    Travel/couch/light(er) bass?

    I just picked up a Kala U-Bass. Tried 2 Headen Uke Basses and sent them back for QC reasons. I'm liking the Kala so far ... but I ordered a set of flats for it and think I'll be much happier once they're on. My purpose is for purchasing is for camping and campfire acoustic jams (w/ a small...

    The state of electronic drums for rehearsal

    Sounds like I'm in the minority here ... but I'm not an electronic kit fan. For practice (in my basement) I use hot rod sticks which bring the volume down substantially. I still get the feel of an acoustic kit and have to work a little harder during practice (not a lot of rebound). When we...

    Thoughts on Squier basses? Im skeptical.

    I purchased a Squier CV 70's P at the end of last year and after a few setups and the switch to Chrome flatwounds I was very pleased. To suit my personal taste ... I also swapped out the PU's to SD 1/4#'s and added a Kickass bridge. Now I'm ecstatic. I built the little cab using a 10"...
