    Ampeg PF-500 humming

    I always have had to use the pad. But I have an active bass and use a pre-amp.

    Ampeg PF-500 humming

    Use the xlr out on my PF-500 regularly and have never had this problem. Since it only happens on one board it sounds like it's the board, not the PF-500. You could try a different channel or a different cord but it seems like the common denominator is the Mackie.

    Is this bass blue and black or white and gold?

    3-space racks?

    You could always get a 4U rack and just put a blank, vented panel in it. Then you'll have room for when you want to add a tuner or compressor later.

    High School Woodshop Bass Build

    I find it's difficult to route the neck pocket after cutting out the body. After cutting out the body, the template doesn't have as much wood around it on all sides to support it and keep it stable. Sometimes this can lead to a neck pocket that isn't perfectly parallel to the front surface of...

    How many gigs did you play this year?

    I count 25. Which seems about right because our band tries to limit ourselves to twice a month.

    Veneer Top on JBass Body

    It was a bookmatched veneer (1/40"). The best way to do veneer supposedly is to use a bag and vacuum system. I didn't have one so I used a heavy 1-1/2 thick piece of wood on top with a bunch of clamps. I used veneer glue and wax paper on top so the wood on top didn't stick to it. It is true...

    Awkwardness

    I can't believe I just read 7 pages and never came across any singer/drummer babe pictures. Well, just the one where you can see part of drummer babe and part of former singer babe behind the carpetmunchers...
