I have been in China twice. The 1st time I could not believe the amount of products they copy. - Dell does have a factory there and I have seen how they manufacture all the parts. But this is off subject. (Baird6869 If you really think they make those Chanel purses in the US or Europe, maybe...

What can I say. Yes I am ignorant, otherwise I would not be asking questions on this forum. I guess everybody in this forum is in a way ignorant if they are asking questions. Unless you know all the tricks.

I have tried some other pro-basses as well. Usually when I go to a music store. Some sound really good, but I never got into the idea of spending $500 on a bass. I did try a fender against a squier and for me the difference was not much, only the $300 difference. I do agree on if you are a...

Following a topic on why do you hate that squier. I have to say the bassist should be judged how they play. I consider myself intermediate. I can pretty much play anything by ear within minutes (except jazz). I have some theory knowledge and can read some sheet music. I can play some Jaco...

ok projectmalamute so then im pretty sure you are one of those emos who post those "we play indie" and start naming some bands that they don't even play on the radio or anywhere else. Oh yeah I forgot to put that on my hate list: - We play indie (what the heck is that suppose to mean)

Hate List of Ads: - No amateur equipment. Squier or epiphone. (What the heck. Didn't Paul Mcartney play an Epiphone?) - Early stage cover band (I am pretty sure this means, we are not that good, we cannot read music, we don't have good ear...we kind of suck) - Pro gear/gig ready gear....and the...

I always make sure to tune before any practice. Get a tuner, or cheaper and easier they sell E-tuners. It is the size of a small pencil, you can use it to tune E, on the E string and different E positions of the neck on other strings. In my opinion, with a fretted bass, when you tune the...

1. The guy thinks that by being louder, it sounds better. 2. The guy doesn't understand the words "please turn it down" 3. The guy doesn't understand the words "i got a headache, let's turn it down" 4. The guy doesn't want to wear ear plugs cause he says he doesn't hear himself 5. The guy...

I have been using fretless electric bass for some time. And I always wanted to play the double bass. Although I always thought this was too huge of an instrument to carry around or just to leave it at home. I would like to use it with a couple of effects to experiment with some jazz and...

Since I started playing with my band and the constant fight with the guitar to turn it down, I use earplugs. So I have been wearing these earplugs twice that I bought at a local drugstore for like $5. I see in the forums people talk about Sonic earplugs for like $20. I guess these are just...

It depends on the songs. Right now I'm in a band that wants to play covers for those songs you hear on the radio every day for the last 10 years. For example those STP or Nirvana songs. I am so sick of them I quit listening to the radio. I mean their albums have more songs than just the 3 they...

green day's guitar was full of sticker when I went to see them. There are plenty of bands out there that put stickers on the instruments. Whats the big deal. Unless Green Day is not a professional band?

My goal is to have fun but also learn to play with a band, play with pro equipment and eventually get gig experience. We all have day jobs, so I am not in a hurry to get gigs. Although I think the only conflict is between myself and the guitar. It is kind of difficult to deal with somebody that...

I have been playing (rehearsing) with my current band like 4times. These are people I met on craigslist. The drummer and guitar played before a couple of times already. And the singer play with them once before I came into the picture. The 1st time, we played 3 covers which I am not that...

I am new to pro gear but I need to get soon a head and a cab. Thank you all that replied to my previous posting. I went from ignorant to entry-level. Reading all previous posts on Avatar, I decided on buying the B210. But I dont know which one is recommended: - Carpet, tolex or heavy...

From reading all posts I made some conclusions: Combo amp: - Does it have room for growth? If I get something like Carvin BR610 (which i just checked is a heavy mother), later on can I hook up a Cab to add on. And how many more cabs can I connect to it?...Do I really need to connect more cabs...

I am looking at the BR610, but Im not too familiar with the language - What are they talking about as of "225w at 8 ohms, 400w at 4ohms and 600w at 2ohms" - It says free footswitch. What would I need this for? Next time I go to a bar I will pay attention where the sound comes from, cause I...

I think that to like Jaco you have to like jazz, or at least have your goals way up high to try to play like a superb bass player. I guess is like trying to surf. You dont go and hit the big waves the first day, first you start practice on the beach. Try something easier, like the beatles or...

I have been playing bass for fun at home with another guitar player, but now we found other musicians as well. (None of them with gigging experience whatsoever) I would like to see at least from my part what I need to get to play small bars. I only have a 30 watts practice amp and obviously...
