Hey guys and girls... Here's my current setup.. I play with an Alternative/Classic Rock/Hard Rock cover band (soon to be writing some originals too) and we play everything a half step down, unless it's originally that way already (D# tuning) to better suite our vocalists range. We have a...

Looking for some places to get the lowest prices on vinyl stickers, 1" buttons, and or those silicone wristbands for my band. Not looking to spend a ton of money being we'll be giving these out for promo purposes and not selling them this time. Any help would be awesome. Thanks Guys!

Don't know if this is the right area or not but I need some help. Playing a last minute fill in for a band this weekend and I don't have time to memorize all the songs. Instead of using a music stand and shuffling papers around is there an app for the iPad that I can use to put my tabs and song...

Well thanks to my tax return, I can get a new Fender American Special Jazz Bass. I'm going for the Candy Apple Red with the black pickguard. I think it looks pretty sweet, and the one I played at the local guitar center had an amazing tone and felt great. I'm going to order it online...

I was wondering if I bought an XLR to 1/8" mic cable, or one of the XLR to USB cables out there, if I can use my Seinheiser E835 vocal mic to record vocals on my computer with pro tools? Thanks guys.

I see two different kind of Fender Standard Jazz Bass's which strike my liking... The cheaper, which looks the same, but I believe is made overseas, is around $600? while the American Standard Jazz is about $1000. Can anyone tell me the differences and if it's worth the extra $400 for the...

Hey guys, My current setup: Musicman Ray34 4-String Ampeg PF-500 Amp Head GK 4x10 Cab. I play as part of a Classic Rock/Alternative Rock band. We do mostly covers. We have one guitarist, I'm the bassist, a drummer and a vocalist. We're established and seem to be doing well so far...

My Gear is as follows: Musicman Ray34 4-String Bass Ampeg PF-500 Head GK 4X10 Cab Tuning Pedal Line 6 Wireless I run the PF-500 head to my cab and also run the XLR output from it to the PA system which directs my low frequency sound to our subwoofers with the built in crossover on our...

Hey guys, I filled out an online application and passed the pre-employment test online for the local Guitar Center. Within 25 minutes I got an e-mail saying that based on my answers of the assessment, they invited me to complete a full application on their website. I completed the...

Hey guys, I was wondering if you'd critique my first ever solo project. I posted a demo of an intro instrumental song. First time recording with Pro Tools, and with Midi Drums and Keys. I just bought a guitar yesterday, so I'm going to be redoing the guitar tracks when I get a little...

Ok, this sounds weird, and I really have no idea where to put this on here. Was playing a gig a few weeks back. In the 3rd set, my left hand (fret hand) wouldn't open. What I mean is it felt locked shut, and I had a heck of a time changes strings and notes on the fretboard for a few...

I used the search, and really didn't find anything that relates to me and my equipment. Was wondering if I could get some help. I really want to make some bass covers for youtube. My setup in my computer room includes: Fender Rumble 75 combo bass amp iMac Computer Cables, 1/4 to...

I had my bass setup in March. (Musicman Ray 34 4-String). The tech was very knowledgeable, and has lots of background in music and stringed instruments and told me the wood used on the Ray 34 line is absolutely terrible. He got the instrument setup for me at the time and eliminated the fret...

I have a Fender Squier P-Bass which I learned on. I just use it as a backup amp right now, as the input jack seems to be coming loose and the sound is just muddy on it. Should I upgrade the pickups, replace the input jack and have it setup, or should I just sell it to a beginner and buy a...

I guess this could of went in the Amp forums too, but I feel this pertains with the active on board preamp of my bass as well, and I notice it mostly during live shows. I have an Ernie Ball Ray 34 Bass with the active preamp on board (the low, mid, treble knobs). I usually keep these right...

I mostly play in 1/2 step down tuning, with a couple songs Drop D in my band. I've found that the Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinkies I'm using now (Medium Gauge) are a little flimsy in these tunings. Would going to a heavy gauge help? Also any other suggestions on strings and gauges for these...

Might be a dumb question, but I haven't played my Ampeg PF-500 with the line out (XLR) yet. When I connect the line-out with the XLR to a sound system, will I still get sound from my cab (I have 1/4 out to my cab)? I'd like to use my cab as an on stage monitor behind me and still plug...

I'm looking for a wireless system for my bass. I've seen an Audio-Technica Freeway 200 Series for $100, a Line 6 RelayG50 for $350 and a Sennheiser for $499. Does anyone have any insight or suggestions? I've never owned a wireless before.

Hey guys, My primary bass is a Musicman Ray34 and I love it. My band plays everything 1/2 step down, so obviously that's what my bass is tuned for. We do have a couple of songs we play which are drop D tuning, and I wanted to get another bass for this so I can easily just switch out...

Hey guys, My band is going to be playing our first full gig (40 songs) in the middle of May, and up to this point, we've just been opening for other bands, so I've just used the bass rig from the bassist of the headlining band. Now that we're going to be playing our own gigs and headlining...

Back in September I bought a new Musicman Sterling Ray 34 Silverburst bass. (4 string) I've loved this bass as it plays nicely and looks amazing, but here's my issue... Lately I've been getting fret buzz on the low frets so I took it to get setup by a guitar tech at a local guitar shop...

I'm getting my bass setup currently as it's been having a ton of fret buzz. I chose to have it setup for 1/2 step down because my band plays all of our stuff in that tuning. Now the issue is, I play in a church band every so often as well and we play in standard tuning there. How bad is it...

Hey guys, I'm new here so I don't know if this is where I should post this or what, but I was looking for some help. I have a Musicman Ray 34 4 string bass. Recently, I've noticed when I play on the top 2 frets of my E string (F and F#) that I get a horrible rattle in my strings. At...
