    Just saw Marcus Miller live. Still playing his old J... No Sire (Pics included)

    I saw him on Sunday in Houston. Just his Fender, fretless MM, and the camel instrument. It was his birthday, so that was pretty cool. Oh, yeah, he totally killed it. Blast was my favorite part of the set, it was beyond words.

    Hartke Bass Attack Mod

    Has anyone figured out a modification to the Hartke Bass Attack pedal that ups the gain? Perhaps mine is a little weak, but I was wondering if anyone has tried to boost this up a bit.

    Les Claypool/Duo de Twang

    Opening Act: Reformed Whores They singled me out in their song "Southern C*mfort", and told me they had a big bucket backstage for my..."comfort". Very Primus-like in their humor. I enjoyed it, and so did everyone else. Main Show: Duo de Twang. My first Les Claypool experience, and...

    Craigslist Squire P Bass for $450

    [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Check out the headstock decal. But don't try to haggle, he is a seasoned musician, he knows what he is talking about... :rollno:

    Confession Time: Admit How You Are Different From The Bass Player Norm

    I went to a 5 string, and can't seem to live with anything less now. I love using effects of all kinds. I feel that if the bass isn't heard as clear as the other instruments, then what is the point? I want to start a hard rock/metal version of SMV. Thunderbirds are ugly, strats are...

    MXR M-80 distortion settings...

    When I first got it (as a gift), I didn't like it that much. Added a little extra to my passive bass, but I NEVER liked the distortion circuit. And then one day, I just liked it. Weirdest thing ever, I can't really explain it. It is in the top three of my distortions/drives, with the Hartke Bass...

    Acoustic 260 Micro. My review

    Got the acoustic today on clearance for $99 at the local GC thanks to the Mark II versions of Acoustic amps being launched. I couldn't pass it up. :smug:

    Fender Bassman 10

    Well, I am glad somebody realized I posted this in the wrong place. I'll try not to do this again. And yes, it is the silverface 410. JTE, I appreciate the info and the solid advice. As a Fender dealer, or any other dealer for that matter, were there any amps that particularly impressed you...

    Fender Bassman 10

    The local music shop has quite a few, but I haven't had the time to try one out. Research hasn't produced a lot of good sound clips, or advice on these amps (probably because I should've done this first). My question is if anyone has any kind of experience with these. Anything beyond what I've...

    5 string advice...

    I can also testify to the Jackson JS3V. It is especially good for the price.

    NBD: Jackson JS3V

    Got mine in December, but in Silverburst. I must say, it plays quite dreamy:bassist:
