel.) Switchcraft seems like the standard upgrade choice, but I haven't heard much about...

    Barrel jack replacement...

    I have 2 basses with barrel jacks and the general consensus is that they suck. Both of them are crackly and both of them need to be replaced. I am entertaining the idea of replacing both of them with electrosockets, which I have zero experience with. I keep looking at YouTube videos and no one...

    Phantom power XLR jack wiring help please

    I have an active bass which features both an XLR jack and an ordinary 1/4" jack. After a bit of research I've found that the XLR would have originally been able to supply phantom power to the preamp, but it's since been been disconnected. I'd like to make it original again and wire it back up...

    Jack Casady Signature Bass

    I'm a longtime owner of an early model of the Epiphone Casady. What has impressed me the most about it is that it's louder than the average bass--even at its lowest setting. I've never seen that printed anywhere. Is it just me?

    Output Jack

    Hi, I have plans to buy the EMG Geezer Butler PJ pickups, and like the fact that it is solderless. However, the installation guide from the EMG website says that I will have to solder if my instrument uses a 'long panel output jack'. How do I know/check if my bass has this or not? (my bass is a...
