Hello TB, I've narrowed my search down to MarkBass for a new Amp/Cabinet and I had a few questions for you current MB users. I'm looking at the Little Mark Tube 800 for the amp, but is there a difference from the tube 800 versus without the tubes? Obviously one has tubes and one doesn't...

I've got a bunch of recorded swell's if you are interested. I use BFD2 and adding my recorded swells works best. Let me know if you are interested. Tim

For the price the Mac Mini is the best solution. But, what is your budget? Tim

Glad you are enjoying the class, and thanks for sharing your thoughts after each day of instruction. I was supposed to be in that class, but something came up and I will have to see about jumping in on the next one. Thanks again and keep us posted. Tim

You can't go wrong with the Avalon U5. I'm not biased, either. lol Tim

What is your price range? Tim

"if anything"... nothing concrete yet and no particular reason. I do like the current bridge on it. Tim

:D I knew it was only a matter of time. :-) Tim

I've done a lot of reading and listened to several sound clips of people that modded theirs, but I don't think I will. Probably just the bridge, if anything. Going through my Avalon, I love the tone that I get and there is no reason to dump any money into it. If this tone isn't what I am...

Hey guys, I know they are millions of threads here on TB about SX basses, but I bought one a couple of weeks back and have been amazingly surprised by it. I haven't played a 4-string in about 10 years, but this thing is definately a sweet little bass for under $200.00 bucks. I will try to...

There is a thread on TB where Geddy's tech breaks down his setup. He uses an Avalon as well as a few other things in there. Search for the thread because it has a lot of good info in it about Geddy. On bassplayer.tv there is a video as well. Tim

Mics preferences are subjective and you have to figure out what mic works best for you. I personally would only use the 57's for instruments and the 58's for vocals, but that is just me. They say the only difference between the 57 and 58 (not the Beta's) is the screen - rounded versus squared...

Shure Beta 58A for vocals and a Shure Beta 57 or SM57 for the acoustic. Hope this helps. Tim Beta 58A http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Shure-Beta-58A-Mic?sku=270120 Beta 57A http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Shure-Beta-57A-Microphone?sku=270121 SM57...

I am right handed, shoot left handed and am left eye dominant. I am definately right handed. I play lefty because it feels natural to me. I'm not sure why, but that is the way I started playing 12 years ago and I just stuck with it. It was easier from a dexterity standpoint to teach my left...

Here's a pretty good interview with JB from back in June, 1981 in Guitar Player. I stumbled on it while searching for some transcriptions. http://www.lucaspickford.com/transintberlin.htm

Jeff, I am thinking about taking your one week intensive class in March 2010 and have been playing bass for about 11 years. I know it's hard to say without actually knowing much about where I stand in terms of bass playing, but is there anything I can do between now and then in order to...

Great thread... and then this happened.

You could probably leave that up to interpretation. How many came to see a show, versus learning something from one of the greats? School is in session when you are in the same room with Wooten.

I guess I should have placed a rather large caveat to the fact that I think Jeff is an amazing player and teacher. My question was not meant to knock him, rather I found it interesting because that came directly from his website and I am sure only he approves what goes on there. Michael Vick...

This little piece from his bio on his site threw me off a little. "Surprisingly, he is a pioneer of slap bass when he brought this new percussive-style bass playing in 1979 to the second Bill Bruford album, “One of a Kind”, on the tune called 5G." I always thought Larry Graham was the...

Doing anything Jaco note for note is not always easy. http://www.lucaspickford.com/transcome.htm

My sunny and weekend toy.

More good reading. http://www.firewire-1394.com/firewire-vs-usb.htm Tim

Does Presonus support running a 64-bit O/S? I think it does, but wasn't sure... just something to keep in mind. I know ProTools doesn't. The AMD Phenom II X4 3GHz quad core processor will be plenty. Max your RAM out and that will be one heck of a DAW. Tim

If you format you will lose data, so be careful. Those options work great for certain types of data, i.e. audio files, plugin settings, etc, as far as moving them over... Keep in mind you will still have to reinstall any plugin software after you install the O/S. XP still works great in you...

SOLD... Thanks!

I just bend the strings above the nut. Although it doesn't give you the same effect, it does sound nice and it easy to do. Tim

Yes, it is still available. Tim

Victor Wooten's solo performance from Bass Day 98 will blow you away. He does so many different things throughout his solo that it really makes you realize that he is a freak of nature. Any Jaco video does it for me also. Tim

Bass Driver DI in great condition and rarely used. I always used the 9 volt battery option and I don't have the power supply. I will pay for priority shipping inside the CONUS. $100.00.

This item is now sold. Thanks for all of your inquiries.

Price reduced to $300.00.

Price cut to $320.00 and I will pay for priority shipping inside the CONUS.

The U5 is amazing, IMO. I was totally amazed and sold when I plugged into one at the studio a few months back. It is on my "buy this month" list. The only thing it is going to do is make your tone that much better, and $400.00 is great deal for one of those bad boys. You should be able to...

Hardly used and still like new. The is the rack mounted pre-amp/cab-amp simulation and effects unit. I will pay priority shipping inside the CONUS. I have some pictures and will upload them later, but if you have seen what a PODXT Pro looks like new, you have seen them all. It is the middle...

The Major scale (Ionian, 1st mode or root) and the Minor scale (Aeolian or the 6th mode) are probably the most popular from a "mode" perspective. You should know all 7 modes though. The Maj/Min Pentatonic and Arpeggio's are more patterns/scales that you will want to memorize as well. If...

Sorry for the late reply, but what IEM system are you using? Most of them have a built-in mono/stereo switch. The make and model would be helpful. Tim
