Bill's Shop: Projects, Mods & Repairs / NEW PICKUP?
« on: November 16, 2010, 04:29:29 PM »
Need some help please, I've been wanting a p bass for awhile but just can't find 1 the gets me. So was wondering can I use my non reverse tbird? Its a epie, with the p/j pick ups, can I just buy a new p pick up, thinking 1/4 pounder, n wire it up like a p bass? doing away with the jazz pick up wiring and just leave the pick up in place? Would this give me a p bass sound? And if so, how would I do it? Or am I just wasting my time? Would I be better off buying a p bass? Thanks

My neighbor comes over friday, says he's seen me playin guitar and want to know if I want one he found up in his atic, said he forgot all about it tell he was cleaning it out.  I don't know what brand it is, its a copy of a ESP/LTD F modle for sure but holy crap! This thing acts like a active bass, volume knobs, just hardly turn em and wow! Tone knob the same way! And no its not active, I looked. But this bass is twice as loud as any of my others, I think I scored!
 What you all Think of her?

Help!! Was practicing tonight and we thought we knocked something loose on the wall, or in it. after looking and checking we figured out it was my amp, somthing is vibrating from the inside of my amp when I play open e string or the 10th through the 12th frets on e string. Its bad and way loud! Its an old Peavey markVIII amp. Any ideas or thoughts on this? Hope it aint going south on me. Thanks.

just got a 210 alumabass cab, copper colored aluminum cones, sounds amazing with my 410 madison! Best of all it was free! Anyone know anything about these things? can't find much on the web, know they are out of buissness. Not sure why, this thing is heavy, built like a tank. and like I said sounds amazing. Any info? Thanks

Hi, new here but must say seems like you all know your stuff, so my I ask for some help? My old amp quit on me and I need a new one. Found 2 in my price range but don't know anything about them. Can I please get your thoughts on them? 1st is a peavey bass mark viii series, its 350 watts @ 4 ohms. Its used. 2nd is the hartke 2500, 250 watts @ 4 ohms, its new. Have a 2x15" cabinet that I use. both are going for $250.00.  what are your thoughts? Oh ya, no gigs just home playing for now, still learning. Thanks for any feed back
