    Double Bass Audio Technica ATM 35 Question

    i love this mic but hate the cli- and gooseneck. what i did was order the longer, beefier gooseneck with a screw-on mount, and now i can get the mic right to the spot you mentioned without worrying about it falling off. about 80 bucks but if you really love the mic it’s worth it. it’s my poor...

    Double Bass Configuring for teaching Zoom lessons--help needed

    I've longed to be able to use GB in the setup somehow. Blackhole looks promising. I'm just looking to be able to demonstrate stuff to students using a rhythm section or playing to a track. Really helpful man. thanks..

    Double Bass Configuring for teaching Zoom lessons--help needed

    I've been on JK for a while with mixed results. so far i haven't decided to pay for a plan. when it works, it's ok. i don't need to do a lot of synchronized playing with students, and their level of tech savvy is not esp high. it's looking like sending folks prerecorded mp3s of what i want them...

    Double Bass Configuring for teaching Zoom lessons--help needed

    Yup. I think I may need to readjust expectations. I know playing together is all but impossible. it was more for having the student being able to listen to a track while i demonstrated. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something everyone else has been doing already. Gonna be a...

    Ever seen this? JB wiring looks weird

    yeah i'd love to know how that happened. i got the bass about 20 yrs ago and have had new wiring installed by a great shop in nyc around that time. sounded great when i got it back and i got really nice tracks out of it over the years, which makes me suspicious that something may be up w the...

    Ever seen this? JB wiring looks weird

    thanks. now that i'm actually digging into it i see that the third wire from each p/up hole is a ground that connects to a plate within each pickup location. i sent for the stewmac prewired template, but that doesn't account for the control cavity ground plate. unless i'm missing something. the...

    Ever seen this? JB wiring looks weird

    hey i finally got around to rewiring my 74 jazz and when i looked onto the control cav i saw this. i was hoping to see a black and white lead coming from each p/u (like every other diagram i’ve seen) and one ground wire to the bridge. p/ups are allegedly fralins, but i think one of them is going...

    Why didn't the Fender Roscoe Beck become popular?

    Lots to love about the RBV. It’s like a Swiss army knife on gigs. Totally dig the Jaco preset, never have missed separate vol controls. love the humbuckers, but wish the output were hotter. never liked the gotoh bridge and eventually swapped it out with a badass, which totally cleaned up the...
