    Best headphones for bass?

    I have the Sennheiser HD280 Pro's, got them in 2019. Love the comfort and the sound, but one of the channels has gone out so get no sound in left ear. Is this a situation where it's cheaper to buy a new pair, or to repair? New one's are only $90 at Amazon, so hard to believe it's worth...

    How to tell what year my SWRs were made

    Definitely pre-Fender since it’s SWR Engineering.

    SWR Collectors Thread

    Did you ever find an extension cab? I was lucky to find one a couple months ago... cost me $525 which many would call insane, but due to it's rarity and the awesome sound, it's worth every penny and more!

    SWR Baby Blue 1991 (original) - repair

    Thanks for providing this! Now, my question is: I have an early Baby Blue 2x8 (NOT the Baby Blue II, which came a couple years later). Would this schematic work for mine, or would it be different? If different, does anyone have that? My BB original is from 1990, this schematic is from 1999...

    SWR Fan Club II

    Finally found a Baby Blue 2x8 +5 Monitor to compliment my Baby Blue combo amp. It totally ties the gig together (in the parlance of our times). And, damn it sounds so good! Anyone else rocking a similar setup?

    How to tell what year my SWRs were made

    So, I just got a Baby Blue 2x8 (not a Baby Blue II). It has 340 0300. So if I’m reading this right, it was made 3rd/4th quarter of 1990, and it is #300 of all Baby Blues made? If so, that’s cool! Got it for $399 in excellent condition!

    SWR Fan Club II

    Thanks! I saw it posted as a new available item, and slept on it one night knowing that this seemed almost too good to be true (I've been watching and waiting for one locally for 3 years). Not sure why I waited that long to decide, but I'm sure glad it wasn't gone when I woke up and called the...

    Show me your compact pedalboard setup

    Put this one together (my first board). It’s a Gator small aluminum board… super solid! Came with Velcro that seemed pretty weak so found some Dual-Lock at Home Depot. Like it so much I ordered off for a Keeley Bassist Compressor to fill out the board!

    IdiotBox Cool Buzz Bass Fuzz "Badass bong rock bass fuzz"

    I have one of these, and although completely basic, and not a "solid" feel like a MXR or Boss pedal, the Spicoli graphics alone are worth the price of admission!

    But do I DESERVE a "nice" bass?

    Get the best you can reasonably afford... you'll play it more, and the resale will be better if/when you bow out of playing.

    But do I DESERVE a "nice" bass?

    Life is short... don't go into debt for it, but hell yeah, if you can afford it, GO FOR IT!
