    Aguilar TH350 at 8 ohms

    So I've recently purchased a Barefaced Compact, and I'm looking into a new head as well. I played a TH350 through one of the Aguilar cabs a few weeks ago and it sounded incredible! I'm just wondering however, with the Aggie only pushing 175w at 8ohms, will it be enough with the compact? I've...

    Ashdown Little Giant 1000 channel not working

    Hey guys I've had one of these amps for about 4 years or more now, and although the gross overestimation of the power is irritating, it's been a good piece of kit.

    Custom finish on first project

    Hi guys So I've been toying with the idea of assembling my first bass from parts.

Does anyone have any...

    How much do you charge?

    I've just been offered my first paid gig. They charge like 3 euro entry so we get a portion of that, AFAIK. I'm not expecting much, it'll just be cool to get paid for once. Anyway, my band are recording a demo and will be sending it to pubs around the city in the hope of some bookings, so I was...

    Customized my Hoppus bass today...

    Sort of. A couple of months ago I came home drunk and found and old pokemon sticker book. In my drunken state, I thought that these would look cool on the pickguard of my Mark Hoppus bass.

    "Custom" 1963 Gibson

    Invalid Link Removed Did Gibson really make these? Or is it the far mre likely circumstance that it is extremely heavily modified and has as such lost its value? Either way, I think it's got some pretty cool mods.

    Just to put things in perspective...

    I often see people on here complaining about the price of basses. Most of these people are living in the USA or the surrounding areas. As someone from Europe (Ireland), I have to say you guys don't know how good you've got it. Let's take an AmStd Jazz bass: Invalid Link Removed American...

    Best bass for 1200 euro/$1500

    So I've been saving up for a while for a Sandberg. It was 1200 euro, but I've been having second thoughts. I think I might want something different, maybe a used Ricky or the likes. What would you recommend? There's not much options where I live so buying online is my best option.
