The Source Audio reverb is pretty good. I haven't used it personally but their demo on their YouTube channel sold me. Check it out if you haven't already. I have a TC Electronics Hall of Fame reverb. I like it and don't personally notice any low end loss, but I'm also not exactly drowning my...

My Wonderlove is on its way from Prymaxe now. Happy birthday to me! Will post pics when it gets here. :D

This. If I had the money for one, I would definitely be springing for it. I just can't justify it...not like THAT has ever stopped me from buying gear. :D

Funny I find this post...I just had a friend that I can relate this to. Last semester, he wound up failing out of school and taking the following semester off. He really isn't into the whole "living at home" idea and, obviously, had some self esteem issues that followed. He played computer...

I'm looking at buying a GK Neo-212II and 112II to go with my SM6.0. Can anyone chime in with GK/GB experience? I'm looking for a 212 that's got some mid range to it, although I don't know much about cabs so this is basically starting from scratch.

Thanks! This amp rocks, even through headphones...

Can I get a number as well? Forgot to ask for one. :)

FedEx dropped this off right before I went to my night class. Sadly, I won't own any speakers till Labor Day (broke college grad...afford what I can when I can haha) but when I do, I'm probably going to mix it with a GK Neo-212II and a 112II.

I'm so pumped for that DI you have no idea. I was just in the market for one a couple days ago and your post reminded me that I need to just wait till this one comes out. I think the line in/headphone out features on it alone make it awesome.

I'm certified! I love scuba diving, mostly night dives. I've got an Open Water certification though, so nothing too advanced, but there's tons of cool stuff to see diving. If you get a chance, do a night dive as well as a day dive. You'll see so many different things it'll amaze you.

I mute the lower strings on my bass (B & E strings when using a 5, E otherwise) with my forearm when I slap the A and higher strings. It took a bit of practice but I find this is the most effective way for me. YMMV of course.

+1 Keep a bottle in my cabinet just for myself. Great whiskey.

Wow, this is a ton of information. I guess I need to just start practicing. Does anyone have a good way to practice the modes of any given scale? Or any tricks you use to remember how they sound?

No, It's only that double stop that's being looped. I don't think my solo is in E. Man I'm terrible at this lol I've got almost no clue what I'm doing.

I'll start by being blunt: the modes of the major scale have been something in music that have just confused me regardless of how much research I do on the subject. I understand how they relate to the major scale and that they all provide different tonal centers for soloing. What I do not...

Yeah, I know it's the truth. It's just that I somehow doubt that my fingerstyle technique will ever be the same volume as my slapping. It's ALWAYS significantly louder.

Thank you, this was exactly what I was looking for but didn't find after a few minutes of searching. The FEA is looking really really tasty right now. :help: Random side question, just to make sure I'm looking for what I actually want: I'm looking for something that smooths out the volume in...

Yes, I searched; and yes, I looked through Bongo's website. It was just a lot of information to sift through. What are the best options for a multi-band compressor in a stomp box? Any that anyone would recommend? I know of a couple rack mount ones that I like but I really don't want to...

Guys, get some gig info in here. Stressed college student needs more bass. I'm already a member so no need for a new number, just checking in. :)

+1 :p

Cool! I've always wondered how one of these sounded. Thanks for posting!

I own an MXR Bass Octave Deluxe. It's great but I have issues with it when I play my Sterling. It gets glitchy sometimes when I play C on the A string or lower. This doesn't happen when I use my Squier jazz 5. Aside from that one issue, I love the BOD. Very growly, which is what I wanted...

I just threw a set of DR Lo Riders on my Sterling. They sound great, but I prefer a tenser string. To MY memory (which doesn't work nearly as well as it should lol) the Sunbeams were a bit tenser and I prefer those. Sunbeams are my favorite string, but I would have no issue switching between...

Same.

Ah. I was in a hurry and didn't read your post carefully. Thanks for clarifying.

Define "lower note". Are we talking something on the E and A strings or D string? I don't plan on using this feature a lot at all but for one or two songs at most.

Two questions for those who have used these effects before: 1) How is the whammy effect? I'm looking to cover something like Disposition by Tool and hoping this fits the bill. 2) Does everyone find the compressors to be "usable"? I listened to the clips someone uploaded and they sounded good...

It's my main bass and I love it. Still looking for that perfect string set to put on there but as a whole I love that bass.

I've never seen the 8 ohm version online anywhere before. Interesting...guess it's time to fire up the ol' Google.

+1 My dream rig is Mesa. If I had $3800 I'd be looking at that. Heck I could still probably have a few hundred left over after to spend on a shiny new bass too...:hiding:

+1 My SA J is a fantastic bang for the buck. The pickups are getting changed eventually but the stock ones aren't bad at all. Solidly built, still feels like it did day 1 after 8 months of owning it.

These videos might help you: Eden WTX260 It's the same amp as the WTX500, just with about half the wattage. Genz Benz Streamliner 900 Ed Friedland's the man. That's as good as any YouTube review is going to get. Hope those help!

Very cool! I might have to do this myself if I wind up with an MB210 this summer. :D

Informative post. Thankfully I'm not shopping now or I'd have spent $300 than I intended to. :rollno: I'm planning on running the RH450 with 2 2x10 cabs which would give me plenty of volume in conjunction with the 450 watts. Plus I figured if I need more than 500 watts anyhow I should have...

+1 to this list. I'd add "modesty". The other bass play in my jazz band has an ego and it's annoying. She thinks she's better than she is. She's great on upright, don't get me wrong, just not...showing me up on my Musicman anytime soon. :hmm: Fighting with egos is annoying because I strive...

+1 I played through the exact stack the OP is looking to buy at a friend's gig a few weeks ago. It sounded to me that when all of the amp's EQ knobs were at noon, the bass was already at +3 dB. If you roll down the bass a bit and toss in a little low mids, the boominess goes away...

I'm buying an RH750 when the funds finally present themselves this summer. From what I see on Musician's Friend, there isn't any difference in pricing and you get more features such at Tweeter Tone and more power. Might as well get more watts if it's not going to cost you more. Can't make...

+1 Lifting weights and having a solid core helps in general with managing weight no matter where you encounter it.

When I live in Milwaukee (when I'm at college) I'm on the south side. I'm sure there's some vacant space someone would let us crank some amps in somewhere around here. Heck, half the restaurants down here are vacant anyhow. :atoz: I can look around and see if we can find something.
