I just hit my 10 year in December 🥴 I'm not as active as I used to be but I have benefited greatly from the wealth of knowledge here. Set ups, electronics, buying / selling, technique, music tastes, new music, the list goes on and on. One of my favorite experiences here was when I was going...

Noodle aimlessly for 1-2 hours, hang it up and say to myself "that was a great practice session."

Thanks! Will do and I'll report back after rehearsal tomorrow.

Haaa yes, it is indeed the King Diamond dude. I've been around a bit, but I don't work a job that allows me to shamelessly lurk Talkbass like I used to, unfortunately. I'll tweak that tonight and see if that helps at all. Thanks!

Well, I once again come seeking guidance from the brilliant folks here at the Rick club. I noticed lately that my RIC just absolutely does not keep up output-wise with my Fenders. Now, I know that Ric's are generally lower output and thusly can't be directly compared to that of a Fender, but...

PM’d.

Yep.

Sorry it took me a little longer than I thought, but to answer question 1; Yes. The noise does go away if I turn the master volume down.

Thanks!

I will try this at my next practice. I believe the noise does not go away, but will confirm tomorrow. Yes. I used the amp at both my practice spots, in different cities. Noise was present at both, one running through DI and the other through my cabinet (also Mesa). I do not. I'm assuming this...

Having an issue with my WD-800. When the amp is plugged in it makes a hissing / popping / static noise intermittently. I replaced the tube preamp yesterday and it didn't help out at all. I have also isolated it to just the amp: it makes the noise when no instrument or cable is plugged in, and it...

Price drop to 1550

Thanks. It's a great bass, both a looker and a player, but I can't justify having two jazz basses (even though I've tried).
