When I was at band practice last night the weirdest thing happened with the BB. I plugged in the cab (GK 2x10) and plugged in the bass (Fender standard Jazz) and turned on the BB. No sound was coming from the speakers and the power LED was blinking. The blinking power LED is suppose to indicate...

Hey guys, I've got a nephew who's looking for a new career. But since he's colorblind (the red /green type) he may not have a wide selection. He likes working with his hands and wants something technical but I'm thinking he'll have to be more realistic. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm trying to remove some (really a lot) soap scum from the shower doors and walls. I see a lot of products out there that claims to remove soap scum but I'm not convinced. So far I've narrowed it down to a few items: 1. vinegar, corn starch, and dish soap. 2. Bar Keepers friend 3...

I went ahead and bought a new Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 last week. So far, I'm very pleased with the quality of the build and the ease of use. I've been using a Tascam US100 for the last year and I needed something with phantom power. Installing the drivers for it was easy and quick. It came...

I just found out I have a strong red-green color blindness. 1 out of 10 males are color blind and 1 out of 120 women are color blind. Some people go through their entire lives without knowing. Take this Ishihara test yourself. You may be surprised at the results...

I'm already disappointed with this film before ever seeing it. A friend of mine, who has read most of Robert Ludlum's "Bourne" books including "Bourne Legacy", said that Jason Bourne was the main character in the book. This means they borrowed the tiltle but was untrue to the book. Is this some...

I came across this when the control plate of my jazz bass was loose because of stripped screw holes. I didn't want to use any glue so I was looking for something less permanent. I know theres probably several solutions out there but I thought I'd just give you guys another option thats less...

I was at a fashion show last week and as I walking up the stairs I saw the News10 van and I thought "Oh who could it be, Monica Woods or Christina Mendosa?" Oh my god, it was Monica Woods, she stood 5 feat from me, I was so starstruck. I got her autogragh and spoke to her for a very short...

I thought I'd share this little quick fix that I've been using for a while. This is for filling in a nut slot. 1. Get a cotton ball and pinch a tiny piece of it and ball it up. 2. Put a drop of Super glue in the nut slot. 3. With a toothpick, insert the tiny cotton ball in the slot and let...

Will Line 6 ever bring back a Bass Pod? None of the HD pedals are tailored for a bassist. And the "Line 6" forum vanished. So...Line 6 is ignoring bass players. Wow..:rolleyes:

Hey, I was looking at the SR series basses and I noticed they revamped their SR basses. It used to be 4 knobs: stylesweeper, volume, balance, and the concentric treble/bass. Now, it's 5 knobs: volume, balance, treble, mids, and bass. I think it was a good decision to get rid of the...

Rondo Music did have an SX Ursa 2 MN 6 3TS 6 String Bass on their website a couple of days ago selling for $170, now it's gone. I wonder if Rondo realized that the price was crazy low and took it off their website.::eyebrow:

While on Muscicians Friend today I was looking at GK stuff and I noticed that ALL of the Backline stuff was gone including the Backline 600. Anyone know why? Discontinued? They got great reviews from what I've read' If it was just out of stock it would have said "Out of Stock". Too much...
