The Source Audio reverb is pretty good. I haven't used it personally but their demo on their YouTube channel sold me. Check it out if you haven't already. I have a TC Electronics Hall of Fame reverb. I like it and don't personally notice any low end loss, but I'm also not exactly drowning my...

My Wonderlove is on its way from Prymaxe now. Happy birthday to me! Will post pics when it gets here. :D

This. If I had the money for one, I would definitely be springing for it. I just can't justify it...not like THAT has ever stopped me from buying gear. :D

Funny I find this post...I just had a friend that I can relate this to. Last semester, he wound up failing out of school and taking the following semester off. He really isn't into the whole "living at home" idea and, obviously, had some self esteem issues that followed. He played computer...

I'm looking at buying a GK Neo-212II and 112II to go with my SM6.0. Can anyone chime in with GK/GB experience? I'm looking for a 212 that's got some mid range to it, although I don't know much about cabs so this is basically starting from scratch.

Thanks! This amp rocks, even through headphones...

Can I get a number as well? Forgot to ask for one. :)

FedEx dropped this off right before I went to my night class. Sadly, I won't own any speakers till Labor Day (broke college grad...afford what I can when I can haha) but when I do, I'm probably going to mix it with a GK Neo-212II and a 112II.

I'm so pumped for that DI you have no idea. I was just in the market for one a couple days ago and your post reminded me that I need to just wait till this one comes out. I think the line in/headphone out features on it alone make it awesome.

I'm certified! I love scuba diving, mostly night dives. I've got an Open Water certification though, so nothing too advanced, but there's tons of cool stuff to see diving. If you get a chance, do a night dive as well as a day dive. You'll see so many different things it'll amaze you.

I mute the lower strings on my bass (B & E strings when using a 5, E otherwise) with my forearm when I slap the A and higher strings. It took a bit of practice but I find this is the most effective way for me. YMMV of course.

+1 Keep a bottle in my cabinet just for myself. Great whiskey.

Wow, this is a ton of information. I guess I need to just start practicing. Does anyone have a good way to practice the modes of any given scale? Or any tricks you use to remember how they sound?

No, It's only that double stop that's being looped. I don't think my solo is in E. Man I'm terrible at this lol I've got almost no clue what I'm doing.

I'll start by being blunt: the modes of the major scale have been something in music that have just confused me regardless of how much research I do on the subject. I understand how they relate to the major scale and that they all provide different tonal centers for soloing. What I do not...
