    could my truss rod be broken?

    thanks guys, i guess i'll keep going as for the setup, i dont know how knowledgeable this guy is, he wrapped the strings around the tuner posts as if he was stringing up a 6-string, and the bass wasn't even in tune when i got it back. im thinking he didn't really know what he was doing, and i'm...

    could my truss rod be broken?

    hey guys, i recently acquired a nice 1988-89 yamaha rbx800a through a trade, but something doesn't seem right.. when i first got it, it was tuned to standard, but there was quite a bit of fret buzz, and since my band plays in drop B (B/F#/B/E just so we're on the same page here) i bought a...

    do you remove your casters?

    makes sense i guess i could always just put my cab on its side (or upside down) if i wanted to have it flat on the floor haha i kind of figured it was, but you never know..

    do you remove your casters?

    well, since its the internet and i'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but casters are just the wheels on the bottom of the cabinets..

    do you remove your casters?

    hey everyone, i just purchased an eden 410xlt and one of the casters needs to be replaced. i've heard that you get better bass response if you remove your casters and have your cab sit right on the floor, but how necessary is this? i don't want to spend too much money on casters, but if it...

    the TRACE ELLIOT thread: Part II

    just grabbed this off ebay! it sounds great at low volumes with my ampeg svt450, can't wait to get another cab (probably a 1x18 or 2x10) and crank it

    Just picked up a trace elliot 1518 (i think?)

    i actually ended up getting a better deal than i thought! i won the 1x15 for $152 USD, and somebody else won the matching 4x10 for $308 USD, but the seller accidentally mixed up the shipments and I ended up getting the 4x10. apparently the 1x15 got damaged in transit, and the other guy just...

    Just picked up a trace elliot 1518 (i think?)

    awesome! i've read that they're quite mid-rangey, which is great imo. now i've just gotta downsize my swr 4x10 to a 2x10 of some kind and my rig will be complete

    Just picked up a trace elliot 1518 (i think?)

    hey guys, i (think i) just picked up an old trace elliot 1518 off ebay for a good price, but the ad didn't have as much information as i hoped it would. it was described as the "158T", but after doing a bit of research, i think its actually an old 1518.. this is what the ad says: "This is the...

    is a 4x10 + 2x10 a good combination?

    hmm...see i thought maybe i'd go with the 2x10 instead of another 4x10 because of portability, but maybe i should just sell the 4x10 and get like a 1x15 and a 2x10 or something like that, even a 6x10 would work well see, at 8ohms my amp only puts out like 250w, i've jammed with my band using...

    is a 4x10 + 2x10 a good combination?

    hey everyone, i'm new to the forum and did about an hours worth of searching and couldn't quite find a definite answer.. i've got an ampeg svt-450h and an swr goliath III 4x10, the cab is 8ohms and can handle 800 watts..long story short, i need the full 450w after doing some research, i've...
