Hi, everybody. I'm having a hard time finding replacement strings for my sons Ric 4003. The gauge sizes that it came with and are listed in the manual don't match any conventional string package that we can find anywhere. Anyone else have this problem and what is your solution? Thanks.

Hey. Sorry if this has been discussed already, as the search option leaves a lot to be desired. What are the best brands for Fuzz Pedals? Should I be worried if I want to buy a used one? Is Boss the best as usual? Thanks for your wisdom in advance.

Yeah, he deserves it. Found it on MF for $1550.00 with the case.

Hi, everybody. My son wants to upgrade his bass. Right now he has a Washburn Taurus 4 string and an SX Jazz 4 string. We are looking at a Rick 4003 series 2010 in Midnight Blue. How does this bass rank in the Rickenbacker family? And what have been the price ranges that you have seen? Thanks for...

I used the wrong cleaner on my base and it dulled my high gloss finish. Anybody have any ideas to restore the gloss? Can I use a buffing wheel with a polish to fix it? It's a T24 Washburn Taurus 4 string neck through wood bass. Help. :thwap

Hey everybody. My dad plays the drums and I play bass guitar and we jam all the time. My dad wears Heros High Fidelity ear plugs with cheapo Radio Shack ear muff style headphones also. I just normally wear the same ear muff headphones (I know, I should also be wearing the ear plugs too like my...

Saw this bass on-line and was wondering if anyone knows anything about these. The reviews of what I could find of it are pretty good. It is called a AXL APJ-820-CKBW ELECTRIC BASS GUITAR 4 String. Looks pretty cool with a distressed motif.

Been thinking about this guitar I found on E-Bay. It's a used Washburn T24 4 string for $240.00. What do you think? Good or bad buy? It's from a store and they supposedly have an on site Luthier who gave it his approval. These are the features: Stained mahogany body Maple/mahogany multi laminate...

Sorry if this has been covered before. I did a search on this site and found some topics about wall hanging your guitars. But I did not see any concerns about the weight of a guitar possibly harming the neck, or where it is joined to the body? This would be especially true with solid body bass's...

Thanks a lot for the reply. It makes perfect sense. I needed someone with experience to tell me what I suspected. I don't know much about guitars as I am a drummer. But my son plays bass, and this looked attractive for the price. But it looks like the damage is terminal. Thanks again.

$550.00 new Sam Ash. MSRP $850.00. $549.00 new on E-Bay. Saw a 5 string on E-Bay all knicked up go for $280.00. Its a Washburn Force 4, near the top of the line. Craigs list sucks in my area.

Thanks for the reply. I havn't seen it in person. Don't know if it is cracked thru, good question didn't think to ask that so I just asked. Havn't gotton a reply back. This bass retails at $600.00 new, Its a Force 4. No clue as to what I can get for it if I had to sell it again.

Hey. everybody. Need your advice about this Washburn Bass. Would it be worth it to get this? Or is this a lost cause? The pictures probubly don't tell the full story, and the one at the top looks like more than one crack, or a crack and the others are finnish cracks. Don't know how it happened...

I picked up a SX 4 string bass. Looks like a fender. Actually. it looks just like one of Geddy lee's bass's. Anybody know anything about this brand? Thanks.

Hi, I am new to the forum but would like your opinions about which brand of chorus pedals to get. I have narrowed it down to a Digitech XBC bass multi chorus pedal, or a Boss CEB-3 pedal. Thanks for the help in advance.
