    Thanks for the specifics, Brian. Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. It's been a long week.

    Hi, Brian.

    Thank you for your concern. Everybody is alive and unhurt after their house was hit by a missile about 10 days ago. Thankfully they had just added a second story to the house about...

    I just bought an Ibanez AFB200 hollow body bass.

    It's a short scale at 30.3", but Ibanez says that medium scale strings are required. However, I am not finding very many choices (of any type) when...

    Thanks for the quick response. That is definitely the mark I was talking about. And my belated vote goes to the Sandberg. The Ken Smith is good looking, but that Sandberg in the link is a work of art!

    Paul,

    Yeah, me and my wife talked about it, and sinking $600 (neck, bridge, and electronics) into this guitar which cost less than $300, just doesn't make sense. I was already going to have a...

    I will take your advice about measuring the tuning machines. And I will also look around at some more pickups that use solder. I'm not in any great hurry, I'm just beginning to...
