    My SL600 finally arrived yesterday in ChCh NZ. It has been sitting up in Auckland for the last week due to the earthquake. Last night I played around with headphones and forgot everything else that is going on around here at the moment. It seems great bass tone does in fact melt worries away...

    Genz Benz Streamliner; Part 4

    Hi Ed, nah unfortunately it's not. Between 50-75 % of the buildings in the city will be demolished and the entire eastern suburbs are wrecked. Roads, power, water & sewer are destroyed. Luckily I'm on the western side of the city and we missed the damage from this one (our damage was the 7.1 in...

    Genz Benz Streamliner Part 3!!!!

    Oh yeah, I'm tracking the order every hour. :D Does anyone know if the STL-12T cab would be suitable for a portable/practice rig. I don't know what the freight would cost from the States to NZ for a cab but over here they sting you $1000 for the 12T.

    Genz Benz Streamliner Part 3!!!!

    I just received notification that my SL600 has shipped. I'm in NZ and couldn't wait for the distributor here to get some in. Besides they really rip your wallet for gear over here. The NZ-US currency conversion is pretty good at the moment so I couldn't resist. I've only been playing a...

    My new Warwick Corvette Std

    Yep, the neck sure is solid. The extra string is causing a bit of confusion at the moment, but with practice it's going to be all good. And that low B makes the hairs on my neck stand out. :smug: Oh I made sure to get a wide strap to help support and spread the weight, it sure is a heavy...

    My new Warwick Corvette Std

    I've only been learning bass for 6 months but finally got sick of the nasty sound coming from my Ibanez SR200FM. So I went out and splurged on a Warwick. I went 5 string, I figure I may as well get something I can grow into. I'm in love with it!! OK, I can't play all that well yet but the...

    MarloweDK's Youtube account suspended?

    So how do covers bands survive playing "copyrighted" music? MarloweDK was not selling music or pirating it or copying it he was only playing along to it. How come all the crappy bass players on youtube don't get banned?
