In my endless efforts to make the rest of my hair fall out: I have designed a new live rig that splits into a stereo output at the beginning of a pedalboard, goes through two different sets of effects, then to a stereo mixer, stereo amplifier, and finally to the speakers (a 2x10h cab and a 1x15h...

I don't think you're understanding the problem. There is a significantly loud amount of white noise coming from whatever speaker the amp is plugged into. you can NOT control the volume of the white noise, and it's not that natural 'speaker noise.' It sounds like a T.V. channel set on static with...

I just bought this amp (h*ll of a deal)... and a set of Bogner speakers 2x10 and 1x15 cabinet. When I hooked it all up, I got this obnoxious 'white noise' like... when you used to turn on an old TV to a channel without signal. I took the amp out of the rack and hooked it to another cabinet I...

Invalid Link Removed Hey, I signed my band up for this thing, and we are actually cruising along with votes, if you have a minute, go there and throw us a vote! I'd really appreciate it! We got some of our tunes on there from the upcoming album, and pictures and all that happy crap, so...

I bought this amp after seeing it at the local music store and playing around with a bit. It's loud enough for monitor usage, and it has the XLR output for playing live. Having such a small amp reduces stage volume, and really gives a lot more control to your main speakers. Once I got it home...

Link Removed Brought it home and dusted off the old Ampeg V2 tube amp... and giggled with bliss and happiness at the way it sounds! I love this bass

woo hoo!! glad i could be a part of this epic record breaking day

that's why I learned to cook myself!! haha

Fender Jaguar.. you can do anything with that bass.

That's a good concept... just trying to mimick every day sounds. I think it's in Jeff Beck's album 'You had it Coming' there's a track called black bird that explores such a concept. Or get all Tom Morello with it and make that bass do things it "shouldn't" be able to do!

Hate to say it.. but you gotta dig Katy Perry.. that chick has some pipes!! My band does a grunged up version of her song Last Friday Night...

I've found when I come to a dead end, it's best to go back to the things that got me into playing bass.. which in my case is Wooten, and Cliff Burton, Billy Sheehan etc. etc.... Sometimes you'll realize there are things you missed.. and other times you'll realize that you've come so far from...

I gotta agree with dlenaghan. Like knowing how to form words into sentences and explain things to someone in a manner that they get it... Music is a language, Note's are like words, and musical phrases are like sentences. There's so many different configurations to get out whatever idea you're...

Squier Jaguar Vintage modified (PJ setup). $200 bucks, I gig with the thing regularly!

I work for the city of Williamsport, PA, Running street sweepers, painting things, picking up leaves with a giant leaf sucker truck thing.... fix things, break things... I wish I had a job playing music, that'd be the best! But, my job isn't bad.
