    New head and cab today

    Yeah, I'm not sure I understand why they aren't making any 15's. I wish I could find another one of these small 15 cabs for cheap. A 2x 1-15 rig like this would sound awesome!

    New head and cab today

    I got an old 1x15 Avatar cab that my buddy had. It's one of the early little "cube" cabs that has the port in the back. This thing has sounded good with every head he ran through it. So I bopped into the local Guitar Center today. They have the Acoustic B200H heads on sale for $149 for...

    RIP Fourstring44 aka Curt

    I don't know if this ever got posted here on TB or not, but I wanted to let everyone know. Curt, aka fourstring44, passed away a few months ago. He wasn't feeling well and was diagnosed with liver cancer and passed away within about 6 weeks of the diagnosis. Curt and I worked together in a...

    How to work together with keys? (or synths?... or organs?)

    First if you guys are running everything through the PA I'd try to get mix that gives you both some separation so the low end doesn't get all muddied up out front. As far as on stage goes, you're going to HAVE to sit down with him and explain the problem. Arrange a time when the two of you...

    The girl or the band?

    To the OP... A jealous woman is a jealous woman. It doesn't matter if it's music, the office, family friends, her friends... there will always be a problem on her end. I'm not saying you need to ditch her. Talk about it with her, let her know how you feel about her, but be firm with your band...

    coolest band names ever.

    I've been playing part time with a band called The Beaver Jones Band. It originated as a throw together band to play a birthday party. Some girl asked the name of the band. We said, "We don't have a name. We're just getting together for the fun." She insisted on having a name so she went...

    pickup hums like mad

    It only hums because it doesn't know the words! :hyper: Sorry couldn't help myself. Yeah, there's an open ground somewhere. Did you try moving some wires to see if it would quit buzzing? (plugged in and turned way down of course)

    Sound guy walked on stage and turned me down...

    Trying to justify half of what I see sound guys doing these days is almost impossible.

    MIM P Bass questions

    After 25 years of playing guitar I'm finally getting back to my roots and going back to bass. I've somewhat decided on trying to find a MIM P Bass... seems like good bang for the buck. What years are best? Are some years better than others? What are the down falls of the Mexican made...

    true giant monster rigs

    1982? You're a young man! One of these days you'll look back on these times and say, "Oh those were the days when guys carried my stuff for me" as you're loading your combo into the trunk of your car. ;) Trust me... enjoy it while you can because it doesn't last forever. Enjoy every...
