    fix for too heavy basses!!( and maybe guitars)

    That is truly a hefty price tag for a strap( though it does look like nice leather), but the neo version that I have runs I think around $70. Still a pricey strap but it really has for me put 2 of my basses that I just do not want to stand up with back in the gig que.

    fix for too heavy basses!!( and maybe guitars)

    Thanks for posting the image. There seems to be three options for the extra strap. On a bass with a with an upper horn you can just loop the extra strap around the horn, or get that tensioned strap that runs from one to the other of the standard buttons, or you can install a flush mount strap...

    fix for too heavy basses!!( and maybe guitars)

    I just picked up a Gruvgear Duo strap for my gecko bass which is really too heavy for gigging purposes. At first I was not sure if I liked it but after some adjusting I love it. It spreads the weight of the bass over both shoulders and basically makes a very heavy bass feel like a light...

    non warmoth weissenborn converted for Indian music

    Thanks for the kind words guys!! Actually the tuning is pretty stable because there is not a traditional neck to flex and the attachment is rock solid so tuning one string does not really affect the others. It still requires some careful attention to tuning but not nearly as much as some of the...

    non warmoth weissenborn converted for Indian music

    I have been working on a converted weissenborn guitar set up to play Indian classical music, in the style of Vishwa Mohan Bhatt and Debashish Bhattacharya. For this I changed the main 6 string configuration to four main strings tuned C G C F and two drone/rhythm strings (called chicari strings)...

    My first Warmoth: Fretless JB, ebony/ebony with chambered walnut

    That is going to look sweet. I think you should be able to hide those little chips on the headstock pretty well ebony is forgiving like that. Speaking of ebony I have never encountered an all ebony neck what is the sound characteristic supposed to be?will it be brighter than maple, or about the...
