I would much prefer to play 1.5 hr set (15-17songs) and call it a night. But in all the bar bands I been in they wanna play 35+ songs for 4 hours. To me, its not fun after a while and it becomes a real chore to have to play so many songs. Even real super star legendary bands, the usually play...

For me, playing at a bar where there's just a handful of people or the people that are there are completely disinterested in the music is a real letdown for me. In fact, rather not even play those gigs at all. My bandmates want to play it anyways because they say they gig for the love of...

I can play it at 50% tempo, maybe even 75% tempo , but 100% tempo not a chance, its just too fast.

Can anyone link me or tell me about quality patch cables to link together effect pedals? The one's with right-angle connectors. Some of the reviews I read online tell me that the cables don't always last and aren't of the highest quality, so if anyone has a recommendation please share.

Right now I am between bands and when I am not in a band I get really down and depressed. For me, sitting in a room by myself and just playing along to CDs and is so boring, the only thing I enjoy is playing in a band setting, especially when everything is clicking. I've been scouring the...

I bought a behringer effect pedal , this thing is made of very cheap plastic, I stepped on it a few times and the casing started to break. Who in their right mind makes a product that you are supposed to step on out of CHEAP PLASTIC? I just hope zzounds will take it back and give me a refund.

I need to get a new stomp box style tuner. Boss Tuner is $99 but for the exact same price I could get Zoom B2 which has the tuner , and a million other features. So should I just get the Zoom and use the tuner, and then later down the road I could start using some of the effects as well? Or...

Anyone know what specific casters would fit for a GK Neo 212-II cabinet? I see a generic casters set sold by Ernie Ball but not sure if that would fit. I sent out an email to GK a few days asking this question but heard nothing back from them and figured maybe someone here would know.

A little rant: I was ready to pull the trigger on the Hydrive 410 which was $599 and then suddenly on all of the sites its $699!!! Also, the LH500 which I bought a few months back for $297 is now $399!! *** isn't gear supposed to go DOWN in price, not up?? It's bad enough gas costs $4.27 a...

I never saw a famous band that has a lead singer who is also the drummer. Does anyone have experience with this? Does it ever work out? I want to request we bring in a new singer, but don't want to hurt feelings. The drummer is a GREAT drummer , but a so-so singer, probably b/c he's trying...

I just got one of those Headstock tuners from Korg. Does anyone else use them and are they reliable enough so that I wouldn't need a stompbox style tuner during a gig?

I'd like to purchase a Hartke amp at Guitar Center, because GC generally runs this $100 off any purchase of $499 or some similar type of deal. Do you think Sam Ash or zzounds.com would honor the same coupon that GC offers?

So I checked out Avatar speakers web site (which looks like it was designed in 1994) and was actually thinking of purchasing a cab, but then I went to the ordering page and they say we should send them an email with our credit card info??? I'm no expert, but I would have to say that is EXTREMELY...

I just put on a new set of daddadrio roundwound steel strings on a Fender P-bass. I notice the "A" string is now buzzing when I pluck the string. It only buzzes if I play the open string. If I fret any of the notes, there is no buzzing...If I hold down the string behind the nut there is no...

My band plays in a private space, however my bandmates play in a secondary progressive type band in which they use a different bass player. This different bass player has been playing through my amp. This bugs me a bit as I don't think he should be using my gear. What do you all think...

I plug my bass straight into the amp with no pedals and I like the sound, yet the previous bass player for this band had an entire floorboard, so the drummer who really doesn't know much about bass amplification and effects keeps telling me to get pedals. I ask him why, he says because 'they...

So I picked up one of these Fender Rumble 350watt 2x10 combos for $399 brand new from GC. It sounded great and loud when practicing alone but as soon as I brought it to the rehearsal and the drummer started playing and the guitarist fired up his tube amp, but bass sound was all but gone from...

The LH500 offers 500watts at 4ohm / 350watts at 8ohm The HX410 says it handles 1000 watts at 8ohm So does this mean the HX410 is not a suitable match for the LH500 because it can handle 650 watts more than the LH500 outputs? What would be the proper cabinet wattage to get if I wanted to...

I just got one of the LH500 heads , it says 500watt at 4ohm, 350 watt at 8ohm....So I guess I would want a 4hm cabinet rated at least 500 watts correct? Could anyone recommend a cabinet? I would like to spend $400-$500 max.

Seeking Longview by Greenday , it was published in the Bass guitar Summer 2003 issue. Currently not available from anyone on ebay. If anyone happens to have it...I can trade...

Looking for a pro version, I can make out the chord progression by ear, but need help with some of the bass rhythms. Please PM if you have this.

If anyone has accurate tab (not the ASCII text variety), I'd be interested thanks!
