    When playing live, do you use wireless to connect your instrument?

    That would be great! I NEVER have to worry about it dropping out (as long as the battery is good). It's a fantastic system. I'm even looking to see if I can find another one...just for fun.

    When playing live, do you use wireless to connect your instrument?

    I love going wireless! I have a NADY 201 True Diversity system that I bought in 1989. It is a VHF system using frequency 209.15 MHz. It only has ONE channel! This unit has been bullet proof. Other than replacing the wall wart a few times, re-soldering a cold joint on the receiver circuit board...

    How many have had amps over 10 years and still use them?

    I have two full VOX rigs. Each has a GK 700RB II in the head cab and two 15" Eminence Beta 15's in the cabs. I have had them both since about 2006.

    Show me your basses with cream or white pickups!

    I have a '75 Precision with Dimarzio pickups and I recently added a set of Hofner Tea Cup knobs to match.

    Does a musician's personal life affect your opinion of the music?

    To a point. For example, I like a lot of Green Day music but I think Billie Joe Armstrong is an American idiot… politically speaking. I don’t care for his on stage rants and I will probably still listen to the music but I won’t go see them live again. I don’t know about Mike or Tre because they...

    Vox bass cabs.

    Does anyone have experience with the Vox T-100 bass cabs North Coast Music used to make? If so, does anyone have experience porting this cab or cabs in general? It's a sealed enclosure and I'm just curious.

    Gigging cab configuration

    I'm in two bands. One doesn't use amps at all...everything goes direct and we use in-ear-monitors. With the other, I fly most of the time so we are at the mercy of whatever amps are provided. I carry an in-ear system with me and fortunately, I am able to use it most of the time so it doesn't...
