All my recent comments from the past several days seem to be "awaiting moderator approval". How does that work?

All my comments, even on threads I started, are marked as waiting for moderator approval. How’s that work? What is the typical wait time for having a comment approved?

@tluxtele thanks for the info, it aligns with my research on the topic. I’ll be using the little Fender Rumble as a practice amp for now.

I had one of these for a while. I almost wish I had not sold it - it will sound wonderful with Worth Browns.

How does the ”like” feature work? I don’t see any buttons to press.

I found a small bass amp for sale on FB. A older fender rumble 15. The seller was a good friends daughter! That will have to do for a while. I still need to eventually find my son a practice drum amp.

I’ve got a set of Worth high D‘s plus a Freemont Soloist on my Flight Phantom tenor. Its there in my avatar pic. I very happily tune it anywhere from low D to low F.

The Point. Oh geez. we showed that movie to my now twenty something kids when they were ten-ish. They have never forgiven us for that transgression.

I’ve been learning to play bass on my two UBasses. A Kala Scout (acoustic) and a solid body Kala SUB. It’s time, I think, to up the ante. I’ve been running the SUB directly into a small guitar amp set at a fairly low volume. That’s what I have, and has been sufficient while I learn the basics...

I’m looking for advice on a very quiet uke that I can connect a set of headphones to. I doubt if I’d ever need it for performances, which are rare. I used to have a Risa solid tenor stick, and I am not interested in that form factor. It sounded nice, and was great for travel, but it just...

I've adjusted the G string and the volume is a bit better, but it is still not quite as loud as the other 3 strings. I did find a thread on talkbass that discusses a possible solution (comment #14), but I'm not quite ready to try it...

A black Kala SUB UBass has come up for sale on craigslist very near me. I’m wondering if this model stands the test of time. How would it compare to, say, a Hadean solid body?

I’m considering purchasing a solid body bass uke to complement my acoustic Kala Scout. I’d want to put round wounds on it so as to get more of a standard electric bass sound out of it. My question is do I need to make modifications to the uke to do this. And if so, what? The Kala round wounds...
