    Warwick active electronics question

    On a Corvette $$, is the battery disconnected from the circuit by the on-off knob alone, or do you also have to unplug the guitar? Thanks for the help.

    Tony Grey bass Academy?

    I am. I am just learning the bass. I am not able to take live lessons at this point. I have used in the past a number of internet based lesson plans and instruction. For me, Tony Grey's instruction and Bass Academy is by far the best! What I really like is that he delves into theory in a...

    Modes for Major Scale

    From gleaning these responses I think I am getting a better idea of these scale constructions. I like the terms 'relative' and 'parallel', that seems to put it in a better context for me to understand. Thanks

    Modes for Major Scale

    No sustain on D on 1st String

    New to the 4 string bass. Fender J-Bass, Rotosound 77's; I have noticed that I have no resonance or sustain on the D played on the 1st string. This is the only position that this occurs. Is this normal?
