I switched to flats about two years ago and I absolutely love them, the feel, the sound, etc. I recently switched bands and am now playing top 40 pop. Any suggestions on how to get a better tone for pop music out of flatwouds? ANything I can set on the amp/eq? If it helps I'm playing an L2K...

The singer in my cover band quit today. He agreed to do the gigs we have already booked through the end of November. So we aren't in a terrible hurry to find someone. Any tips for finding a singer? Places to look, questions to ask, things to look for during the audition?

I live in MD and it is extremely humid here. However, the temps have started to drop and I turned off the A/C in my house a few days ago. Last night when I went to practice I noticed that the action was much higher than normal on my bass. I'm assuming this is a humiduty issue since it's never...

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Going for 250. If I didn't already own one I'd be all over this.

I joined a cover band about 2 months ago. Our singer has not ever been on time to practice or a gig. Not even once. And when I say late.. I mean like hours late not 5 or 10 minutes. We even started one gig late because he said he had a flat tire, which we later found out he had lied about...

Not exactly sound related but.... I'm looking to buy a small light set-up for my band. We play covers and are just starting out so we play mostly small bars. Any advice on what I should get? Would be nice if it was something that could be built off of in the future.

I'm putting together plans for a fEARful 151566. I was thinking of running LED rope lights or EL wire around the edge of the cab under the spear grill and maybe around the speakers. Here's a link to what I was thinking of using: Subcategory Items - ThatsCoolWire.com Has anyone ever...

I have a problem with my rig. I am running a carvin b1500 into an avatar 1 x15 and 2x12. I'm getting an intermittent static/crackle into just the 2 x12. My first guess was a problem with the tweeter because when I turned the volume knob (attenuator?) it seemed to affect the noise. So I...

My guitar player is constantly complaining that I am not playing loud enough at practice. He has a marshall half stack an I am running a carvin b1500 into a avatar 2x12 and 1x15, both 8 ohm. The guitar player suggested that I run two speaker cables into each cab instead of just one because the...

Is it normal for a mute switch to mute playing, but not the pop from plugging in an instrument? I've got a carvin b1500 and when I was switching basses at a gig last night I got a loud pop when I plugged in the second bass. I thought that I had forgot to turn the mute switch on, but it was...

My setup is a carvin B1500 hooked to a an avatar 2x12 (not neo) and an avatar 1 x15 (also not neo). Both cabs are putting out noise and neither sounds blown. The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to keep up with my guitar player's marshall half stack. Is there something wrong with the...

I found two cabs for my rig on craigslist and went to pick them up yesterday. While I was playing through them I hear a toilet flush.... and water started dripping on my arm! I looked to see a hole in the ceiling with an exposed and leaking pipe. Apparently it had been leaking for some time...

I had my first audition for a classic/modern rock cover band last night. I'd spent a week learning the songs and I decided to add a little flavor to some of the more bland ones. Nothing huge just a few fills and pickups. Is this an acceptable practice for being in a cover band? I thought so...

After several years of playing in garages and basements, I've decided to join an actively gigging band to do some classic/modern rock stuff. Shows will range from small to medium and may include outdoor events. PA will be hit or miss it looks like. I've already puchased a Carvin B1500 which...

I'm looking for a replace neck for my G&L L-2000. It has three bolts but I can only seem to find 4-bolt replacements. Any ideas where I could find a 3-bolt neck?
