    Is this the real deal?....Carl Thompson or replica?

    If this bass is the real deal someone should jump on it for 1500 bucks!! I do not know enough about the basses to judge....not signed. That is my first flag. The woods look nice.....the woodwork on the neck joint very nice.....what do you think?? Les Clay pool Bass

    Harley Benton JB75 - are the BLACK inlays real or painted?

    hi! I bought a HB JB75 (sunburst with rosewood fingerboard), and it's working better than I could imagine. I sold my other basses when I realized that this one was working pretty good and had a wonderful fret-work (I like to keep my action the lowest possible). mine has a two pieces ash body...

    Real Vintage vs. Newer Aged Precision Knobs

    Seems that the original knobs for 60's Precisions were lighter, .4 once, and the new as well as newer aged ones are heavier at .6 once. First, is that true? If it is, when did the change occur? I ask because when I first heard that, I checked my 60's Precision against a newer one, and there...

    Is it a real Fender or a fake Fender?

    Hey All, I came across this bass and I am wondering if it is authentic. I believe it is...it's being sold as a MIJ 94 fretless. Unlined board, 11 pick guard holes, strap for the bridge ground...looks legit to me. I'm hoping to put my hands on it tomorrow or the next day and check it out...

    Discounts on (real) SM58s?

    I need to add a number of SM58s to my kit. I can buy them for $99 all day long, but I'm wondering if there are any discounts available anywhere. I can get Chinese counterfeits for $35-70, but that's not what I'm looking for. Anybody got a source for new, real SM58s that offers discounts? Thanks!

    Just an FYI, Having once owed 7 beautiful ASAT basses I proudly wore the moniker ASATMAN. Sadly, I just sold my last ASAT [to my good friend Cuzzie] so I will be now and forevermore be known as SlabBassDan. That is all.

    Carvin RL118 800 watts - real power

    Hi all, Just wondering if this Carvin RL118, 800 watt @ 4 ohms for real? This is one monster of a cab but surely it will fart out with its xmax limitation before getting to 800 watts. How low and loud will it really go? Thanks

    Is this a real Fender or parts bass?

    I don't recognize this Fender model. Parts of it look pretty good but I'm dubious that it's a real Fender. Can anyone verify that it is and if so what model it would be (and country of origin). I asked the seller for details but he knew nothing. Many thanks
