@Rip Van Dan thanks for the incredibly helpful post! Yeah, I think I got a steal for sure. In searching the internet for information about the amp, I've come across several posts that discuss a mod to move the AC to DC converters off the board to lower the heat going into the board. Is that...

Always wanted an Eden and it finally happened! I saw this WT800A on Facebook Marketplace last week. Owner said it hummed after being played for no more than an hour. He assumed it needed to be repaired so I offered him $150 for the amp and it's now mine! I plugged this in and played it for about...

Snark Air. Works great on my Ibanez EHB bass, doesn't get in the way.

Swamp ash, I believe.

Here's my 1984 Fury that my mom bought me for Christmas that year. So many hours on this bass...

If you have a Harbor Freight close by they have 2 soldering stations available. I own this one and can say it works very well: Invalid Link Removed And if you want to spend a little more money they recently added one with a digital readout but I've never used this one: Invalid Link Removed...

I used MODEP (open source version of MOD Devices ported to Raspberry PI) live every week. No latency issues.

I personally would own any of the basses listed in this topic (I do own a Bongo) so I do like "whacky".

Here's my votes: Gibson 20/20 And the Stash

That is a nice looking bass! So happy to see that the "PJ" configuration still lives on. I have a Jackson with EMG PJ and they have such a distinctive tone. I'm also focusing on lightweight basses to relieve shoulder pain. I may have to check this out...always wanted to try a Spector.

No opinion on the amp, but I've always liked the songs from that album!

I'd be like: Hey, pyrotechnic guy...can you just turn those flames on full blast and leave them on? :)

Krappy Guitars is well known for their 2 string basses: Punk Basses

I got an EHB1005MS recently used at GC. I actually bought it more for the weight as my 10 lb basses were getting too heavy for my shoulder. I really like it! It's light, easy to play and sounds good. I am considering putting in an Audere preamp though.
