Very nice collection of basses, @joeike . . .
The blue Fender is my favorite
Cheers, Joe
Ah . . . yes! That’s a great looking bass, @Hondo Did it come stock with the Babicz bridge? Gibson was putting them out for a while on the SG’s but they stopped.
Cheers, Joe
Agreed. I love the satin blue finish and it sounds great!
Agreed @jazmo1999. There’s something about a natural finish on a bass that really appeals to me.
I like this one ! very cute little thing. even if I’m not a big fan of black instruments in general, I like the shape and proportions of those Talmans.
@Jazzbass19 thanks! Yes it did. I had another bass picked out, and was thinking eventually I’d want to upgrade the bridge and tuners, and the Gibson came with what I would’ve picked. Seemed like a no-brainer lol. And I really like her sound. Good pickups.
Here is the bass i bought 2 weeks ago its a specter , i set it up and intonated it , and it feels and plays great .
I was looking at maybe grabbing a Fender Rumble 100v3 or the
Orange crush 100 combo , i watched some youtube videos on both , i think i like the fender a little better , does anyone have either of these amps, that can say how they like it, im trying to spend low , but im building a music room in my basement and want it to be amp enough to jam with, thanx
Yes, I have the Rumble 100 and there’s a whole thread on that, @PeeZee63
It’s a great choice because it’s lightweight, simple, and could be used for gigging in a small venue.
Welcome aboard and see you around the Forums!
All best, Joe
thanx for the response , which do you have , and yes i will go check it out , im still trying to figure out how to forum
I have a Sterling short scale, a Fender Player JB, and a Thomann vintage series '75 JB. I’m really torn now between buying the Fender American Elite or a MusicMan. The color of your Elite is the one I’ve put on my wish list. How does it play?
I have the Rumble 100. It’s a really a super amp, suitable for mid-to-larger venues. The tone capabilities are exceptional and very versatile. The dang thing is the lightest bass amp I’ve ever had. This was a huge selling quality for me. I think you’ll really like the 100. Good luck.

Thank you , i guess after a few more posts i will get the hang of it . Technology can be great , but sometimes the simple things in front of your face , confuse us the most .
