    I’m back: 15” cab question

    The Ampeg PortaFlex does indeed fit flipped inside the cabinet. My cab has over 400 gigs on it but the head burned out around gig #150. So I ended up replacing it with a different head, since it wasn't worth fixing it.

    Tuning down half a step - what's the point?

    if you want to play AIC songs like 'Man in the Box', you should have a 2nd bass tuned EbAbDbGb. Although 90% of the songs my band plays are tuned standard, it is necessary for some Hendrix, GnR, AIC and others. This assumes 4-string basses. You cannot get the low Eb otherwise without a 5-string...

    Epiphone EB 3 Reissue

    Had the same problem with the Made in China Epi EB-3. No E string at all! Ended up selling it on ebay and bought a Fender MIM for the same money.

    Band practice

    Three hours 1x a week. This does not include a couple of hours of going over session recordings at home (we record practice on a Tascam with a 4 gb flash card). :eyebrow:

    Acoustic B200H bass head package

    I bought the Acoustic head and speaker combo (B200H/B115) at G.C. and propmtly returned it. Not enough volume at all. Sounded really bad, made in China and it showed.:rolleyes:

    Drummer locking in with guitarist?!

    I agree with TC2112, isn't locking in with the drummer kind of our job? My drummer and I have been together only 6 months, and we have absolutely no issues syncing up. I stand facing him in rehearsal, and I bought a 115 extension cab which goes just to the side of his drum kit. We have no...

    8 track digital recording vs. audacity

    We use the Tascam DP-02 with two mics and record the full band live in rehearsal. Decent quality, use audacity or garageband to clean it up. You may have to try the mics in a couple of different locations to get the right mix.:bassist:

    Fender Deluxe Zone Bass

    I have a MIM in Sienna Sunburst, quality instrument, gets lots of positive comments. It does not boom the lows massively, but 5 controls give you lots of sound options. Can play it bright or muddy. As long as you're not using it for heavy metal, you should be good. One side note - factory...

    Connecting 4x10 to Combo Amp?

    There is one jack on the back that says "line Out", i wanted to put an 8 ohm 410 there. I do not believe that this would bypass the internal speaker, but i'm not sure. If anyone has done this (without damaging the amp head), pls let me know, thx.
