ive got a bit of money to spend and really want a fender strat but im not sure which one would give me a good blues tone but also gives good distortion when i want it.
any sugesstions much appreciated 
thanks
I have a fender active deluxe jazz bass and i recently took the strings off cause the bridge looked messed up. im taking it up to guitar center today for them to restring it. So my question is, what bass strings would be right for me? I have a jazz bass and i play mostly 70’s classic rock and slap funk.
I want to give my guitar a heavy metal sound so I can play songs from bands like
-Slayer
-Metallica
-Megadeth
But on my cheap fender i can’t get my guitar to sound like anything other than a tin can. (Even with max distortion it sounds too high pitched and very whiny. Its hard to explain.) Any reccommendations?
Please just answer with fender moderls and not with gibson and stuff.
I have a jazz bass and the pickguard doesn’t have holes for a pickup or bridge cover, but I was wondering if the bass itself would and I could just replace the pickguard or if I would have to get them drilled.
Well, my Fender Jazz Bass is all white, body AND pickguard. I think it would look amazing if i had a black pickguard with white body.
However, the only music store around here screwed up my last bass’ pickguard, so i don’t exactly want to go there again.
So basically, i just wanted to know if there’s anything i need to know before replacing the pickguard. ALSO, i need to know if there wires attached to the original pickguard.
Thanks Guys!!
Is it better to hold one constant and mess with the other to increase the “volume”. Thanks.
I own a blue fender standard jazz bass and a marshall 15 watt amp.and a crate 15 watt amp too.also i have some effects pedals.what are some amp settings i could use to make it sound like a g3? i don’t want to buy a gibsont’ Way to expensive.
I was wondering, because my friends Fender Standard Jazz bass look fugly with the black w/. white pickguard and I was wondering how hard/expensive it would be to replace it with a black pickguard?
I just bought a MIM Fender Jazz bass and the neck pickup doesn’t work, its brand new straight from the factory and it doesn’t work.
HELP?
