    How much speaker for a doom two piece? Bass and drums

    I think Hartke would be a solid choice. Lightweight, loud, and durable. From your choices, the Mesa 215 could bring the doom.

    One pickup for my new doom metal P-Bass? (TV Jones? Lindy overwound? G&L? DiMarzio?)

    Idiotbox Effects has a new Megatron Bass pickup that sounds intriguing and priced right. MEGATON BASS PICKUP

    Digitech Drop vs Digitech Bass Whammy

    I was very excited when The Drop first came out and I bought one immediately. I was disappointed because of the latency so I wound up selling it shortly thereafter.

    Anyone use a Boost Pedal before a Tube Preamp Pedal to get more drive?

    I used to run an Earthquaker Devices Arrows into a DOD 250 into a revolving door of fuzz pedals. The Arrows added plenty of boost and some fizz/sizzle which worked well in that particular band.

    Cracks in the neck, problem or no problem?

    The strings have been on there since 2017 which is when I bought the bass used. Never thought about cleaning the frets. Didn't even notice they were dirty until people mentioned it on this thread.

    Cracks in the neck, problem or no problem?

    Thanks for all the responses. Good to know splits in the poly finish/coating are nothing to worry about.

    Cracks in the neck, problem or no problem?

    No, not at all. The bass played and sounded just fine.

    Cracks in the neck, problem or no problem?

    I have a Lakland P-bass that hasn't gotten much playing time over the past 3 years. I took it out of its soft case today and noticed some pronounced cracks (or maybe splits/scratches?) on the neck that have gotten worse. I played the bass for about 30 minutes and didn't notice anything out of...

    Fart Pedal: MonoNeon Edition

    I'm not sure why everyone is making such a big stink about MONO NEON having his own fart pedal.

    Always On!

    DOD 250. Gives some boost and flavor crystals.

    Why do you practice?

    I practice so our band sounds good when we play live. I just practice songs. I've never practiced scales or other types of exercises.

    Single-Digit Club!

    I've had a total of 8 basses in my life, never have owned more than 2 at a time. I got my first bass in 1989 and my most recent one in 2019.

    Les Claypool and Geddy Lee on the South Park 25th Anniversary

    Just watched it this afternoon. The whole thing was really well put together, a fantastic musical production. Surprised more people on here aren't going crazy about the mini-Rush (kinda) reunion. And Geddy and Claypool sharing the stage.
