This is a guitar cabinet, not ideal for use with bass beyond practice volume. Get a bass cab

1: Hartke 3500 2: Fender Studiobass (Head cab conversion) 3 Trace Elliot ELF 4: Custom Tube Pre amp into a QSC power amp

The Grateful Dad (my nick name for the sea of GD tribute bands)

For Chicago Blues? Id disagree

I switch between a P bass and a Gibson EB3 with little difficulty (I also will jump from 34" P bass to a 40 something inch upright bass)....

Who told you that you needed one?

Id pretty sure the headstock on that bass is not long for this world based on damage on both sides of the neck, Id return it ASAP

Squire Fender Gibson Ibanez Hofner

If the gig and relationship is important to you I'd give the money back

Yes, only pedal is a tuner typically and I typically set the EQ flat and adjust to the room, it never takes more than 5 min to dial in

I bring a p and j to gigs but typically only use one for a gig, the other is for a back should something happen (which I only recently started doing this summer after breaking an A string mid gig)

Stop using tabs

Then don't use your pinky. It is not required that one uses their pinky, it might make some passages harder to play but if there's a will there's a way

At what point are you responsible for knowing what you're buying? The body looks small in the picture...you weren't mislead.

Im not really particularly attached to any piece of gear I own, they're all tools to me.

Pedal Steel Guitar (struggling to learn Lap Steel at the moment) Bass Clarinet Mallet Percussion particularly the vibraphone(I can play some having picked it up a bit during high school band but have no real chops on the instrument)

You could use it as a practice amp but just don't push it too hard or you'll likely blow the speaker

I still haven't met an ABG that does it for me, that being said I play upright

This is false, a driver of a given size can have radically different sound depending on the cabinet its mounted into, is it ported and so on. Go play a bunch of different stuff and figure out what sounds best to you

Its contextual for me in regards to whether it is a suspended 2nd or extension of the 9th. CDG is Csus2, CEGBbD is C9

They lost me here, this statement doesn't make sense. The following statement are also red flags for me personally "your pay will be discussed privately, some gigs may be unpaid as we work you into the project" So they're looking for an unpaid intern? "We do live looping"

I played a six for a couple years, I loved it except I struggled to get a good tone out of it, went back to passive fenders 4 strings and haven't really looked back

I mod most of my instruments, the only "standard mod" I have is upgrading pots, cap and output jack unless there already quality components inside the instrument.

The blues scale is more related to the minor pentatonic scale than it is to any of the modes.

I could be wrong but Im willing to bet you bass has an "Aztec" already in it. Furthermore, Mike Watt was playing EB3 basses with Lane poor pickups and preamps added I believe. More info could be found on his website

I play both, they are different beasts but at least all the notes are played out the same, you could walk up to one today and likely get some basic stuff you already know out of it If you're serious about learning upright I wouldn't suggest and Electric upright of any sort, Id suggest you find...

The vintage guitar shop will also offer considerably less than market value, the store will charge market value for the guitar and won't buy it unless they can make money off of it. To get the best price you'll have to sell privately, either reverb/ebay or having on consignment in a shop...

I play with an Irish band that I joined when I was 19, Im now 34 so that's 15 yrs

for low volume it should work fine. Unplug the internal speakers and hook it up to 4ohm bass cab (or two 8ohm) and it would have enough juice to play with a drummer

If you amp say "4ohm min" I would say yes it is likely you'd cause damage

I wouldn't run that amp with an incorrect impedance, if we were talking about an 60s-70s Bassman Id say go for it, the transformers were pretty robust and will handle the mismatch. I would not have the same expectation on any piece of fender equipment post 1980s.

Guitar Amps.... Yes. Guitar Cabs...No

No its not, seeking advice on how to speak to your guitar player about improving tone without coming off like a jerk and upsetting band dynamics would be "management".... this topic really has nothing to do with the bass guitar

John Mayer and Vulfpeck are two acts that seem to be drawing in a lot of young blood from what I can see

Id say about 90-95% is music I genuinely enjoy playing, whether its covers or originals from some of the fine musicians I have the pleasure of working with.

Why is members of the band seeking confirmation bother you? Why is someone going out of their way to make sure they're on the same page as you bothersome? Im in two groups that try to maintain a weekly rehearsal, often someone will send a message the day of to confirm were getting together or...

Either way works, do what you like, both methods will result in 4 ohm impedance

If it was made well Id be tempted. I played a 1966 Bass V in sherwood green, I fell in love with it....but not enough to spend 6k lol

John Entwhistle made me first take notice, Les Claypool made me start seriously studying the bass . The irony is I don't slap or tap, very much a groove player but ole Les was the one that made me shift my focus on guitar to bass

At least for 60s-70s these seem to be the most common bass amps (or amps utilized for bass but not necessarily bass specific) Ampeg: B15 SVT V4B Fender: Bassman (50 watt, 70 watt, 100 watt and 135 watt) Showman Dual Showman Marshall: Super Bass Major Acoustic: 360/361 Sunn: 2000s Beta Bass
