    Living on a lighted stage...

    Clockwork angels spread their arms and sing; Synchronized and graceful, they move like living things. Goddesses of light, of sea and sky and land, Clockwork angels, the people raise their hands As if to fly... Too soon?

    Power Conditioner

    So I just bought this fantastic MXR Bass Fuzz Deluxe pedal which didn't come with a power conditioner. I searched the house to see what I could find and found one that is 9v DC and 500 mA. The pedal came with a note saying that it needs a 9v DC adapter with a minimum current rating of 20 mA...

    NAD Phil Jones Roadcase

    That GK in the back actually isn't mine, although I've played through it a handful of times. The GK is definitely a little louder, but not by much; although that can be hard to judge since the tweeter on the Peavy is a little blown and I have reservations about boosting the volume too much...

    NAD Phil Jones Roadcase

    Just got my Phil Jones Roadcase in and loving it; couldn't ask for more :hyper::bassist: It's super clean, it just sounds like my bass DIed, and the six band EQ is amazing. Clarity is fantastic and has great response, I've never heard all the nuances of my playing come through my amp so...

    Please check out our Facebook page - and POST YOURS!

    We're an original/cover band. We usually do our cover material acoustically and save our originals for when we're a loud obnoxious rock band. Though we definitely play a few originals during the acoustic sets and often play covers during our amped sets; whatever suits our fancy for the night I...

    Warwick Eye Candy From NAMM 2012

    Not a big wick fan or their NAMM 2012 showcase, but I'd thought I'd share a pic of the bass they gave Bootsy.

    Online Promotion?

    I should probably be more specific. My guitarist asked that we research two specific ways of online marketing (if we found others that might be successful he's also all ears). He wanted us to research mass messages on social network sites, which personally I'm wary of doing as I don't thinks...

    Online Promotion?

    So my band just finished our first album with a fantastic engineer/producer. We've finished all the mixing and mastering, and we're about to send the album off for printing. Now we were going to spend our money (well we actually have a budget given to us by a company who sponsors us) on...

    5 string fretless, 8 string multi-scale, 7 string (neck-thru's)

    Got a little progress done yesterday, but since I had to grab a fretboard as well yesterday from the lumber yard I didn't get everything done that I wanted. I decided on mun ebony for the fretboard. As you can see I also cut my body wings from my mahogany. We've also been waiting for a...

    5 string fretless, 8 string multi-scale, 7 string (neck-thru's)

    And the puns begin early! I managed to stop by the guitar shop today on my way back from school and grabbed a shot of the Alembic in all of its . . . lack of glory (along with my lovely lady). :rollno: :crying: The shop owner actually purchased it as a refinish project but later...

    5 string fretless, 8 string multi-scale, 7 string (neck-thru's)

    Thought I'd give a more in depth summary and post some pics since I was rushed last night cause the guys were having trouble being focused and posting things that were relevant. I've been lurking here in the LC for over half a year now so I'm excited to get building! So yesterday was my...

    5 string fretless, 8 string multi-scale, 7 string (neck-thru's)

    So me and my guitar buddies decided to buy some wood 3 months ago for some guitars and about a week ago we found a shop to build in at a technical institute. The guy who is in charge of the shop is one awesome dude and we have about four hours of shop time to work on Mondays and Wednesdays...

    Need Pickup & Pre Recomendation

    So I've had this old LTD B-155 for several years and I really need to replace the stock pups and, most likely, the pre; the bass sounds far too sterile for my taste (stock EMG pickups and a stock EMG pre). The bass sounds okay for heavier music, but really loses its voice in the mix regardless...
