I get post gig depression but not all the time. Music is supposed to be a way out of life and a way of doing something fun but i always find myself depressed afterwards if someone does something to try and mess it up, usually if the Drummer isn't being a team player. Maybe there is a band issue...

We're a young band so we don't really get stuff that's too outrageous however we spotted one guy in the audience who was obviously off his face with some kind of hallucinogenic because he was running around chasing lasers from the stage lighting system and trying to pick them up and eat them...

Thanks everyone.

Hi Tb :). Need some help and advice regarding running and extension cab off of a Combo amp. (I apologize in advance for my terrible electronics knowledge) The Amp i currently use is a Hartke 210C (Not the 5210 with the LH Series head built into it). The guitarist in my band has gone and got...

Thanks so much everyone :). I shall have to get researching :P

Hello TB :) Name says it all really :P. Does anybody know of any decent Overdrive/Distortion pedals?. I play alot of Rock and Metal and i use a 500K PBass with distortion to get a Frank Bello kind of sound. Currently use a Hartke 210C however its looking likely my next amp is going to be a...

Brilliant :D. Thanks everyone :)

Hey Talkbass :). Do any English users know anywhere that has a large selection of amp heads and cabs that are for sale but have a store where you can go in and try some?. The closest thing to this i know of is Dawsons but they only seem to stock Marshall, Hartke, Ashdown and Orange. Even...

I was in a similar position to you and i was using a P bass, I was trying to get an agressive growly sound that had was thick and had some brightness to it. I used a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder with a 500k Volume and Tone pot. I can send you an Audio Sample or a link to a youtube video or...

Thanks :). This may seem like another dumb question but is the issue damaging in any way? Its just ive got a gig coming up and i wanted to use the P but obviously, i dont want to damage it more by using it with this problem. Sorry for being such an Electronics Noob :P

Hi Talkbass :) I recently finished a series of modifications on a Squier P Bass and one of the modifications was the fitting of a new Seymour Duncan SPB3 Quarter Pounder pickup. The guitar itself sounds brilliant but the bass has a bad earthing issue which seemed to trigger itself at a gig 4...

I have an SPB3 in a Squier P bass with 2 500k Pots w/ Tone Bypass and a Badass II. It sounds Amazing xD Super Bassy with a little agression and a crystal clear high when the tone pot is at 0 and when turned to 10 its agressive and powerful with plenty of bite and a nice D.D Verni sort of Treble...

By this i mean, a bad stage with bad equipment provided with a non existant audience and rubbish soundman. Yeah i know we arent exactly going to be playing the O2 Arena but seeing as we had to drive halfway to Birmingham to do this gig while their are plenty of other bad gigs where we live to...

Thanks Everyone :). Everything you say helps me to get what just happened into a better perspective. Its safe to say ive learnt my lesson (Lessons) well. :bassist: As for the guitarist part its not that simple. Me, the rest of the band and "Management" are going to sit down today and have a...

So yeah, I suppose this is venting but i know that getting it out will help me and there are lessons to be learnt from this story that may benefit somone. Im in a 4 peice rock band called Interception (Theres a badly posted hyperlink to our Facebook page below, make your own judgements, We...
