Hi everybody, am I mistaking or prices of Steinberger USA guitars model have fallen? I had a look recently at musicyo, and remembered a few month ago you've to...
Well, that was a good Steinberger story. Only 65 wide fives? That's not enought to go around, to say the least. I've noticed that Ford sometimes offers stuff...
Hey Dudes, Happy New Year to all. Andy, what are you trying to say about the Scots? No really, AWB were pretty funky, which goes to show you can't judge a book...
I've always loved fretless basses and for years thought that a Pedulla Buzz was the only way to go. I found a used one on eBay and was in heaven with their...
... MusicYo did drop prices a while ago. But the price you recall was for a TransTrem equipped model, not one with an S-Trem. When they get TT's back in...
... Guess I wasn't clear. I was able to replace the washer easy enough and get it to work. There are two of them in there, and a similarly sized bearing...
I recently saw an episode of "Trucks" which showed the new Chevy SSR retro pickup (think of a more manly PT Cruiser) which comes with a custom matching Les...
... Don't know anything specific on this, but the pre-CBS Fender custom colors were also car colors, straight from the color book of the paint manufacturer ...
... upcharge ... fretted ... all ... I've seen this phenomenon more than a few times on retail prices lists. I still can't understand how not cutting slots and...
... Hey, the electric bass was predated by the upright acoustic bass for centuries. No frets, no lines, and often no markers either. Guys who played those...
Welcome Steve, Another Oregonian on board! While I am through and through a Duck, I now teach at the institution that serves as your Yahoo namesake. If you're...
I must take umbrage. I owned a purple sparkle finish GMT-7 for many years, and stupidly sold it last year. It is somewhere in cleveland at the moment. It came...
... Corvette yellow would be a fair enough description if you didn't know any better. But the story on the Ford colors comes directly from Debbie Orsland, the...
Anything that requires a change in the production line is added work and costs more. If the line and production process are set up to handle fretted...
... I prefer the look of an unlined fretless as with my Warwick 4 string, but I rely on the dot markers on the side of the neck. They start at the first fret...
Hi all. I just purchased a XP-2 and love it. I have looked at all the photos that I can fiend but nothing has helped. On my XP-2 There is a strap button in...
Hey Steven, Nice to hear from another Oregonian! Kind of ironic: a Duck that teaches at OSU and a Beaver who lives in Eugene. Thanks for your welcome, the...

Chiming in: I have a fretless white lined XL-2 that sings!! I bought it used in '89 or so in Dallas. I've been using round wounds on it since I got it, and...
Simon: Aesthetically, I prefer the clean, unlined look of a fretless bass over the lined look, but aesthetics don't count for much when you're playing all the...
Hi Steve, I still live in Eugene myself. I bought my '84 XL2 from McKenzie River Music when it was still near campus. I also own an NS Design US5 EUB (I...
... True, you have a point. And there's no way I'm accurate to more than 90%. But then I like the challenge. I played an old Jazz bass that had been converted...
Steven, Thanks for the tip on the strings. If you don't mind me asking, what exactly is wrong with the Music Yo strings? I don't know much about the...
This might sound weird, but I've found that traditionally I play unlined fretlesses more accurately. It's kind of a use the force type thing. The lines just...
