    Could use some help/advice on fretless bass pickup and electronics

    Hi all - this is admittedly one area where I don't have much knowledge, so I am hoping that the collective TB mind with more experience in this area can provide some suggestions. I recently acquired a Clement Slim 4 string fretless bass. It has a Nordstrand Bigman 4 pickup set up in parallel...

    Could Use Some Help on Short Scale Flat-wound String Choice

    Hi all - could use some feedback from those more experienced than I am in making string choices for a new-to-me Epiphone Allen Woody short scale bass.

    Need help on connecting speaker wires to back of Neutrik Speakon Combination connector

    I'm replacing a Speakon jack in my speaker cabinet - I'm a little stumped on what to use to connect the speaker wires to the back of it. The pins for push-on connectors are really small (like 1 mm wide) and unlike many connectors, there are no holes that would allow me to solder the wires...

    pedalboard manufacturer that can power a Arkham Oracle

    Some time ago I was looking at getting an Arkham Oracle and found a pedalboard power supply company (small business) that makes a range of power supplies that can do this. Not one of the big companies that we all know (One SPot, Voodoo, etc) - anyone have any idea who they are? I've looked all...

    Big Shout Out to GR Bass

    I purchased a GR Bass AT-110 350 powered bass cabinet last fall. A few months later, it developed some problems - buzzing sound at certain frequencies.

    Suggestion Bring back "Home"

    Overall, I think that once the bugs are ironed out, the site will be an improvement. One feature that I really miss from the old site was the "Home" feature, where you could see at a glance what was new material - as I recall, when you clicked on "Home", it brought up latest activity in...

    Double Bass Thinking about trying Obligatos - Solo or Regular?

    Hi all - I've been working through whatever posts I can find on Obligatos. Thinking of trying them on my Eminence EUB to address recent issues with knuckle/finger pain on my left pointer finger.

    Question for our experts - why aren't more amps designed for 2 ohm loads?

    Greetings all, I have a question about the choices that amp designers/manufacturers make about design characteristics of amp heads. Most modern amps seem to be designed for a 4 ohm minimum impedance. There are a few companies that allow for a 2.67 minimum, and only a few that design all of their...
