    Amp makes fuzzy noise when i turn bass boost on

    After all why the hell would anyone want to crank up the bass boost? I mean, like it's been mentioned above - the best technique for EQing is cutting, not boosting.

    Metronome during rehearsals: Yay or Nay?

    In my new cover band we have a guitarist that tends to speed up at the end of the chorus usually, and a drummer who is happy to follow. Getting the drummer to wear headphones with metronome totally solved the issue, and he was happy with that!

    Guitar player says make the bass sound like one

    Totally agree with the previous comment - while at first smacking the guitard in the face with your heaviest bass may seem the best solution, it's not, unless you don't want to play with him anymore. Try different settings at the next practice, make sure you record it, then listen and discuss.

    Things other band members say or do that piss you off...

    Not learning their respective parts at home and doing that at the gig - partly for my money. However, both bands I am in at the moment are friends/good acquaintances of mine, and they are gradually improving.

    Bummed

    I won't be so much supportive as others - sorry for that! But in my very humble opinion you should really practice more. From what I've read here I should believe the drummer plays not only the downbeat on the kick - if he isn't as pissed off at your playing whole notes only (again I might have...

    Finish issues! For warning.

    Be sure to remove all the old sh*t. Other questions are for the finish manufacturer. Sue them maybe.

    I Must Be Getting Old

    I've just turned 26, and I'd much more prefer some Motown stuff to move my butt to. But it takes all kinds to make the world)
