    How is everybody?

    Hey all! It really has been a while since I last logged on here, although I do pop by to read every now and then. I can't blame Facebook as much as law school and work, both of which I really enjoy. I still get to play my fretless Corvette in a few jazz groups and that bass is still pretty...

    Piezo saddles

    It probably is a question of tension then. How would you adjust the bass to compensate?

    Piezo saddles

    I am the original owner and it is from 2006, so clearly no warranty :P I've just restrung the bass with roundwounds and the piezo works fine on all strings. Should the piezo be able to handle nylon strings?

    Piezo saddles

    I can get sound out of all the strings, it just requires placing my fingertips on the saddle. I doubt there is anything broken, as it worked perfectly with the roundwounds I took off it yesterday...

    Yep, there's sound when I tap or even just place a fingertip on the saddle; it's pretty weird!

    Piezo saddles

    Hey all! I've just strung my $$ with GHS black nylon strings and can only get sound from the E-string through the piezo pickup. This is a problem I've generally had with all strings that was easily solved with a bit of adjustment of the saddles. This time however, there seems to solution...

    Half Rounds on a fretless ...?

    I've had D'Addario Half Rounds on my fretless Corvette and they sounded pretty good; much brighter than flatwound strings. And they don't tear up they board too much, but then again I play with round wounds and they barely do anything to the ebony

    Trujillo's a hero. Jaco content.

    I actually just logged on to put up a link for it... :P Thanks Robert! I read an article some years back, in Bass Guitar Magazine I think, where Robert and other "non-jazz" bassists explained how much of an influence Jaco was on them.

    What has happened to Hellborg's bass?!

    Here is Rob Allens take on it: "What does the f-hole do? The more rigid a bass body is, the cleaner and more pure the tone. As the body becomes less rigid, it offers more warmth and overtones, and general complexity. In the case of Mb-2 & Mouse 30 basses, adding the f-hole with soften the...
