    Compare sizes visually!! No longer wonder how your gear will fit!!!!!

    "Bells and whistles" vs. "one trick pony"

    Bass Tone???

    Hey guys. I've been a part of tb for a while lurking here and there. I have a question I'm looking to find a good tone for Hip Hop/Rap. Any suggestions?

    Is this a profitable idea? Do you have Exp. With this? Please help

    I would not recommened it. I'm in the middle of a similar process and its too much of a hassle. Not to mention that people these days can get desperate for money, so you might have tons of people beating your price just to get money. That's been my case. Now people expect me to sell at that...

    hartke LH500 with other rack units?

    Didn't know where to post this but amps seemed like the best spot. I have a hartke LH500 which i love. But ive been thinking about getting some rack units maybe a compressor and a preamp. How would i go about connecting all this to my amp. Also any recommendations for gear would be appreciated.

    What cab w/ a Hartke LH500 do you use?

    Again you should check out their 210s. Also i had some of the best customer service. Made in America can't go wrong.

    What cab w/ a Hartke LH500 do you use?

    I use two carving 210s and a carving 115. And considering how good they sound and how unbelievably affordable they were, I'd say that there was nothing else out there that would have been better. Check em out!
