    Warwick Corvette 5, Logic Pro, and You

    Man, I really wished I'd learned of these forums *before* buying that brand new MBox2. Not only do I worry about upgrading to Leopard, I hear more and more about the poor quality of the MBox line in general. *mitchy chalks down more experience

    New & Improved "Show us you action shots" (or 'BUFF Guys Do Gigs') v2.0

    Here's one of me being taken out in a freak banana peel accident: Link Removed What's really bizarre is that I'm a stout man, I got no idea where that girlie-man Corona came from. Link Removed Taken at a club down on Bleeker Street here in Manhattan. Got more interesting ones somewhere...

    Recovering from a bad gig

    I remember years ago, when living out of a tour bus and playing guitar for a production company. This one gig had me run up stacked milk crates right before the solo, so I would appear on the top of the right PA stack and conveniently have a spotlight hit me as I get there for maximum effect...

    Holy **** that man can claw a fretless 6! It has been a long time since I have seen that kind of fingerwork on a fretless, where most usually go for the Jeff Berlin 'slip and slide' thing to excess. Wow, gonna go hunt down some CDs, tomorrow.

    I bought a BA112 in Switzerland for practice, and paid three times what one would pay here in the USA. Well, 'here in the USA' means NYC, and that little practice amp I so massively overpaid for is collecting dust in the corner. I'd love to talk to someone in the NYC area that can get me...

    What was your first bass guitar?

    My first was a Peavey T40 and the venerable TNT100 amp. I went on to my next bass, which has been modded so many times I'm uncertain what it started as. Basically a P/J copy, I think it was an Applause. Now it has a Badass bridge, EMG pickups, and a Warmoth neck. I spent the last 9 years on a...

    Warwick Corvette 5, Logic Pro, and You

    Ok, actually this is about me *blush* Old geezer here, attempting to modernize with a MacBook Pro, MBox2, Logic Pro, and a vintage Warwick Corvette 5. Man, that tone simply stinks. I mean S-T-E-E-N-K-S, and not in a good way. I play around with the existing virtual amps, and even muck...
