    New (to me) Amp Day: Carvin B500 w/ a Dr. Bass Cab!

    Thanks! It has a 15" speaker, and it has a tweeter. I really do like the speaker on this thing. The guy who showed me the amp swapped the Dr. Bass for a Markbass 15", and I preferred the Dr. Bass! If only he wasn't such a scumbag... :( I think I'll keep it. Sketchy business practices aside...

    New (to me) Amp Day: Carvin B500 w/ a Dr. Bass Cab!

    Got this at Guitar Center today for about $400. For my first giggable amp, it sounds fantastic. I know there's a lot of hate towards Dr. Bass for all the crap he did, but he sure makes some decent sounding stuff. Sorry for the crap pic, my iPod has a crap camera.

    Noob Question: Gain and Volume on an SS amp

    Can anybody tell me what the difference is between the gain and the master volume is on a Solid State Amp? I know that on a tube amp, the gain ups the volume to the preamp, so that you can get more of that tubey goodness, but is that necessary on a Solid State? Or do I just not know what I'm...

    Favorite Bass playing on an Album....

    You mean Gary Lee Weinrib. +10000 though. Geddy is one of the best.

    What Genre is this?

    I just wrote a new song, and am perplexed: What genre would this be classified as? [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Feedback would be appreciated by the way.

    Most awkward gig(s)

    Nothing bass related, but funny anyhow. My school's symphonic band makes a bi-annual field trips. Last year, it was to Quebec for three days, and a stop at Six Flags on the way home. Had an absolute blast, saw some amazing scenery, stayed in some comfy hotels, and put on two concerts...

    Thicker! Heavier! Lower!

    Do it. That would be the coolest sounding thing that I've heard in a while. If the guitards didn't complain.

    Wait, What?

    The next time I see some ignorant person say that Geddy Lee is under-rated, I'm going to ask them why this video has almost 30,000 views. Geddy Lee coughs - YouTube
