    First-time Pedal Buyer

    Thanks for the advice. I think I'll just go to a music shop and try some different things. I'll look for the ones everyone mentioned.

    First-time Pedal Buyer

    So, It looks like I'll be making my first effects purchase soon. I'm not sure what to get. I want something under $100, nothing super high-quality. I'm not sure what brand I should get, or what kind (wah pedal, overdrive, or multi-effect). A little help for a newbie would be greatly appreciated.

    You know your a bass geek when.

    Double Bass Need Bass Recommendations

    Hey bassists! I need help finding a good bass for use by an orchestra student (me). I need something that is reasonably good, but under or close to $1000. I know that's a lot to ask, but maybe someone can help. If you know of a bass that fits these criteria, a link would be very much...
