Hello TB, I've narrowed my search down to MarkBass for a new Amp/Cabinet and I had a few questions for you current MB users. I'm looking at the Little Mark Tube 800 for the amp, but is there a difference from the tube 800 versus without the tubes? Obviously one has tubes and one doesn't...

I've got a bunch of recorded swell's if you are interested. I use BFD2 and adding my recorded swells works best. Let me know if you are interested. Tim

For the price the Mac Mini is the best solution. But, what is your budget? Tim

Glad you are enjoying the class, and thanks for sharing your thoughts after each day of instruction. I was supposed to be in that class, but something came up and I will have to see about jumping in on the next one. Thanks again and keep us posted. Tim

You can't go wrong with the Avalon U5. I'm not biased, either. lol Tim

What is your price range? Tim

"if anything"... nothing concrete yet and no particular reason. I do like the current bridge on it. Tim

:D I knew it was only a matter of time. :-) Tim

I've done a lot of reading and listened to several sound clips of people that modded theirs, but I don't think I will. Probably just the bridge, if anything. Going through my Avalon, I love the tone that I get and there is no reason to dump any money into it. If this tone isn't what I am...

Hey guys, I know they are millions of threads here on TB about SX basses, but I bought one a couple of weeks back and have been amazingly surprised by it. I haven't played a 4-string in about 10 years, but this thing is definately a sweet little bass for under $200.00 bucks. I will try to...

There is a thread on TB where Geddy's tech breaks down his setup. He uses an Avalon as well as a few other things in there. Search for the thread because it has a lot of good info in it about Geddy. On bassplayer.tv there is a video as well. Tim

Mics preferences are subjective and you have to figure out what mic works best for you. I personally would only use the 57's for instruments and the 58's for vocals, but that is just me. They say the only difference between the 57 and 58 (not the Beta's) is the screen - rounded versus squared...

Shure Beta 58A for vocals and a Shure Beta 57 or SM57 for the acoustic. Hope this helps. Tim Beta 58A http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Shure-Beta-58A-Mic?sku=270120 Beta 57A http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Shure-Beta-57A-Microphone?sku=270121 SM57...

I am right handed, shoot left handed and am left eye dominant. I am definately right handed. I play lefty because it feels natural to me. I'm not sure why, but that is the way I started playing 12 years ago and I just stuck with it. It was easier from a dexterity standpoint to teach my left...

Here's a pretty good interview with JB from back in June, 1981 in Guitar Player. I stumbled on it while searching for some transcriptions. http://www.lucaspickford.com/transintberlin.htm
