    Modern Nitro Finishes?

    Being a fan of nitro finishes and vintage basses, I was wondering how modern nitro finishes (on say an American Original or AVRI instrument) compare to nitro of old?

    The 50’s are 70 years ago. Imagine a 1950’s, 60’s 70’s automobile vs a 2021 auto. How things have changed. What bass epitomises the modern bass? The future for cars is electric. What is the future for the bass guitar?

    Modern Rock pick tone using a EBMM Stingray - too harsh or fits well in the song?

    So, my band headed to the studio a couple of months ago to record some new music. One of them was this highly-energetic, bass-driven punk/alternative rock song that really required a tone that "cut through" but at the same time supported the guitars & drums. I ended up using my #1, a Musicman...
