    v-drums for finished album vs. live drums

    if you do go v-drums, it would be nice to capture the MIDI out so you have the option of using it to re-trigger real acoustic kit samples (or the vdrum module) and/or place hits on various parts of the beat, adjust velocity, etc...

    EMG PJ active pickups?

    I use that EMG config and it is awesome for articulate snap. Rock and roll baby! If you want thick blub blub - i.e. the blob, go the other way though.

    Ibanez WH10 wah - anybody?

    I have an original WH10 wah. I haven't used it with bass in a LONG time, but i don't recall it being so wonderful. Then again, I haven't tried many wah pedals with my bass. I sometimes use an auto-wah on bass though. the wh10 is great for guitar. Not my thing for bass however.

    Why Speakon?

    Speakons electrically handle much more current through the connection than 1/4" jacks. Not a big deal at < 350W, but with > 800W being more common place on bass amps, a speakon is almost mandatory (unless you can use banana plugs such as on rack power amps) for safety. 1/4" phono is an...

    Schecter Model-T ?

    I have a diamond series one. Stock they are not very impressive. However, I swapped out the pickups (duncan designed) with a set of EMG P J and put in the EMG preamp (forgot which one, but it has the bass and treble control stacked), and I kept the bridge and neck pickup volume knobs. It now...
