Been a traditional bass player for 35 yrs and have not gotten into synth bass much. Always had a keys player to handle these parts. Now we are delving more into these old school sounds to replicate some 80’s tones such as Kenny Loggins Danger Zone and Michael Jackson’s PYT. Technology today has...

Awesome no I have not. I will check that out. Thanks for the tip!!

Okay I just picked up a very nice MIM Fender Jazz 5'er. I love how it plays and it will be a great back up for my '73 Jazz. However It does NOT sound like my '73 Or my MIJ Geddy Lee. I LOVE that sound. I'm looking for the USA Vintage Single Coil P/Ups and I looked on EBay craigslist, numerous...

I agree with everything you stated here. Everyone has a different situation and play either the same venue or many varying venues. It's definitely what works for the individual. What I love about TB is we can share our experiences and opinions about how we view all these issues and deal with...

I have 2 8x10's I use and when I have a small venue I use one. If the backline is the main source of sound for the mix, even if the volume is low, I get great punch and sound and I can EQ my tone to maximize punch, highs and lows at the lower volume. The big issue IMO is just the sheer size. If...

Hey Rezdog, I don't see Traynor down in GA. I've heard good things about those amps. I'll have to do some research. I like my Shuttle. U also have a MarkBass LMT800. I like a tone that cuts through very clear on the highs. How's that Traynor handle the high freqs? Also do you get any mud at...

I currently use the Genz Benz Shuttle 9.0. At 4 ohms I get 900 watts of power. With 2 8x10 cabs I can ay anywhere at any volume. The beauty of the amp is that it only weighs 4 lbs!! It delivers great tone and clarity.

Thanks I am doing that now. Starting to get a feel for how to navigate through the forums.

I could spend lots!!! I was unaware of how many effect pedals and boutique stuff is out there for bass. I don't play for a living anymore and have been in cover bands for a long time but it looks like im gonna be spending some serious coin. I'm diggin some of the pedals I've discovered so far. I...

Dude I have board envy.....I'm one of those guys who didn't use a lot of effects....I just bought the Crowther Audio Prunes and Custard I tried out and loved it. You guys obviously know your **** so I will ask. Whats the significance in the chain. Why do you put a specific box in front of the...

Thanks for all the info....I thought the Akai Sb-1 was what was used. I just ordered the Crowther Audio pedal. I checked it out on You Tube and definitely gotta have that. I appreciate the input. New to this forum and love it. I assume that it's the same effect on Hysteria as well? I primarily...

You guys are awesome. I'm just a humble Bass player that's been playing bass for a long time and now I just Play for the sheer love of playing. Yes I am in a cover band and we like to do each song we do justice. I have the luxury of a good income that allows me to buy toys for my rig and help...

I'm looking for an effect that can emulate what muse's bass player did on Uprising. The Akai SB-1 he uses I cannot find. Anyone know of a good effect pedal or board that will emulate that well?

Thanks guys for all the assistance. I'm diggin' this Talk Bass app. It rocks.....I am off to buy me some new cabs!!
