    NOS 1960's Hyland Bass rig $300/BO

    In case anyone may have a slight interest, I just got back home from picking this amp up. I'm definitely happy to give this strange little thing a home, it's a nice conversation piece. I took the back panel off and there is next to zero dust inside aside from the negligent coating you would...

    Trusted brands for new power amps/powered mixers?

    Rocked it last Friday, I'd say it worked fairly well. Still deciding on whether or not I'd like to keep the mixer... not too thrilled about seeing all the surface mount components through the vents, I'd prefer something that I could service almost entirely myself (that's why I spent big bucks...

    Trusted brands for new power amps/powered mixers?

    Thanks again for the comments. I've decided on the Yamaha EMX512SC mixer with S115V speakers. This will be getting a good test drive this Friday so I'll be able to see how it performs well within the limits of my satisfaction guarantee. The Yorkville mixer looks great, I almost made the...

    Trusted brands for new power amps/powered mixers?

    Thanks for the comments. I am also taking into consideration the common fact that most people either don't admit or aren't aware of how much they abuse their gear, so some reviews need to be taken with a grain of salt. I've known of people who consistently drop equipment or set their drinks on...

    Trusted brands for new power amps/powered mixers?

    Hey folks, I've been reading many reviews on powered mixers, and one thing I've been noticing are comments regarding formerly trusted brands coming out with brand new products that are much more poorly manufactured than previous lines. I've been looking for a good powered mixer that will...

    Anybody into the band SAGA?

    need to chime in on this one... maybe 4 or so years ago i heard this again on some retro-80's show on the radio and i immediately remembered this song from my early childhood. i've never ventured into any of their other songs but "on the loose" is such an amazingly fantastic song. it gives me...

    The Mediocre Bassist Club.

    i definitely belong here, if not a step lower. nearly 20 years ago i started out as a very promising bass player, until i found my true musical calling of slow plodding riffs.
