    I have a friend who needs a sound system for a wedding rehearsal dinner in a small venue. The wedding and reception are covered, so they are just looking to rent a system for one night. I was asked if I would be available, and what I would rent my system for. It will primarily be used for...

    Bass VI putting us out of work?

    I'd pay good money to see a puppy play an 8 string. Or a Bass VI. Or any instrument for that matter.

    Is it worth it to mod this Squier?

    I bought one of these on impulse a few years ago, and it was great for getting some experience without frets and for training my ear. The only mod I did on it was after a few years of playing, had another jack laying around so I replaced the tone pot with it and took each pickup out separately.

    What do you think about while you are gigging.

    When I think about the experience I have had with other musicians, I love how self deprecating yet relaxed bass players can be. And yes, I do think about which girl I should be playing for. Then I miss a note and think "she's not interested anymore..." As if she was before.

    True. So as long as you aren't hiding behind a drumset, you're a perfectly viable target.

    Tube vs. Solid State = Charcoal vs. Gas?

    I like the warmth of a tube amp. My guitarist had an old Fender amp, and on a cold outdoor gig I could get up behind it and keep my hands from freezing.
