  1. Kopul Studio Elite 4000b Series Instrument Cable

    Review by lat on the item 'Kopul Studio Elite 4000b Series Instrument Cable'

    These are fantastic quality cables at a price that is about the same as entry level cables. I was leery of them, since the price was so low, but I needed to top up an online order to get free shipping, so I decided to roll the dice on them. They are absolutely rock solid cables. I love the mesh...
  2. Breedlove Atlas Studio Bj350/sme4 Acoustic Bass

    Review by lat on the bass 'Breedlove Atlas Studio Bj350/sme4 Acoustic Bass'

    Great sounding bass. Used mostly for practicing when you don't want to bother with plugging in, but still want to hear yourself. Only niggling detail is the neck developed a bit of a hump where it meets the body at around the 14th fret, due to low humidity. My fault for not humidifying properly.
  3. Snark Sn-1x Tuner

    Review by lat on the item 'Snark Sn-1x Tuner'

    These are the defacto standard for clip-on tuners. Why? They are cheap and they work. Are they perfect? No. Sometimes it has some trouble picking up the vibration, but it eventually does and once it does, it seems accurate. Bottom line? It's a functional tool.
  4. Traynor Tc410neo

    Review by lat on the item 'Traynor Tc410neo'

    I use this in conjunction with a GK RB1001II. This pair puts out a ton of sound. The 4 10's have lots of definition, and the cabinet is tuned to put out gobs of bass tone. Shakes the room. I honestly can't think of anything bad to say about it. 59 lbs makes it relatively easy to lug around. It...
  5. Gallien-krueger Mb112-ii Combo Amp

    Review by lat on the item 'Gallien-krueger Mb112-ii Combo Amp'

    Great sound, reasonable price, light weight practice amp that you can gig with, to a point. Got this as an upgrade to an underpowered Peavey 112 combo that just wasn't cutting it. It has a very good tone and does everything I need as a practice amp. I have gigged with this numerous times, since...
  6. Rolls Rpq160 Parametric Equalizer

    Review by lat on the item 'Rolls Rpq160 Parametric Equalizer'

    This unit has no peer as far as price, that I know of. But, price means nothing if it doesn't do what you want. I have gigged with this unit, providing paraeq for a GK RB1001II with a Traynor 410NEO cab. The stage we were on was very boomy and the 4 band EQ on the GK head wasn't zeroing in on...
  7. Gallien Krueger Rb1001ii

    Review by lat on the head 'Gallien Krueger Rb1001ii'

    This head is the complete package. Relatively lightweight, all the functionality you need, great tone, reasonable price, rugged. Four band EQ is centered around tones that typically cause issues for bass, so the adjustments feel intuitive. Native tone is clean and warm, but still punchy. I added...
  8. Schecter Blackjack Atx C-4

    Review by lat on the bass 'Schecter Blackjack Atx C-4'

    Great playing bass. The only small quibbles are that an active / passive switch would be nice to have. Also, the forearm cut out could be larger, for greater comfort, but that's really minor. Neck feels great, tone is great, looks great! For some reason, Schecters are very popular with the metal...
  9. Rolls Pm351 Personal Monitor System

    Review by lat on the item 'Rolls Pm351 Personal Monitor System'

    Got this to mix MP3 with an instrument to a headphone out for practice purposes. Works very well for that. Also has a mic input. This can also be used for creating a personal mix onstage so that you can use IEMs without having to plead the sound guy to tweak your mix. For practice purposes, it...
  10. Phil Jones Bass H-850 Headphones

    Review by lat on the item 'Phil Jones Bass H-850 Headphones'

    Bought these since my pair of Shure 440's were sounding mushy in the low end. Bass response is full and very well defined, which is critical when practicing and needing to pick out the nuances of played notes. These are very lightweight and comfortable to wear for extended periods. Because of...
  11. Zoom B3

    Review by lat on the item 'Zoom B3'

    This is the first and only effects pedal I have purchased. I bought this in 2015, shortly after joining a band where I needed an all-purpose pedal for gigs. Specific effects were needed for certain tunes, a tuner and mute were needed at the mic, and this fit the bill. The overall build quality...
