    Is older heavier gear getting cheap since light weight is the fad?

    Neod 4x10, and the room I am playing tonight is fine for it , the cab weighs maybe 30-40 lb , my head I can fit into a gig bag , actually the whole thing comes in under the weight of just an SVT classic head, so no dick flashing, I save that for the Bass guitar its self ;)

    We play enough gigs in a year to well appreciate class D gear , I do not want to be bothered with 8x10's or 200 lb tube heads anymore when I get the tone and power I want from a 1/2 lb 350 watt class D head and 50 lb 4x10 cabinet , this is not 1980 anymore and generally gear isn't a dick...

    how did your parents feel about your albums?

    I didn't care what they thought , 2 things my folks never (thankfully) concerned themselves with were personal relationships and my music. My dad tried to play good catholic and bitched loudly , but I ignored and persevered, made a lot of good decisions with bad girls and listened to what I...

    If you could fluently play one more instrument, what would it be?

    Hiding it

    why hide it , you aint married to them or cheating on a relationship , you are a grown person playing in a second band , I do it as well , second band gigs a hell of a lot more and is fun on a bun to play shows with

    The for aircraft enthusiasts megathread. For all of us who are just plane crazy.

    for me , its British and German war birds of all types, I even fly a MK IX Spitfire remote plane , J for Johnny, Canadian Markings. Was never much into Yank war birds , they just didnt have the classic styling of Brit planes or the great design of the German planes

    Lyrics that speak to you.

    just part of a line from sissyneck by beck , its part of the chorus and its: I'm writing my will on a three dollar bill in the evening time" I dunno why but that line intrigues me

    I refer to myself as the translator between the guitars and drums and my instrument is the 4 string thingamastick
