    best Ampeg cab to pair with pf-800

    I purchased a pf-800 a few months ago on the TB classified and am now ready to buy a cab. I was all set on buying a 115he but the more I read about different Ampeg cabs the more confused I become. I am current considering the svt-212av. I'm planning on using a single cab for the time being...

    Who are your favorite bassist/drummer duos

    While probably not my favorite duo, Pino and Steve Jordan (John Mayer Trio, Mayer's Battle Studies) are great together!

    G&L Club Part 7

    Trying to plan out color options and just realized G&L doesn't offer sea foam or surf green. Is belair green close to either? I know these colors are hard to tell from pictures, but belair looks to be a bit darker shade of green.

    Pino on SNL W/D'Angelo

    I agree. For the first song he was playing his fiesta red P w/ tort guard, but for the second it was a red P w/ white guard and two soapbar pickups? I was wondering if it was a Lakland but didn't get a good look at the bridge. Sounded great per usual!

    G&L vs. Lakland

    I've been set on buying an LB-100 for a few weeks now, but the D. Lakin Basses Bob Glaub sig is making me second guess myself. Several options for both and around the same price. Decisions Decisions

    G&L Club Part 7

    I'm really gassing for a lb-100 in clear orange with a tort guard and rosewood fretboard. I was planning on an ash body but have read on here and other websites that an ash body w/ rosewood is a major no-no. Will the transparent finish still look good on an alder body?

    G&L Pricing

    Is there/how would you describe the difference in neck feel between satin and gloss? Is one more slick? One more a "broken-in" feeling? Just looks?

    Thanks for the pricing info! Currently my New Years resolution is to have a JB by the end of the year. Haha. Time to start saving!

    Ampeg pf500: to buy or not to buy

    Jimmy, will the 800 work well at low "practice" volumes? Or is it too much power for my needs?
