Tried to figure it out on my own but I'm still a bit rusty with pairing odd ohms (my current setup match perfectly) Positive Grid BIAS Rack 600-watt Amp Match Rackmount Amplifier Head 600W @ 8 ohms, 300W @ 16 ohms My cab is a 610HLF: 4 ohms @ 600W Thanks for the help!

Invalid Link Removed Thinking about pulling the trigger on one instead of the RBI. What do you guys think?

I've taken up three-finger picking recently as it will allow me to pick faster, more technical lines easier, however I wanted to check something before proceeding with my practicing I've watched a few videos instructing picking with three fingers and all have stated the the best way to pick is...

I need to know if the body can fit into a case that has a 14" x 21" body cavity! Would love if someone that has one could measure it out and let me know ASAP :) Edit: Just to clarify I ordered a new $$ two days ago that's currently in the mail and I need to pick up a case. I found one online...

Anyone run just a sansamp into their cab? I'm getting one real soon and am also purchasing a power amp within the next few months for it. Just wondering if its jamable without the power amp. (Noob question I know I just want to double check)

I'm planning on dropping to Drop G for the band i'm in. However, I'm torn between .166 at 36.5 and .174 at 39.3. I know the tension needs to be around 35-45 however, I'm concerned as to whether or not the tension at 39.3 will be too tight with the .174 set as well as whether it will be too loose...

Hey folks! I just recently became a part of a technical death metal band and was wondering if anyone has experience with thumb sweeping. There are quite a few parts in some of the songs that I would love to add a bit of technical flavor too. I have very very minimal experience with this (mainly...

I'm thinking of running a SansAmp RBI and a power amp for my live setup. I've been looking at Carvin power amps (specifically this one [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]) but haven't heard too much about them. Anyone have experience with them? Also, Carvin racks, I've been looking at those too.

I've been using my vocalist's Carvin 810 forever (I'm a broke music student attending NAU) and finally picked up my first cab today. Ampeg 610HLF for $550. The guy that owned it just wanted to make room in his garage and apparently used it lightly since he bought it less than a year ago. It has...

I've noticed quite a few bassists roll ring, middle, index. I've always rolled index, middle, ring. Thoughts? Am I doing it backwards? I ask only because while watching one of my favorite bassits (), he prominently uses it in the breakdown around :30.

http://www.guitarfetish.com/Guitar-And-Bass-Kits_c_74.html Has anyone purchased one of these? They look pretty cool and seem like a fun weekend project. I wonder how they play once they're built.

Hey, hope im posting this in the right subforum... I'm playing a show this weekend in Phoenix, Arizona (elevation: 1150 ft). I live in Flagstaff (elevation 7000 ft). My question is when transporting my bass (in it's case of course) should I loosen the strings to prevent neck bowing and...

Hey everyone, I just got in some new hipshot ultralites and some hipshot triple lockdown bridges for my 6 string brice. Being the broke college student that I am, I'd really like to install them and set up my bass on my own (not only because it's cheap but it's something I've wanted to learn for...

Anyone have a Brice with Circle k's? Not sure if I have to buy a new bridge to load them. The top load looks a little to small to load circle k's. Link Removed

My current bass has room for pickups sized 4.375" x 1.375". I was originally going to throw in some Barts but after hearing Delanos recently I want to throw those in. Here is where my dilemma is. The Delano set I want (SBC 6) is 4.65" x 1.26". Is it safe to do a little sanding inside the pocket...

I'm planning on playing in drop F/G# soon on my 6 string. I checked out the tension chart and I'm torn between .166 and .174. Does anyone have experience using these sets in this tuning? Thanks!

Hey guys, I recently became a part of a new project that plays in Drop F# and Drop G turnings. I will be purchasing a new bass specifically for this project. My question lies here however.. I'm going to be using Circle K Balanced 5 string .166s as both F# and G fall between the 35-45...

Hey guys, just looking for a book that could help me with theory. Just a refresher course. I took lots of theory in school a few years back but I've noticed im starting to forget some. Thanks!

Didn't really know which thread to post this in so, has anyone ever had work done through this guy? I emailed him about a week and a half ago on a possible order of custom knobs and he hasn't replied to me yet. It is possible he could be backed up, but I just thought I'd check with my fellow...

