    Which LaBella Flats?

    I've tried a few different sets of flats in the past, switched to rounds for a bit, and now I'd like to go down flats avenue once again, this time with some LaBellas. Currently, I'm running DR Hi Beams 45-105 thru the body on my P bass. Which set would have a similar feel/tension to the Hi...

    Am I Ever Using All of My Watts?

    I have an Aguilar AG500SC that puts out 500 watts into 4 ohms. I also have a GS212 4 ohm cabinet to be able to receive all 500 watts. But I was wondering, are all of those 500 watts ever being used? For example, if the master volume is maxed, am I getting them then? Or, what about when I...

    My String Comparisons (audio)

    These are the strings I've tried so far on my 2008 Fender P bass, since starting bass again November of last year. I thought I'd share so people could get an idea of how certain strings compare to each other in the same situation, especially the Chromes and TI flats, as those seem to be the...
