I don't understand putting in a 2/1 xformer in the power supply. That gives you either 240v or 60v, not 120v. So what are you doing, plugging the amp ...
That's 3 different B's on three different strings and 3 different frets. Sounds like some kind of sympathetic feedback from the distortion on the amp ...
Big question. CAGED is just one tool. I won't debate its pros and cons here, but I think you might want to consider moving on at some point. This is a...
Yes, it needs sealer coats, after the Keda stain. Usually wet sanding, many coats, but follow the instructions on the sealer label. Keda should be the...

None of the Epiphones have reversed threaded truss rods to my knowledge. Righty-tighty-convex, lefty-loosy-concave. I would take it to a qualified rep...
You never know what folks will change. If I were to change a lefty to a righty I might reverse the volume and tone controls, or put a righty tailpc/br...

The Squire J5 didn't have a tone control, just 2 volumes, 1 for each pickup. You have to either add another 250 ohm potentiometer if there is space (w...
Looks like an Epiphone. Try Gorilla wood glue. May have to add a couple short #10/24 bolts with 1/2" OD washers underneath, since there is so much dam...
It's in G.
If your bass is still under warrantee I would take it back to the store and have their tech look at it. It sounds to me like it's the truss rod.Sight ...
