This just made me think of something else. I also have a BBE 31 band EQ (maybe it's overkill, but I can hear a difference, and it looks cool) and an Alesis 3630 compressor that I run through my effects loop. Will sending the pre EQ signal bypass these units too? I'm pretty sure it will, in which...

Thanks for the advice. I play in a band where I'm more of a "lead" bassist, so I didn't want to be given the generic bass treatment. Good points though. I think I'll go pre next time and see what happens. The sound guy didn't have a problem with me this past weekend though. One more question. My...

I've been reading the thread on the Amp FAQ about DI, but it wasn't totally on this topic so I wanted to ask you guys. When you DI into the PA at a gig, do you send the pre or post EQ signal? I really like the sound I have right now. Will sending the signal pre EQ mess that up? Or will sending...

Ah, I meant to type lift in the title...hopefully people still know what I mean. I have a very quiet rig, due partly to my power conditioner and noise gate, plus my Epifani is also near silent. I have a question about the ground lift switch on the back of the amp. What does it really do? I know...

I'll take it anywhere as long as it sounds like that!

So I played 2 gigs on my Eden D410XLT this weekend, and combined with my Epifani PS600, my bass has never sounded so good. Everything cut through the mix like a knife (which is good and bad...) Here's a video from the one gig, which was called Zombie Prom. Everyone was dressed like zombies...

Yeah that wins. Haha.

It just arrived at my apartment! Can't wait to get home from work and then go to practice! :)

Those upper strings just disappear! Those are the nicest basses I've ever seen...

Sweet, lovin that bubinga. Yeah, the walls are pretty cool. I was a bit sad to cover parts of them with carpet, but it definitely sounds better. There's a stage in there too that you can't see. We had to rip half of it out so that our drummer could play without moving the whole thing back and...

Nvd, are you playing a Cirrus?

It's not how many watts you have; it's how you use them.

I don't have any pictures...but here's a video with some shots in it. The guy who rented our space before us liked to get high and draw all over the walls, so we inherited that. :)

Is the music biz really talking about you? I'm in an original metal band, and one thing I've learned is that there's nothing wrong with working your way up. You don't need to be a "breakthrough artist" right away. If you're lying or stretching the truth people aren't gonna trust what you say...

I don't know if he does GK's but email Glenn at Bass Specialties. It's in Bensalem. Devoted to bass! If you don't know about it or haven't been there I'd strongly recommend it. Link Removed
