    Have You Ever Forgotten Your Bass?

    Forgot the head for my amp for an outdoor gig last year, lucky for me I was early and it was close. Starting to consider loading the BA115 I rehearse with as a spare.

    Ibanez BTB Club...for the lucky few who have them!

    Picked mine up about 2 years ago at Spotlight Music in Fort Collins, CO. Didn't even know what they were, I'd been away from playing due to career, family, aged mother living at home. Auditioned for a band, got in playing a borrowed axe. As a former Fender Jazz owner, I figured I'd get one...

    What is your biggest bass regret? (sale or purchase)

    no purchase regrets Bought a '71 Fender Jazz in high school. After college I was so broke (had a night job...couldn't play music) I sold the Jazz for $150. Oops. I also sold my Ampeg V4-B for $600

    What to pick: Sansamp BDDI x Sansamp VT Bass?

    depends on whether youre running into the pa or not. The DI box gives you that capability to go from unbalanced to XLR out or send an unbalanced sig to the PA. If you just want tone, buy the VT bass.

    Tendonitis - Please help, depression setting in...

    See if you can get your doc to give you VOLTAREN gel. It's a topical steroidal that I use. I have arthritis in my left thumb and use it before every practice or gig. It helps, and it's non-invasive. Otherwise, see a hand specialist.

    Personal Stage Monitors

    If there's an existing thread forgive me, couldn't find it. We're torn between in-ear or using small personal stage monitors, like the Roland CM 30 or the Galaxy Audio system of small powered monitors on the mike stands. My concern is for my drummer. Does anyone have experience with these...

    Behringer amps?

    We have a Behringer PA and are having issues with both the PMP 5000 head and the B215 cabinets. The head literally had seven connections that weren't connected at the factor. Now the output for one channel (powered) keeps cutting out. The speaker almost new was rattling, opened the cab, and a...

    Gaillen-Krueger Amp;4x10

    Just got one last month...RB 700 with a NEO 410 cab. Blew a speaker on the first cab (it had been on the demo floor), got a replacement...the band I just joined calls it "first class gear". When more gig money arrives I may add the NEO 115. I love the RB 700 head, much better tone and...

    DigiTech RP500 - Long

    Just switched back to playing bass in a rock band, and play lead guitar in a church praise band, so the RP500 is a great unit for me. I find the effects to be much better than previous RP units (I had a RP150), better sound by a large factor. Picked mine up for $260...it's all I need. I only...
