    Munjibunga says hello to TalkBass, hints at possible return

    He and Lomo (both class acts) were the only 2 TB members I've met in person since joining this board in the 2000's. I caught one of his gigs in 2011 on a trip to California and afterwards he took my brother and I around to some of the local bars. Welcome back!

    Gig report 21/4/18

    Sorry Paula, me again. Was that Jay on drums? I joined he and Reif at the Frankford Island Blues Fest in maybe 2011. Also a great guy. Sounds like a fun stage all around!

    Gig report 21/4/18

    Ha! I spot Reif in the pics. I played with him for a few years - stellar guy. Never expected his pic to pop up on Talkbass.

    Best bag or case for cables/misc gear?

    I use one of these. It's not cheap, but I really like not having to take everything out of a backpack to get at the item I want, which is always at the bottom. Link Removed

    Noise problem - looking for suggestions

    Sorry in advance for the very long thread... I have a noise problem that's developed over the past 6 months or so and I'm kind of at my wits end on how to diagnose further. Just for background, I'm a hobbyist who gigs/rehearses a half-dozen times a month with several different...

    Best strap locks?

    I use Ernie Ball straplocks on all of my basses. Haven't had any failures and I like the looks of them.

    Outdoor gig, I didn't wear short!

    The Canada thing is no exception. It can get pretty hot up here in the summer.

    Using IEM's when not all amps go through the mixer

    Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, but I did look through the threads in this forum before posting. I occasionally play small bars where none of the amps (2 guitars + bass) are put through the mixer. We strictly use the mixer/PA for vocals. The problem I'm having is the ability to...

    MTD 535-21 -canada-

    Bump for a fellow Canuck and for someone whom I've bought an MTD from. I'm still in love with the ash/walnut 535 you sold me last year.

    IEM ear buds: generic vs. custom fit

    Inserting and removing the custom buds are a snap. You just roll them in/out of your ears. It takes a few tries to get the hang of it, but once you do it's not an issue at all. I had a pair of Ultimate Ear's Triple fi's and had them remoulded into customs. I find them easier to put in/take...

    Doesn't this kind of contradict the title of the original post?
