Pretty sure this is a goof. Cabinet is priced at $400 everywhere else, here on GC it is $180. I already bought mine, and it is sitting in my house as I type this. So, if anyone wants a decent cheap cab, buy it up! Here's the link: Invalid Link Removed

So, I have been thinking about this for a while. My band is recording its 7 track album, but should we put all 7 on the web for everyone to see? Or, should we simply put the best 3 or 4 on there, and use that as a reason for people to buy the album, for the remaining tracks? I am torn, because I...

My band is going to the studio starting next weekend! I am pretty excited, as this will be the first time my bass playing will be recorded. We will be getting a pro recording for free because the guitarist/vocalist is going to IPR in Minneapolis for recording, so we are recording as a "school...

This may be a terrible idea, but my band has booked its first show at a metal festival on my 21st. I, for one, am super excited about this birthday gift. This will be my first real show with what is easily the best band I have ever joined. I can barely sleep because I am so psyched! :hyper: I'll...

As the title suggests, I tune my 5 string bass B, F#, B, E G#. This means the B string remains a B string, but all the other strings are tuned up to their respective notes. This makes the tension crazy high, and it makes it hard to play some of the faster passages, and is just generally...

Me and my brother had an interesting discussion the other day. He is in an all-original Hardcore/Metal band. They booked a show with 5 other bands or something. Only one band, one that "brought a crowd" was getting paid. I don't know about the other bands, but this was my brother's band's first...

Before everyone flames and says "use the search bar, dummy" I have. I used the search bar here, and Google. I couldn't find anything that addressed my question in a way I liked. My question is, I want to quit my band, composed of a guitarist I met randomly, my brother, and a drummer he met...

Here is my situation. I am in 2 start up bands. Both are all originals, one is straight up hardcore, one is metal. Anyway, I just joined one about 3 weeks ago, the other I have been trying to build for a good few months. And, both bands only have a tattered bit of what could be a song. I am a...

Ok, first off, sorry if this is the wrong spot to post this, but it is my best guess. Now, my question. I have joined a new band. It is a band drawing influences from some American Hardcore bands like For the Fallen Dreams and The Ghost Inside. This new band tunes guitars to A#. I tried drop...

So, the singer I once raged about in a previous thread has offered me a place in his band. Do I do it? That is all.

Hey guys! I just bought at Warwick RockBass Corvette 5, but am having a small issue. On the B string, the 3rd and 5th frets buzz, and on the E string, just the 3rd fret buzzes. I tried playing with the action on those strings, but nothing. I must add that I can work with my hands, but have...

I just got the bass mentioned in the title, and want advice on strings to use. I want to stick with the factory string gauges, but no company sells those in a pack that I found. Also, it is suggested that a B string .125 or over should use a tapered core. Should I live by that and only use taper...

I will have to post pics later, I have to sweet talk the girlfriend into letting me use her camera. But I can tell you about it! :smug: The thing does have quite a fat neck, so that will take some getting used to, but its all good. The neck is smooth as glass, and plays wonderfully. The finish...

I was bummin around on Ebay last night, when I stumbled upon a wonderful deal. I used to play only Ibanez basses, but have recently fallen in love with Warwicks. While looking for a new 5'er, I stumbled upon a RockBass Corvette. Now, obviously its not the $2k Warwick I want, its just a...

So, this new metal act I am helping form is going well. We need a drummer and singer. So, while talking about it, guitarist mentions he wants 2 singers in the band, preferably one male/one female. So we can have clean singing and growly/screamy vocals, one doing each. I am open to new ideas...

Ok guys, the farthest I have gone from standard tuning is Drop D, but the band members suggested tuning us all to C standard. I think this is a good tuning, as it keeps all the roots, octaves, etc. in line, therefore it is easy to learn. However, would it be suggested I get my nut filed for...

Ok, I need someone to slap me in the face and tell me to sack up. Here is why: I had a band, the singer quit. We found a new one. Well, the drummer now started college, and it takes a ton of his time. I do not hold this against him, school is important. However, the band pretty much does...

So, I am in a new band, it is still being built, as we need drummer/singer. But, my question is this: One of the guitarists is my little brother, soon to be aged 16. Will this become a problem when/if we start playing gigs? I assume that he could still play any bars or 21+ stuff, since he is...

So, my band lost a guitarist, and now are bass, drums, and just one guitar. This kind of leaves some "empty space" in some songs where I would rather have more of a wall of sound. Any tips that might help me fill that space up? I also, of course, don't want to combine my sound with the...

Ok, for starters, if this is the wrong area to post this, could a kind mod please move it? Thanks in advance. Now, for the rage. Prepare for a somewhat long post. So, some of you may recall, if you have good memories, I posted a thread about my singer/guitarist not coming to practice...

So, I have a very unique issue. My band's Singer/Rhythm guitard seems to always have something better to do. He always acts pumped to practice, has high (sometimes) insane goals that I like in a person. He is a halfway decent guitarist, and can write radio-friendly crap (not necessarily a bad...
