    How to make very low tone distinguishable

    I didn't even occur to me than you could tune higher than standard E. How high can you tune before string tension becomes dangerous?

    How to make very low tone distinguishable

    I'm sorry if that was asked before, I tried to do a search but I'm not sure WHAT to look for. Simply put, I'm trying to play a cover of a song (Monuments - The Uncollective) and the tuning is low F standard (F-A#-D#-G#). The only way I can tune that low (without turning my bass into a bow)...

    I need guidance choosing an AMP (Searched around)

    Hi TB I need an amp, or two amps actually. I've been lurking the forums for a few weeks and I've search and read 5-6 threads on the subject but I still have some trouble making a choice. I am officially lost. There are too many choices and too many technical facts. So here's the deal...

    Hardest instrument to play?

    Harder instrument to master, or to squeeze out every last once of its potential: The Full Organ. It's also the biggest instrument. 6 Keyboards, One of which is played with the feet, 2 Huge pannels full of effects and 5 pedals. Good game. Invalid Link Removed

    New Bass, needs to be good for slapping

    I'm looking into slapping and the question of string gauge has arisen in my mind. I play dropped most of the time and so I bought thicker gauge strings, but I think, and I'm asking, if slapping sounds better with lighter gauge strings.

    Looking for a new AMP

    Hey guys, I'm looking for a new amp but I don't know the first thing about how to look for a good one. Right now, I have a crate 220. In my opinion, it's pretty good but when I jam with my band, I have to turn up the volume to hear myself and at that point, the quality of the sound changes...

    Guitar Pro 6

    Hey, so I bought Gpro6 because I was a big fan of 5. So far, it's MUCH better than GP5, the RSE is gigantic and allows for a lot of nice sounds. And that's my problem, there are so many amps, pedals and effects that I don't know what the f*** is going on. I'm looking for a setup for...

    Configuring my Amp and Bass for a very low, almost deaf, tone

    It's more for curiosity's sake. I usualy stick to drop D or drop C and I have my own setup but I wanted to know how they did it to play a cover. Anyway, this is the answer I got: =============== Those are just pre-production clips. But the key is to _turn the knob that says drive...
