    Question about Beatbuddy mini 2

    Thank you very much for your guidance. I did find a simple and cheap solution: I use my Vox Amplug 2. It is plugged in my bass and then I use the Aux exit to plug the BeatBuddy mini 2. Also, by doing so I get another set of drum beats (from the Vox). I can even play both drum sets together (Vox...

    Sire Bass Club!

    Just got my new Sire V7 2nd gen a few days ago. Love the bass but do not like the plastic knobs. So I found replacements in aluminum. Since it took me some time to find the correct ones, I'd like to share the ones I found that fit nicely (I chose black but they are available in different...

    Jazz Bass on steroids: The Sire V7 2nd gen...

    "the way an instrument "behaves" in my hands ...has a huge impact... I sound different on my ´73 J than I do on this Sire". That's because you practice too much. Take me for example. I hardly ever practice and therefore - compared to you - I constantly sound like crap, whatever the bass. It's...

    Fender JB Japan JB42 vs 62RI

    Hello to all, I am considering buying a J-serial Fender Japan JB (dating it to 1989-1990) but understand there are two versions: JB42 and 62RI. I do not know the difference between the two versions. How can I distinguish them? Thank you!

    Zoom B1 Four vs BeatBuddy Mini 2

    It really depends on what you want/need. A couple of years ago, i was looking to add drums to my playing just because it sounds better. I got the Zoom B1. Not a bad product by far, but it had all kinds of functions like the ones you mentioned which only made handling more complicated. Just too...

    Question about Beatbuddy mini 2

    Thanks Aloe, my problem is not the headphones which are too quiet (they work fine and drums are loud) but the bass is very quiet and i cannot make it louder. I need to put the sound of the drums much lower through the BB in order to hear my bass. The input volume of the bass on the BB is way too...

    Question about Beatbuddy mini 2

    Hello, I am plugging my bass directly into the BB mini 2 but I can hardly hear my bass. I tried with both passive and active basses but not much different. I can reduce the volume level of the drums to match my bass but then it is extremely soft, can barely hear it. I just have normal...

    left-handed vs right-handed

    As a lefty, I can only recommend you to play righty if you can. I unfortunately, can't. You are extremely limited in guitar choices as a lefty, same with color. I would have probably more than double the basses I have now if I would be a righty. Plus, you will not subject to the Ford T...

    Which guitar to choose? (schecter)

    My choice would be the Diamond P. Used to have one and regretably sold. One of the best sounding passive P i have ever played!

    So tell me about Schecter

    To answer your query on Schecters, here is my story. When I came to the US some 10 years ago -legally for work..- i decided to play bass again (amateur, at home) after a 20 years hiatus. Went to tbe local GC to try basses and was attracted by the looks of the Stiletto Studio. I had never heard...

    Others have issues with posting on the Reverb website?

    After carefully looking at the offers under "mint" it is clear that for Reverb, "mint" also means "used". In each "mint" sale, the description at the bottom of the page will say "Mint (used)". Also, you can read their description of "mint" as "to truly be mint, it needs to be just shy of Brand...

    Others have issues with posting on the Reverb website?

    Quite dissapointing... I spent an hour - at least - posting some items on Reverb and have the following issues: 1- It takes much longer than to post on eBay, but most importantly, 2- If you sell something that is new, you are not allowed to mark it as "new". According to Reverb, "new" is...

    New 2019 Schecter Jazz Basses

    The Diamond J (passive) and Diamond P they had a couple of years ago were killer basses (I love Schecter and think they are under-rated). I wonder how the new J-4 sounds compared to the old Diamond J. Maybe the same electronics (they both have 2 band EQs, passive, with push/pull volume) but the...
