Happy Birthday, No Treble!
Three years ago today, we officially launched this online magazine for bassists we call No Treble.
Over these three years, we’ve made many friends: almost 66,000 on Facebook, over 4,500 on Twitter, not to mention the countless bassists we’ve met at NAMM, at concerts and other places). This, without a doubt, is the best part for us here at No Treble HQ.
We’ve also now published over 4,200 stories, videos, columns, lessons, stories and features.
Today, I’m thrilled to be able to say that No Treble is visited by more than 100,000 people a month, who combine to visit a total of 200,000 times a month. And we’re showing no signs of slowing down. That’s a lot of bass!

Happy birthday, No Treble!

Happy Birthday No Treble! Keep up the brilliant work!
you guys have widen my musical horizon, for that I thank you…and keep up the great work… by the way one of my goals is to appear on you Artist Spotlight…one day.
Love to hear that @[631520690:2048:Bijan Hazrat]. Thanks for the kind words. We’ll be on the lookout for your bio for player spotlight too.
I first discovered No Treble quite by accident. I was hunting for articles on Marcus Miller and did the usual Google thing and ended up on No Treble. I read the article and the overall layout really impressed me. It was something just for us bass players. All aspects, too! So, I jumped in and I now make it a daily stop no matter what! I can say I’ve learned a lot and got to hear some great playing! Thanx for all, Corey and all those who make it happen! Hey, while I’m at it, let me share something I started doing which adds a nice effect. I went to Guitar Center yesterday and not only did I find my old Precision and buy it back (I hadda have it back) but I went on a pedal mission. I ended up with an MXR Phase 90. Took it home and hooked it up with my Marcus Miller Jazz and got some real dynamic sounds especially with ascending and descending runs. I’ve seen many players go for an envelope filter and other similar pedals. Even Chorus pedals. Wanted to try something different and I love it and can see the potential!
Happy Birthday guys!