Bought a six string Bruce hxb-406 back in may and over the course of this year will be replacing EVERYTHING :). Bought my first replacement today, a Graphtech Black Tusq XL 3/16" nut slab and will be buying my Hipshot Triple Lock-Down bridges within the next month. Very excited to get this going :)

I'll be getting bart mk6cbcs soon and am thinking of getting an ntmb 3 band for my onboard pre, but, before I drop all that money I want some final thoughts as to any others I should consider. I mainly have either an obp3 or a glockenlang 3 band. Any thoughts? I've always heard that bart pickups...

I saw a pic of a bass recently that had what looked like a wooden pickup cover over the entire pickup. There were no holes for poles or anything either. Wouldn't this affect your tone? If not then, im totally going to look into getting some. They look sweet

Whats the benefit? I'm doing some work on my six soon and might purchase one if they seem worth it

How far out do you clip the strings from the posts? I usually clip about 3 to 3.5 inches but what is actually recommended?

How is it? I'm contemplating buying a cloth. From what I hear it's not bad.

Will it work? I know there's a ton of threads on here about flats (or tapewound) but I'm new when it comes to flats. I'm thinking about throwing on a set of flats on my fretted six if they sound good. Also any recommendations of brand helps too.

Hey guys just got my hands on one of these bad boys but need to retube both power and pre tubes. Any suggestions of tubes? I've never bought any before or had to retube so much help is needed! Thanks!

Hey dudes, it's a guitar post, but I can't find anywhere else to put this inquiry :/.. My friend and I are interested in building a 9 string guitar using for sale parts on Agile (they sell pups and bodies separately there), however, we can not for the life of us find any place that will sell...

Bartolini MK Shape Soapbar Bass Pickups - 6 String I'm thinking of order these as a birthday present to myself (8/16, I'll be 22). I have a Brice HXB-406 that I run active. Just making sure I can run these active. I know MK1s are active but I'd rather be 100% positive these are active as...

Well, I just ordered some rounds literally 2 days ago :/, but the curiosity of flats has got the best of me. Are there any companies other than roto that make 6 string flats? I checked to see if fender did but the 9050s only come in 5s :/. If not I'll end up buying the Rotos, but I just wanted...

I currently play EB regular slinkys (have my entire journey through bass). However I am looking for some stainless steel or nickel strings that are as bright or brighter than EB and super long scale (long enough to fit a 35" scale six string string thru). I play in a technical death...

Okay, so before I make myself sound like a total moron (even though I probably am), I read the sizing guide and everything on how to properly measure each part of your nut on the graphtech site. However, I came up with very short measurements (around 10mm off on the E to E as well as .5 off the...

I recently bought a brice six with 16mm string spacing Link Removed and am looking to replace the bridge (hopefully with a hipshot) but can not find ANY bridges small enough to fit my string spacing My math is 16mm x 5 = 80mm, 80mm to inch = 3.149, 3.149/5 = .629 string spacing Did I do...

I've never considered tension before so I figured I'd ask the pros (you guys) how this set sounds tension wise and if they would work without any problems! C-.030 G-.045 D-.065 A-.080 E-.100 B-.131 I currently use Long scale slinkys which are C-.032 G-.045 D-.065 A-.080 E-.100 B-.130

I recently bought a 6 string with a string thru bridge but when i went to string my bass with 6 string long scale slinkys they were a tad short so i had to string them thru bridge and not the body :/. anyone know of some strings i should check out?

6 String Brice HXB-406 I'm an extremely happy camper right now

My string spacing is 16mm on my six string. Based off the link below, would I be able to use a .699" bridge without problems? The smallest bridge they make is for 17mm spacing :( Invalid Link Removed

Just ordered one :D, can't wait for it to come in! Anyone else rocking brice 6's? Link Removed

Anyone have experience with these? I googled reviews but nothing turned up. Im thinking of throwing some barts in a 5 I have, but these are the only barts that seem to fit the single screw 4x1.5" shape.

I'm looking at some barts to throw in my bass so I checked the page that my bass's specs are listed and found some odd things.. Link Removed It says the string spacing at the bridge is 21/32" which converts to 16mm roughly (if i did my math right. Bear with me, this is the first time I'll have...
