Hey guys, I'm in a fraternity and we have some great equipment, but people don't really know how to use them that well. We are just running music from an ipod usually anyways. Here is our set-up: Two JBL JRX125 Dual 15" Speaker Cabinets (4 Ohms) One Crown XLS 802 Amplifier (500 Watts per...

I know that DR makes a bunch of colored strings, but I am under the impression that these are used for metal. I play reggae mainly and use flatwounds. Do you guys know any colored strings that would be more suited towards my playing style? Thanks.

thanks for all the replies guys...there is another band also playing so I think we are going to split the cost for a sound guy. I don't know yet what he is going to bring, I'm wondering if we are going to need to get a lot of mics, or would the company bring them? In terms of power, we are...

Hey, my band is playing an outdoor gig in a field...actually on a pirate ship. This is probably going to be an open stage, with maybe a tarp in case it rains. This will probably be the first time that we have to mic amps (two guitars and one bass). I really don't know much about this, so I...

My set-up is the following: mexican p-bass special with both j and p pickups, active electronics-->gk 1001rb--> avatar 412. I bought the cab and head based on recommendations that I got from this site. I want to know how I should adjust my settings to get a nice reggae tone. Unfortunately, I...

Hey, I just recently tried plugging in my Washburn AB 32. I run it through a gk 1001rb and an avatar 4ohm cab. I'm getting huge feedback on regular, low volume settings. The soundhole is awkwardly shaped (like an oval), and the one rubber feedback buster insert i've tried didn't fit. I...

Hey I just got a new acoustic electric bass off of ebay. Its a Washburn 32, which I think is old and discontinued. It sounds great unplugged, but when I put a battery into the pick up, the red battety indicator doesn't turn on and I can't get any sound out of my amp through the pick ups. The...

this may also seem like a dumb question, but if you had a 1000 watt like the avatar 410, why would you get a head that was like 350 watts?

hey thanks guys. i'm from boston. but i'm going to school in the Raleigh-Durham area..so either of those locations works for me.

I currently borrow a SWR working pro combo, and I have a ****** fender like 60 watt for practice. but this definitely does not need to be the end all.

Hey I'm looking to get a new rig, i play mainly reggae with Fender P bass. I need enough power for small to medium venues. I also don't really stray that much from a solid, low, clean tone. I got a budget of $850 and a very open mind, looking for some advice...thanks

My budget is between $600 and $700. Any suggestions then? How much more power do I need?

I am trying to decide between two amps (the Ampeg BA-115HP and SWR WorkingPro 15 200 Watt 1x15" Bass Combo Amp). i play reggae and I'm looking for some solid, clean lows to go along with the groove. I really don't mess around with effects, keeping my tone clean. They both are about the same...
