    Looking for more fretless bass songs

    I got a fretless bass a few months ago and I really love it, but I'm struggling to find songs to play. Any recommendations? The songs don't nessicarily need to be originally played on a fretless, just sound good on one or could be fun to play. Here's a sample of what I've been playing so you...

    Bass in a truck bed?

    Bass in a truck bed?

    Yeah, if it's raining or stupid cold out (gotta love Canada) then I try and squeeze it in the back seat of the cab. Never considered doing it with the bass in a gig bag, that seems a bit too tricky for me. But you've never had any issues?

    Bass in a truck bed?

    Had to take my truckto practice last night instead of my VW and on our way out after practice I put my bass in the bed and one of the guitar players saw and he looked at me like a had a second head. He's like "you're really putting that in the bed???" I never thought there was an issue, the...

    700 watt head into a 200 watt speaker

    I'll definitely look into it, but not sure if it's worth the expense.

    700 watt head into a 200 watt speaker

    Right. I've got a legit cab, but it's a 410 and a pain in the butt to drag around, and is way overkill for just jamming along with some acoustic guitars. Don't really wanna drop the cash on another cab as this wouldn't be something I'd use very often Was thinking I'd pull the head and then...

    700 watt head into a 200 watt speaker

    This is a bad idea... right? Okay, hear me out. So I've got a GK 1001rb (700 watts @ 4 ohms) and a buddy is willing to sell me his old mb112 combo (200 watts @ 4 ohms) that he fried the electronics in for cheap. I was thinking if it was possible I'd turn it into just a speaker cab and using it...

    GK distortion with low notes

    So I don't have the 4/5 string button in anymore, and I turned down the volume nob and cranked up the master and the amp is sounding way better now. No more distortion! Thank you all for the help :)

    GK distortion with low notes

    Interesting. What ratio between the two did you find worked the best?

    I'll keep that in mind if this doesn't work out

    GK distortion with low notes

    Hey everyone, I tried the 4/5 string button this morning before I went to class. That seemed to mostly fix the problem. For those wondering, used both an active jazz (fresh battery, flat eq), and a passive pj. I only had a minute to try that this morning and it seemed to work, ill have more...
