Hi, Is it still for sale? Thanks, Roscoe <[email protected]>

I've had a Hog20 - smaller version of the Hog30, same 12volt batteries smaller 6" speaker - for years. With some modification, it beats the heck out of all the battery operated "bass amps" I've tried. I took it apart and re-housed it with a nice 8" bass speaker from Eminence. . I play...

When I want the big fella way quiet and I still need to practice I thread a bandana through the strings at the bridge. With experimentation you can still hear the pitch (though muffled) and work out the left and right hand.

Here's my two cents Clarky, Recently a luthier friend suggested I try lower tension, than spiro mittel strings on my bass - a christopher hybrid. I play Americana and Jazz - almost all pizz. Contrary to fretless55's comment "(stay away from the Inno. RABs)" I've had partial success with...

Hey Grillmaster, Would you consider lower offers? If so, PM me at [email protected] Thanks

With other folks emphasizing the b7 as a leading note to the IV chord - either in the vocals or high note instrumentation like mando or banjo - the last thing the bass wants to do is jump on that note too. As a melodic flourish, that 7th needs a home base to jump off of. You're home bass! Try...
