    Cab cutting in and out

    My cab is cutting in and out what could be the cause of this? I have isolated the problem to the cabinet I just haven't had time to open it up and explore. It is a 4x10 of unknown manufacture but I suspect it is a Crate as I bought with my BT350. Thanks in advance for the help

    Am I crazy?

    For a while now I have been wanting a new bass, then I thought about how much I enjoy my current bass (Fender MIM Jazz).
