    Metal Bassists

    I have been playing metal for over 10 years and like the post above, yes it doesn't pay very well. But it is in my soul and will never go away. I was never one to play another instrument and switch to bass, I chose to play bass way back when and never looked back. I currently play a Fernandez...

    Mystery Peavey 2x15

    So my brother picked this up for a steal on a whim. It's unloaded but seems like all the wiring is there for quick hookup. Has anyone here ever seen/played out of a cab like this? It is a 2x15, I can't remember what the model is however. The grilles are covering the portholes while the speakers...

    Please recommend me some heavy, but not too heavy, music

    Iron Maiden, Pantera - Cowboys from Hell. Also check out my band Tomorrow Brings New Blood, I think it may fall into what you're looking for.

    Which combo amp for a non-gigging bass player?

    I would also have to suggest the Ampeg Combos. I've been using a BA-115 for about 10-12 years and it has never let me down in tone quality or power. It says that it's 100 watts but it thunders over my two guitarist and drums at a little over half volume for practice.

    PEDAL ORDER FOR MY PEDALS! HELP NEEDED

    First Bass Rig??

    I've been doing the same thing for the past few weeks now off and on looking to upgrade soon. I'm coming from an Ampeg BA115 going to some 500 watt head and a 2x15 cab. Are you looking for a combo amp? Head/Cab combo? What size of band are you playing with? There are all sorts of different...

    Hello!!!

    Hello!! New to the forums but I've been reading on here for quite some time. I've been playing bass for the past about 15 years total. I have been kinda slacking the past few and made it a point to get back into it and get the old band back together!! I mainly play death metal/grindcore...
