I’ve got a “new to me” Fender American Performer Mustang. My favorite bass at the moment is my Mexican mustang, with rotosound 77 short scale monel flats. (40-50-75-90). These strings are too short for the string through bridge on the American mustang. I’m trying to get as close as I can to...

One of the local studios was hit hard last night. I’m just posting a screenshot from Facebook. it’s the audiolab in Garden City Idaho. I’ll post more photos if anyone’s interested

i just found this on my local CL. Refreshingly funny in a sea of metal. I've actually played multi band shows with the drummer.

Band drama. (Redundant I know) Bit of a novel here. I'm in a three piece acoustic folk Americana band. No drummer, just me and two singer-songwriters. I joined about a year ago. I'll call them Chuck and Curtis. Recently, while recording, Curtis was skipping out on scheduled studio sessions...

This is what I emailed my "lawyer friend" this morning, edited for relevance and anonymity. ____ ____ I may need a little help again, hopefully not. My wife is going to be working on this today, and it may be resolved with a couple phone calls. So, Right around 5 years ago my wife and I moved...

Disclaimer:NO POLITICAL INTENT I realize this can be a touchy subject that could easily be taken down a political road. If we can, let's not take it there. And no, this story isn't about me. A close friend of mine got married about a year ago. Previously he had been in a long distance...

This is a family (mostly) band I'm in, though anymore most of our gigs are fairly low profile and mostly for the fun. (We do get paid though)

I couldn't care less about who won or lost, I just found this hilarious.

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] I'm not interested, just found it interesting.

Having a wiring issue in my house. My wife definitely overloaded a kitchen breaker, lost power, so I checked the breaker box and nothing was tripped. I reset both kitchen breakers anyway and still apparently no power, but, as I later found out, the outlet behind the refrigerator is a GFCI...

A bandmate just called me, wondering about suggestions for a sub. He got a gig doing sound for a touring act, at our local bar/restaurant, very small "venue". We've played it numerous times, very familiar with it. The date is in April, so no hurry. He's spoken with the "tour manager", seems to...

My bandmate has one of these hanging on the wall at his place. Looks like they were made between 75 & 85. I don't know anything about its backstory but I can ask. It's in rough shape, fretboard looks bad, hardware is very rusty. I think he said it does work. Yes I know, horrible pics. If...

Why are they necessary? I'm no plumber, but why not engineer a toilet that can handle even the largest of fecal transactions? Maybe it's like engineering the efficient driver that can't be blown. It just seems like something we maybe could have achieved, I mean space travel and all.. BTW, no...

Foam surrounds, looks too shallow maybe as well. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

I helped my kids build this on Christmas Eve after we got 8" of snow. It started out upright like a normal snowman, then temps went up, then plummeted here.

Could this be done? Specifically, at a gig. Vocals, guitar, & keys in monitors, maybe some fiddle. Powered monitors are run off aux 1. Guest musician gets a passive floor wedge run off aux 2 with the MB200 powering it. 1. Straight into the front input? 2. Or aux in with no gain or EQ? If aux...

Saturday night, had everything setup, levels checked, 30 minutes to down beat. Had a beer, relaxed a bit. About 5 minutes till, boss asks if we're ready, should they kill the house music. So we step up, I'm mixing on a combo mixer from the stage. I hit the mute button, & I feel something give...

Long post warning. I also posted this as a response in another thread but thought maybe it DID deserve its own thread. - I just had to deal with an unpleasant and similar situation not worthy of its own thread just yesterday. A band member booked a friend of his wedding on New Year's Eve, in...

I'm in 3 gigging bands, one of them with my dad. He has a decent small PA, which I've run and maintained, and often stored, for years. He's let me borrow it for a couple gigs with my other bands lately, and when I was on the phone with him yesterday, asking about another, he mentioned just...

All today, after a not so fun gig last night. Got me wondering what's next? I know, could be worse, first world problems and such. It's what I get renting from a crooked property management company, lesson learned. I'm sure next the transmission on my truck will go out or something.

Warning: Boring Read I've been recycling my glass at a large nearby recycling facility for years. I would save up glass in 5 gallon buckets, large recycle bins, for six months or more at a time, take 5 minutes to dump them. They recently moved across the city. Any other options for me...

For sale on my local CL. I have no need for it, I just think it looks cool and could probably get a good deal. Just wondering if it's even worth looking into. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

I did my first official "gig" tonight with a band I joined about a month ago. Back up to audition night. I show up and completely click with the guy (guy A)who is the foundation, the creative BL. His stuff is a bit more unorthodox than the other (guy B)singer/songwriters stuff. Takes a bit...

One of the cover bands I play in is looking to downsize/upgrade our monitor setup. Guitarist (BL, owns PA)calls me today and is going to GC to check out the Mackie srm150 & the Behringer 205D. (If in stock) Four members, we are trying hard to reduce stage volume without going in-ear. Small to...

Sorry, very long and detailed. This morning I'm driving my oldest daughter to preschool, and my 2 year old is also with us. The roads are horrible, solid icy ruts every where. The road I'm on is 5 lanes, two in each direction with a center turn lane. I'm in the left lane, and I notice a...

I had a behringer eurolive B1800 given to me. I'd like to TRY and sell it, but I want to make sure it works. The only amp I have to test it with would be my main bass amp, Genz Benz shuttle6.2. I just want to make sure I'm not gonna damage it. I would assume it would be fine, just to test...

I have a genz benz 2X10XB. I want to upgrade my 10s, and possibly the tweeter. According to my math, the internal volume of the cab is 3.37413. the port is weird. thats grizz the husky the square part of the ports volume is .199652, then there are four round tube ports inside that. the...
