    Avatar Owners Club Pt. 2

    Theory- you're going to love it. The only thing is that to get the feedback you have to hold your bass in front of the speakers Tom Morello style. It does make you feel like kind of a badass though

    Some wires psychin' me out

    So I'm replacing the p pickup in my old Squier P-bass Special with a Bill Lawrence P46. Here's my deal: The new pup has 3 leads coming from each split. Red, black, blue from one, green, white, blue from the other. The diagram says to run white to volume and black to ground (no problem). But...

    Slap- you don't hear too many Beastie Boys references these days. Good song, GREAT video. +1 to you, sir. Theory- Sorry to hear about that Phat Hed. At least you didn't have to drop too much money on it. Do you have a wah pedal by any chance? I'm finding that when I crank the OD and the Q...

    Avatar Owners Club Pt. 2

    thanks brother- i'm *beyond* excited to get it in there, especially after being so disappointed with the bddi. strangely, the other od i have (ibanez phat hed) doesn't have a drive setting subtle enough for me to use, so instead i crank it all the way up to make spooky feedback sounds. fun...

    Avatar Owners Club Pt. 2

    thanks slaphappy- so cropped. you can kinda see the cab, but unfortunately you get a much better view of the less-than-impressive GK that i was borrowing at the time. working with a lmii at the moment, and i couldn't be more pleased. sides, i'm about to add a vt bass to give myself the...

    A Choice of Wahs...

    I feel like I've seeing a lot of wah pedal threads recently. Are they making a comeback of sorts? Anyway, I'll throw my lot in with the Weeping Demon folks.

    Fretless P-basses...?

    I am having a hard time typing with all the drool on my keyboard. This is literally everything I want in my next bass. Starting with the bottom strap button, ending with the all the bootys that thing shakes and has shaken, and everything in between. You are blessed.

    The "So What, I'm a Bass Player" Game

    So I don't shred "hawt lixx" or "killer riffz" so I don't "make eardrums bleed" maybe people want to "shake their bootys" when I groove so what? I'm a bass player!

    Stuff you hate to hear another Bassist Say

    I apologize for this not being about the bass, but I think yall will enjoy it. I'm playing backup for a f*ckin VIRTUOSO mandolinist in a high school talent show about six years go. We're hanging out in a hallway a few minutes before we go on stage, and this girl walks by and says to him, "Oh...

    why we love the who

    Ah- you miss my point, Mr. Snarky McCleverpants. Pink Floyd is/was fantastic, and put on a very distinct sort of live show. Incredible, revolutionary, genius, yes absolutely. But I would contend that it's an utterly different style. In a Pink Floyd show, the hook is a psychedelic...

    why we love the who

    Between the dynamite in the drums, the manic guitar player, and the frontman revolving the mic at speeds high enough to julienne fries... Yeah I'd say it was a definite possibility. hehe, I'm the manic stage performer in our band. I'm pretty sure there's some cell phone footage of our...
