    Best Acoustic Simulator for Electric Upright?

    I acquired an NSI Wav4 electric upright a while back, and it came with a Mooer Acoustikar acoustic simulator pedal. I really like the sound and tone that the simulator provides, but I've never had one before so I don't know a thing about them (I suspect that they're primarily designed for...

    NAHD [New Amp Head Day]: Vintage GK200RB!

    I've been using a GK 800RB for well over 30 years now! As a matter of fact, I have *2* of them, because I almost lost my original one due to a cabinet/ohm mismatch -- I was lucky enough to have found another used one to replace the dead one, which an electronics wizard I know was able to bring...

    New GK Plex Coming...

    I finally pulled the trigger on ordering the final piece to my pedalboard project -- a GK Plex for the "electric bass" side of my rig. I'd been running from the XLR output of my trusty old 800RB into an EV ZLX-12 powered cabinet, but still wanted to streamline things to bring the weight and...

    Powering a Radial PZ-Deluxe via Pedalboard PowerSupply

    I'm getting ready to move into a 'pedalboard' concept for my bass rig (standard electric *and* NSDesign Upright), but I've run into a couple of power snags. The snag I want to talk about here is powering the Radial PZ-Deluxe, which requires *15v* rather than the normal 9v that most pedalboard...

    GK Plex w/Non-GK Power Supply Issues Still?

    A while back I remember reading about some folks having problems trying to run their GK Plex units with non-GK power supplies, such as a power block for a pedalboard. Is that still an issue? Or, was a work-around found (assuming I pick up an older 'used' Plex)?

    Safe to run a vintage GK 800RB without a speaker load?

    I don't know much about the electronics of such things, and I've already blown this amp up once due to hooking an incorrect ohm load to the speaker outputs... so I'm a bit leary of trying new things. I'm getting a powered speaker to run with my Radial PZ-Deluxe pre-amp on my NS WAV4 EUB. And...

    Powered Cabinet for EUB

    After playing electric bass for over 50 years, I'm just now venturing into the world of 'upright' bass. I've acquired an NS Wav4, along with a Radial Tonebone PZ-Deluxe preamp, and a Mooer Acoustikar acoustic simulator (already had it / may or may not need it). To complete my stage setup, I'm...

    Dean Pace barely getting signal at sound board

    I recently bought a Dean Pace EUB, and it sounds just fine thru my little Roland Cube100 combo amp at home. But when I tried to use it on a gig last weekend, running it to the PA system, the sound folks told me that they were barely getting *any* signal, and when they ran the gain up enough to...

    Is The Amp Section of an older SWR 210C Combo Swapable?

    I've never seen one of these in person, so I'm wondering if the upper "amp head" section is designed in such a way that a different 2space rack-mount amp head could replace the original? My primary rig is an SWR 210 Goliath Jr 210 cabinet, driven by a vintage GK 800RB, and it's a combination...

    Acoustic Bass Recommendations, under $999...

    I'm thinking about getting another acoustic bass guitar. Without having played one, I'd really love to have the Martin BCPA4, but simply can't afford the $2K pricetag. I've been looking around on the internet at the various makes and models in the under $8-$900 price range, and I keep...

    Feedback Buster for Goldtone MicroBass?

    I just acquired a used GoldTone MicroBass, and I'm excited to start using it. However, I was very disappointed to discover that the sound hole is slightly smaller than the industry standard, thus making it impossible to use a standard feedback buster to minimize feedback when using the bass...

    Suitable Replacement for GK 800RB?

    For a couple of decades now, my primary bass rig has been a GK 800rb head into either a Hartke 410XL or an SWR 210 Goliath Jr cabinet. I've *NEVER* regretted spending my hard-earned money on that rig, as I absolutely love the sound it gives my old '72 P-Bass! Sadly, my trusty old...

    Gig Bag for "over the shoulder" use?

    I've used an old Warwick gig bag for many years now for my Fender P-Bass, but it's time to start looking for a good, high-quality replacement for it (I've also got a good hardcase for it, but I like a gig bag for quick trips). I've found quite a few high-quality bags out there, but they all...
