    PICKGUARD for geddy lee jazz bass?

    I'm wondering what pickguard would fit a Geddy Lee Jazz Bass? It has a 10 hole pickguard and it's made in Japan. I was hoping to get an official fender brand pickguard. I had bought one off the internet from some other site before that was supposedly made specifically for my bass, but the holes...

    Ampeg SVT 610, adding another cab?

    My current setup is an Ampeg SVT4PRO head with the SVT610 classic cab. I've played out with it a couple of times so far, and I can't help but feel that it barely has enough output. My ex-drummer, as well as my new drummer both play very loud. You never know what kind of issues you may run into...

    rack question

    I have a Korg DTR1 rack tuner. My Ampeg SVT4pro head has an outlet in the back which is 300W max. Can I plug the tuner into it? or should I get a power conditioner?

    Rack case, please help?

    I am trying to decide on a rack case. At this point I have and Ampeg SVT4 Pro head and Ampeg 610 cab. I know that the head has a small vent in the back and larger vents on the side (which is a stupid design for a rackmount head). The head is 3U. Im not sure what to do about the side vents, I'm...

    How to rack svt 4 pro?

    I heard the svt4 takes up 3 rack spaces. The vents are on the sides of the head, so I should leave empty space for ventilation. What size rack/how many empty spaces should I have?

    Ampeg SVT PRO4 + Ampeg SVT 610

    My buddy says that the Ampeg SVT PRO4 will be too powerful for the 610 cab alone, and I should get an additional 15". Is this true?

    Ampeg SVT: 610 vs 810

    So I'm looking to get a new bass rig. I've read some reviews on the Ampeg SVT 610. Some claim that it is almost, or as good as the 810. (the 610 has additional ports). I've been leaning toward the 610 because it is smaller and easier to lift. Im also trying to decide on a head. Debating the...

    Upgrade to a rig?

    So I've always used combos, and I am currently using a GKMB212. I am pretty pleased with the portability, power and tone. As far as gigs my band usually plays small to mid size bars. I am always D.I.'ed anyways. However, there is a very good chance that we will be playing at Vans Warped Tour...

    Lets see your colored/mirror pickguards

    So I have a Geddy Lee Jazz Bass (black). I just ordered a purple mirror pickguard. Black/purple are basically my band colors and i figured it might look cool. I cant wait to see what it looks like. Also, I figured it would be cool to have a thread for pics of custom picguards. :)

    Radio interview

    I had an interview with the band and we played 2 songs for a local college radio. I wasnt really pleased with my performance, I had to use an acoustic bass with a pick (mic'd), (aparently radio stations dont like you using electric). It was kind of akward for me, but I think our bandleader did a...

    GC Pro Coverage - worth it?

    So im thinking of buying an amp online with a 15% off coupon. Is it worth it to add 2 year coverage for $79.99? If I dont add the coverage I should still have the manufacturers warranty right?
