If it was easy, everybody would be able to do it. It's not easy but, as we've seen in past posts, it can be done well. All I can say is you have to first be comfortable with your voice, its strengths, and its limitations. There are some songs that I would never try to sing even if I was...

I'm finding this thread to be quite interesting. The animosity is remarkable, but to be expected, given his position. O'Reilly is clearly now a "somebody" (for better or worse) but, when I knew him, he was a "nobody." He was a high school teacher in a small Catholic School in South Florida...

Wow! That was sweet!!

I'm using a rack mounted tuner along with the amp, a "a/c conditioner" and a wireless receiver. The in-ear transmitter is a possibility though because I think the time has come for me to begin using an IEM system. Thanks for the suggestion. :-)

I thank you for your responses. But with the loss of the eq, I've discovered an opportunity to explore new bass opportunities with the gap left in the rack. I really don't need to use it for ventilation because the entire back is open when I play and, when push comes to shove on those hot...

Yep, I do exactly the same thing. If I need to turn up it'll be on the bass guitar, not fumbling round with the amp.

My bass rack had a 1U slot open up this past weekend when my mono eq gave up the ghost. Right now I'm using a GK1001rb, a tuner, a power conditioner (a glorified ac strip IMHO), and my wireless receiver in the rack. I've never been much into effects but always try to keep an open mind. I'm...

There's a bass that looks like it could be a twin to the one in the OP on the Reverb.com auction site

I'm an attorney in my day job. What's up?

This was a genuine question. The back of the neck has a finish that seems different from my other basses. Thank you to those who replied, though. I guess I'll try to get an answer from the Fender folks. <><Peace

IMHO it looks uber-cool just the way it is. What mods do you have in mind?

I'm presently using a 2012 Fender Precision Select as my main bass while onstage. Unfortunately, I've noticed a problem that has made it less than enjoyable to use for more than 15 minutes at a time. Indeed, I find myself constantly cleaning the back of the neck between songs. In a nutshell...

I go wireless when playing live. My backup is wired and ready to go in case the "idgit" responsible for checking the unit's batteries (me) gets careless. I'm up and running within ten seconds of the wireless system going down. I also have a backup amp and cab on the truck in case of a...

Guess! lol

If this was not a hypothetical question, then the police should have been called immediately. Then the insurance carrier of the idiot's studio. No quarter shown, no mercy given. <><Peace
