Hopefully this thread doesn't start getting replies with names of bands people are currently listening to. These are not the droids I'm looking for. The topic on my brain today is what you're listening to when hearing a piece of music. I'm in the end stages of mixing an album and spent the last...

Hey all, I'm starting a sort of vlog style documentation of my current project, dropping in some Novak BS-DS pickups into my MIM Jazz, as well as some audio examples of before and after the mod. I'm a few weeks out from finishing the project so this is just the intro video and a couple "before"...

Ric owner here... it's a new addition to the family, a 2014 model, and I could not be happier with it. Got to show it off in style a few weeks ago... link below

Ha, alrighty, thanks for that info, B-string! Much appreciated. I'm an eager beaver with fixing my own stuff, but I think I'll try with something simpler. ;)

Thanks, B-string. That does sound like a more complex process than I imagined. Maybe I should just take it in to a shop? I've heard many success stories about reconing at home, but I haven't seen many people talk about the risks. Good points.

Well, something's wrong with them and I'd like to try fixing it myself. I've read in the forums that you can indeed recone 15L's, so I learned about how to do it with a kit from Sound Speaker Repair, and I'd like to give it a try. Are you saying I should take it in to a shop for repair, or since...

Hey all, I need a little help finding out some info on my Mesa/Boogie Diesel 2x15's speaker requirements. After searching the forums, I haven't quite found enough info for me to go ahead and purchase a reconing kit yet. So here goes... From the info that I've gathered: Diesel 2x15's come...

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this in, or if I should even be posting this, but my band's got a new album coming out soon which we're really excited about and we've opened up a Kickstarter page to help fundraise its release! Please, if you've got the time and some extra cash...

June is just around the corner and it's about time for every young scholar to walk across the stage. I'm very happy to announce that I graduated yesterday along with my 64 fellow classmates. A small class with a lot of big hearts. Here's a pic for proof! ;) I'm sure TB's got quite a few...

True, Ubuntu makes it pretty easy to download firmware. I don't think I ever got my speaker and wireless drivers to work properly, though, but it's probably because I was on a Mac...

Ubuntu's great, definitely worth downloading if you're open to learning a new OS. It's different than both Windows and OS X, so it'll take some time to get use to. Also, it's a bit more "manual" than Windows, so you may need to install new drivers for wireless, speakers, etc. You can always give...

I got a new 4-string Big Al for $1175. One GC employee's error is another bass player's dream...

I didn't have a drummer for years and when I compare that with playing with a drummer, it's definitely a bit more challenging to play solo. Billgwx is totally right. I love locking in with the other instruments available, especially if it's a different feel than what I'm used to. Challenges are...

"The day after The Academy concert, Victoria Jorgenson, 22, was terrified to realize that she had accidentally slept with the band's bass player, mistaking him for someone important in the band." [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Well hey, at least it wasn't the tambourine player...

My 104HF arrived yesterday! I think the LMIII breathes a little better with it rather than with my GK 410RBH. Excited for its first gig on Sunday. :D
