    Micing setup?

    I'm looking for as many opinions as I can get on this, since I will be starting my first project solo recording project. I have an ESP LTD b-416, Hartke 3500, and Ampeg 410 HE and what I figured would be my favorite setup would be to have a DI out from the hartke, then also have a dynamic mic...

    Bass or Pickups?

    So I am not a person of decisions. I am terrible at making my own choices so, I'm asking my fellow TB'ers to help me make an important decision. I currently have an Epiphone Thunderbird, and I've been happy with it for about 2-3 years now, but it's time for something a little new. My two...

    REAL American Censorship (not a SOPA post)

    Censorship? - Imgur This image shows the headlines/covers of Time magazine across the world, then the corresponding headline/cover in America. And I don't know about you guys, but it really pisses me off that we're spoon fed all these articles keeping us ignorant to what's happening in the world.

    Re-stocking inventory at a store

    Ok, so the music store I work at has pretty much sold all of its bass equipment and we need to get more, and since I'm posting this in amps, I suppose I'll ask about amps. What amps should we re-stock the store with? A variety would be good, and keep in mind this is a small, local store so...

    New Bass players Moving things forward

    So in the guitar world you have people like Guthrie Govan, Andy Wood, Tom Quayle, and even Andy McKee and Erik Mongrain in the acoustic world, all moving guitar onward with a very modern ring to it (not necessarily better, that's opinion) and what new (as new as those guys so no...

    Tom Quayle DI recording?

    Does anyone know of this technique he uses? A friend told me the general jist of it, but I don't quite know the details. All I could gather (and I can remember right now) is that he had the amp's send portion of the effects loop in the input of the interface, and then made sure the master volume...

    How to learn this style of bass playing?

    Dirty Loops Baby (Justin Bieber cover) - YouTube Can anyone really identify where his roots in bass playing are? It is definitely jazzy, but it's that fusion-y jazz that you can hear wooten and many others playing, and I just can't find enough bassists like this and I would love to, because I...

    2 Pre amps?

    So I have a Hartke 3500 and a Presonus Eureka and I want to run the presonus as an additional preamp to the amp. I want the parametric EQ and the compressor of the presonus, but also I still want the preamp section from the hartke to be sent to the power amp section. I figured running the preamp...

    Effects Loop/Direct Out

    I'm using a Hartke 3500 with a Presonus Eureka in the effects loop, and I want to run it direct out, and was wondering if it will be caught in the mix (obviously I haven't gotten to try it yet). The amp and a post/pre switch for direct out, which leads me to another question, will it only be...

    American censorship?!

    Hey I'm not sure if everyone knows about this yet or not, but this is actually real and the government will be attempting to pass a law censoring the internet, and no one will really be happy about this so check out this site and join the fight against it! I know these rarely ever have an...

    Hartke 3500 vs Hartke 5500

    Well I want to get the 5500 but I'm on a budget (an ever decreasing one :scowl: ) and I can find the 3500 for far cheaper than the 5500 and I was wondering if there'd be a significant volume between the 240W and the 350W of the 5500 at 8 ohms. (yes i realize there's no correlation between...

    Q-tuner

    I know the q-tuner store has been down for ages, but I was wondering if anyone got q-tuner pickups and if so what their setup was like and how it sounded, because those definitely seemed interesting

I play an epiphone thunderbird (not that good I just dont have a lot of money, but hey its not that bad, and...
