    My rented backline adventures

    Wow! That's too bad. I used to play with a bass player that had a late '90s or early 2000s WT800 that he ran into a 410 and a 215. You could hear that sucker down the street from the bar without it even being in the PA. It was a great sounding amp from what I remember.

    G&L Legacy

    My brother and I both have G&L Legacy Special guitars... They both have those type of knobs on them. However they are guitars so it might be different.

    Line6 G50 wireless - cable issue...warning

    i had one of those for a minute (until someone stole it), and I bought a few shure cables off amazon and they were much nicer in my opinion. They also had angled ends (which I prefer). I paid about $20 each before shipping, and I have a couple more that I never got to use. PM me if you're...

    Billy Sheehan in the Winery Dogs

    Cool. Let us know what you think. If they play anything like they did in Lancaster you're in for a treat!

    Billy Sheehan in the Winery Dogs

    That's cool. Small world I guess. I went to the same high school as Adam. He's a little older than me, but we played in talent shows against each other. They always smoked us lol. I never understood why every time I saw him play he was just playing the rhythm guitar. That guy can play his...

    Billy Sheehan in the Winery Dogs

    Do you know Adam Carna? He posted a vid of Billy's bass solo from roughly the same perspective as your photo on FB today. The guy who took the vid was from Willow Street as well.Thought it might be you.

    Billy Sheehan in the Winery Dogs

    I just saw these guys play tonight at the Chameleon club in Lancaster, PA. Honestly I'd never heard their album, but I gotta say they put on a hell of a show. Easily one of the best (if not the best) three piece bands I've ever seen. I went out because of Billy and Mike I've never heard of...

    peavey tnt 160

    I like the jazz, but I wouldn't pay that kind of money when I could get a perfectly good jazz for half the price. I also like the jazz, but I'd rather have one if it had a jazz neck, and a jazz pickup in the bridge. Might be cool to take a jazz and re route it for a jazz pickup too. All that...

    Recording

    Honestly, your recording doesn't sound bad to my ears. Keep at it and you might be great one day. If you're shooting for radio play, what I'd be concerned about is the fact that the song is 15 seconds shy of 5 minutes and it takes a minute and a half for the vocals to come in. Radio stations...

    My rented backline adventures

    That's pretty much my rig, except I don't know how old my cab is. That and my tolex looks like it slid down the highway. I seriously think my ampeg cab has the weakest tolex of any amp or cab I've ever had. They sure are pretty when new though.

    Greatest Music Related Movie Of All Time

    For Feature Films... +1 For The Commitments... It really shows how non glamorous music can be. Also it perfectly demonstrates how volatile personalities and egos can bring a promising band to self destruct right when things are about to pay off for them. For concert videos... +1 For The...

    dumbest thing i have ever heard

    I recorded at a studio owned by a guy who insisted that we tune the drums to the bass guitar. Then he insisted we use his drums and that we pay his buddy $50 to come in and tune them. As some of you may have guessed by now it wasn't a particularly pleasant studio experience and we never went...

    My rented backline adventures

    I live in Lancaster about 20 minutes from Clair Brothers. They are one of the biggest sound companies in the business. I think it's funny that they even bother with 4x10 cabs at all. You'd think for a gig at Hershey Park they'd automatically bring an 8x10. Of course if your drummer specified...
