Sign in to disble this ad
Just joined this talkbass thing a few weeks ago and gotta say...
THANKS
Ed Freidland- for some great reviews and knowledge
Jimmy- despite your rather perplexing and undying devotion to all things Ampeg, you are always helpful and kind and keep things on the sunny side
Hasbeen- for all the help and advice
Svtb15- Same as Hasbeen...great to hear a working pro who speaks from experience
Pacman- For your vast knowledge of music
There are of course others, but these are a few names that come to mind
NO THANKS
To all the humorless, smug types that just can't wait to scold and belittle people who don't know as much as they do.
No thanks to all the way too used, meaningless terms like describing music you don't like as 'harmonically static,' or the seeming inability to discuss amps without throwing in a comment about 'PA support.' These weird buzz words catch on for some reason...PA support? Really? I travel with a soundman, but I pick the best amp for as many conditions as I can...small clubs, outdoor fests...what in the world could PA support have to do with choosing an amp?! Hah! Not sure why that one gets to me...
On balance...great to be here!

So I'm new too but I feel as if I've been around longer then my member date. I just think that in big crowds of people there's always going to be some jack *****. The good news is there's more good people on here then the other kind.  |

Either way, good to have you here! My suggestion is that no matter what people tell you on TB, blaze your own trail--97% of the things that get discussed here are subjective anyways. The other 3% is a general consensus that Jaco could, in fact, do it with four strings  |

The reason for this phenomenon is that static cling actively underpowers the framistans in your PA support. Really, you should have learned this by now. |

On the other hand, I'll be playing a show this weekend where PA support will mean vocals only, and I'm glad I've chosen a wonderful sounding yet very loud setup.
