    For sale Amazing Sadowsky Modern 24

    Let me start by saying, I sold this bass locally back in May of this year. It was the first major bass purchase by the buyer. I agreed to buy it back if it didn't work out for him. Not long after the sale, he realized it was too much bass ($$$$) for him, and I did buy it back. So once again, up...

    Modern micro amps - disposable?

    So, I've been thinking. I have an old GK 400RB, the last of the original series born in January 1990. It looks like it's been thrown down a few flights of stairs in it's life, and probably been run over by a tractor at least once, but it works a treat. I also know that I can always find someone...

    Wanted WTB: Modern Player *SS* Jazz or MIJ SS (?)

    Hi all. Time to admit my stubby fingers are really not suited for a conventional bass. Unfortunately I was on kind of a hiatus from bass last year when Fender had the Modern Player Short Scale Jazz out, but that seems like it would have been a perfect fit for hands and budget. Right now I'm...

    I think I stumbled upon a modern classic.

    Tame Impala - Currents A friend recommended this to me and I am absolutely floored. This music is just TOO dang good. These guys need to be way more popular. The basslines are fantastic, the guitar riffs are innovative, the compositional choices are unexpected and great, and they have their own...

    Modded Fender Modern Player Jazz Bass

    I recently upgraded my Modern Player Jazz bass with an EMG 35DC in the neck and EMG LJ in the bridge. Although the Modern Player Jazz is a very affordable and easy-to-mod bass, I haven't seen many modded MPJ's on here. The tone and feel of this bass is phenomenal for a $500 made-in-China bass...

    Accugroove vs. fEarful vs. Other Flat-Reponse Cabs

    Did a search for "Accugroove vs fEarful" and came up with nothing, I don't know how much I'll get in the way of practical experience or testimonials for the cabs, but it doesn't hurt to get the ball rolling. With the current band I'm in, I have a certain sound I'm going for but the BL is VERY...

    Best Bass for Modern Jazz/Funk/Latin

    I need advice on the best bass for Modern Jazz. I currently have a Spector Legend 5 with SSD pickups and the Tone Pump Jr. It was OK for a time but I can't really get the sound I want from it. I do like having 24 frets though. Would like to keep it around !1200 - $1700. I have read posts about...

    SOLD Modern Player Tele Body semi-loaded

    Body with wired pickguard and humbuckers only (no bridge, no jack plate) is $160 shipped as shown. The good: The mudbuckers sound huge and the ability to dial in volume for either pickup is great but I'm a simple guy and have always pined for a single coil P. The less good: The bass looks like...

    From which type of bass do you prefer it from? These choices are more for the type of bass (e.g. Jazz basses could also comprise the single-coil Jaguars, Peaveys, Sandbergs, Sadowsky's, etc...) than actual brands. Sure sure, there are plenty of TB folks who don't like playing with flats, but...

    Sadowsky Modern

    So I acquired a Sadowsky Metro Modern4-24 early this week to pair up with my main axe UV70. An incredible tone and playability as you'd expect from the maker. In fact I achieved to set the lowest ever action out of all the basses I have played past and present. It is also noticeably lighter than...
