Don't make the video go too long, the first 30 seconds is critical, so get coverage with the biggest crowd you can right from the start.. Since you are a tribute band, go into the best parts of the hit tunes like a highlight reel. Have fun, look jammin, play great, and crowd coverage. I also...

I have been watching this one a few weeks...this one looks great. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

It looks like my attempt at adding something funny didn't work too well...

I guess if your band was DEVO or something, you can't really have only 1 guy wearing a red flowerpot on his head. In that scenario, the band has to vote all in for the new uniforms, we are all going to wear red flowerpots on our head from this day forward.

The Headphones help me when moving the mic myself. They are quite revealing when listening for phase issues, in fact I can slowly move the mic further, or closer to the speaker, until it sound "hollow" or weird due to the phase relationship between 2 sources. Sometimes I will lock in the mic at...

One option, is put on a good set of headphones, and while someone is playing the bass, take the mic and move it until the sound is good. Sometimes that means going closer to the speaker, and other times I have set the mic back several feet away from the speaker. Whatever works best for the...

39 basses. ?!! wow. Bump for this bass, I just got one very similar to this, and it's just great.

My friend gave me this old bass. The neck is fat, the body is plywood, but it plays ok and it works. Is it worth anything? I never heard of this brand Rainier. Pics attached. Thanks.

It can be a little tricky to identify from a small sample, as the color is normally a light green, but some poplar is more white in color, and boards are typically streaked with purple and...

That was a great tune !

Many Thanks again for the advice Guys! This is a cool forum, I like the online store too...bought a couple sets to try. One set for this Fender fretless, and another set for a recently acquired old fretted bass

Reminds me of scene from Cheech and Chong Up in Smoke. These uniforms are lame...lets have everyone wear something different, but the same. :)

Many Thanks for this. Medium Light pressure wounds sounds like the winner. I'll try em, and report back

My fretboard does needs a little sanding down..it's not too bad, but I noticing a few areas a little grooved out. Since this bass is nice, all original, I have scheduled an appointment at my local luthier in a couple weeks to go thru everything. I'm researching gauges now...Thinking medium is...

Hey, Thanks a lot guys for your input and advice. I'm listening to you, and learning...and playing the heck out of this new bass, right 2 fingers fricken hurtin. I came across Dadarrio Half wounds during my string searching. Any experiences with those? I have using Dadarrio Nickel wound for my...
