Take a page out of Mono Neon’a playbook

Be yourself. Just like Mono Nein ;)

Weight and size are critical because weight/size = technological progress! People want smaller and people want lighter, and as technology improves, companies find ways to get the same quality out of smaller devices. This is progress. I have a GB Shuttle that I can literally fit into the front...

I play bass for a local band in Charlotte, NC, and on the side create my own music... Mostly electro/house/dub step-ish. I'd like to mix in a bass track occasionally, but the only interface I have is a Behringer Guitar Link, which sucks! What "affordable" USB interface would you recommend...

Sorry for the double-post. Just realized this is in the wrong category, so I re-posted it here... http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f43/usb-interface-recording-bass-ableton-live-1067096/#post15717111

I think I'd need a more advanced loop station. I love my RC-3. It's powerful for what it is... But not quite enough for this.

I got an RC-3 pedal recently, and absolutely love it. However it's got me wanting more... In addition to bass, I'd like to loop in some keys, and maybe some more advanced drum samples. Combining more than one set of loops would be cool too. Know of a more advanced loop station? Something like a...

I've got chops, but not Michael Manring "record a bass only solo album" chops. Plus I'm not sure the general public would get it anyways. Solo bassist usually appeal primarily to other bassists. What I was thinking about was using an Octaver up on a rhythm layer, down on a bass layer to get...

After playing around overdubbing with my RC-3 and other effects, I got to thinking... My band only plays about once per month. I wonder if I could put together some covers, and play small gigs, coffeehouses, or whatever, without any accompaniment? Layer the bass, rhythm, and then play lead on...

One thing I didn't mention is that it has EMG pickups, not the original MEC's. But from the research I've done, EMG's should not sound thinner than MEC's.

Interesting. I hope its not something else. I've played plenty of Thumb's in the store, but this one I bought used online without playing first. Judging by appearance it seems to be in great condition. I was previously playing medium DR's on my Jazz bass, so that's why I thought it might be...

I just bought a Pro Series Thumb bass, that came with DR Sunbeams 40-100. The strings feel great, super easy to slap on that bass. However the sound is too thin. The E string has no bottom at all. I want a set of strings with bold, low presence on the E and A, but a D and G that are still...

It's a Fender Deluxe bag. Same design as the double bad you posted, but it's only a single. I was actually looking for something with padded pockets to protect the Shuttle, but couldn't find any.

I've been on a portability kick while assembling my latest rig. I upgraded my Fender Jazz case for a hefty gig bag, with large pockets. Now I can fit everything... bass, amp, all cables into one gig bag with backpack straps. I have HyDrive 112 and 115 cabinets, so if I only bring the 112 then...

Do you use them by themselves, or with something else? What amp?
