I believe these to be dual-coil. They were a pretty close replacement. So I picked this up for $400 and decided...

    I am wanting a great Pino sound for my fretless, warm oc-2 like, analog. I am also wanting an octave pedal that will also go up, digital, little more synth -like in sound. I have narrowed it down to either the Micro Pog or the Octa-bass. I think I might as well bite the bullet and buy both. I...

    Fender Bassman

    I found an old fender bassman stack at the club I played tonight. It's been there for about 4 years according to the owner. I believe that the cab is one of the 2x15 cabs. It looks to be a match with the head. The owner believes the equipment to be around '66 or '67. Does anyone have any idea on...

    Double Bass How many of you Bi-amp,use ears, or just your amp?

    I was just wondering how many players of rockabilly out there have gone thru the "I can't hear myself, what can I do?" problem. It was the slapping tick sound that I had a problem hearing with onstage. It's in the same frequency range as the guitar, cymbals, and snare. Which are also the loudest...

    Has anybody comapred the flatwound DR's to the Thomastik-Infelds

    Has anybody tried the DR's flatwound string in either the 5 or 4 string set. I was wondering if they are as "flexible" as the Thomastik flats. I found the Thomastiks to be way to flexible for myself and I was wondering if the DR's were a little stiffer. Kind of between a conventional set and the...
