Here’s a modification of an old PJB Suitcase that I got in a trade for a big powerful 2x12 that wasn’t really needed anymore. The issue was what to do with an Aguilar TH700 and's its 4ohm 700 watt capabilities that I rarely need but am glad to have. The internal speaker wires have be...

I have a Carl Martin Classic Optical filter pedal and it bit the dust sometime around 2015 well past it’s warranty. So it sat for a couple years before I took a flyer and called East Sound Research in Denmark hoping for a miracle and they took pity on me and unbelievably issued an RA for it in...

I have an opportunity to pick up this head but would like to clarify whether or not it will drive a 4ohm load safely. The 2 speaker outputs are only labeled 8ohm. Some similar heads from this era of Trace have both 8 and 4ohm tags at the outputs and what info I've found searching old forums...

The Who are doing a 6 show run at Caesars Palace July 29 - Aug 11. Tickets on sale now from $142.00 - $2800.00.

Pete Traynor co-founder of the Long & McQuade empire and namesake to a line of tube amps that are still one of the industries best kept secrets passed away earlier this week. God Speed and Thank You.

I have a Traynor YBA-1 Mod-1 head. It's a 40w, 2xEL34 head made for guitar and I use it for bass as well in my studio through a Berg CN2x12. I recently blew a power tube and replaced the stock pair of JJ's with a matched set of Mesa EL34's. These were the only ones available at my local store...

My neighbor pulled out an old archtop for me to look at recently and the sound post has fallen over. It's about the size of my finger and rattling around inside. Looks like it's been this way for a long time as the top has sunk about 1/2"-3/4" where the bridge sits. It looks like it's a mid 60's...

Well, I plugged my Traynor YBA1-mod1 into the CN 2x12 and it made a dying "pooooo......" sound. All that was left was very faint heavily distorted flapping. Back to the guitar cab and the head works fine. Checked cables, inputs, outputs, 8 and 4 ohm settings on head and same again. Talked to...

I'm looking at getting a powered speaker for a rehearsal studio to run off a Mackie ProFX 8. There are a lot of choices and would like to hear your experiences. I'm expecting to pay around 1k apiece but will consider cheaper or more expensive models if recommended. I'll be picking up just 1 for...

Just received my yearly catalogue from Long & Mcquade. It's Canada's biggest retail chain (over 100 stores & counting) and lo and behold there's not a SINGLE Fender product in it. No amps, no Strats, no basses, not even a starter pack or a strap. And remember, their parent company is the...

Anyone played one of these or know much about them ? It's supposed to give a fretless sound to fretted basses.

The nice folks at Gibson have released a southern rock tribute Les Paul. It's a '59 reissue with a reverse sunburst finish and a little heart of Dixie peeking out from beneath the bridge p/u. Gibson CEO Henry Juskiewicz said " We are humbled by the wide spread support we've received by some of...

Hey TB'rs, anyone have one of these ? It's a guitar case/bag designed to be carried on one shoulder. Suggested retail is $200.00.

Urban Renewal by Tower of Power - Maybe some of it will rub off....:D

Pulled the trigger on one of these yesterday and ..... WOW ! Great tone and response at bedroom levels - it's very loud for 1watt and even the .1watt setting is a bit much for late nights. Got it to replace a Line 6 HD Pro that I got tired of endlessly scrolling through. Only problem is I feel...

I've been playing since 1979 and have seen the bass industry grow from a few manufacturers to the hundreds that now exist. I have always had an eye for the unique builders or those that think outside the box. Leo Fender got it started with a combination of practical electronics and a timeless...

Good day, I use an ART Pro Channel in my studio for vocals and acoustic guitar and would like some advice on what tubes to use in it. There is a preamp, compressor and eq all driven by 12ax7's. A friend replaced the stock tubes 10-12 yrs ago for me and I'm not sure what lifespan they may have...

Good day all......My sons Mustang RI has a problem with the output jack. Not all cables plug in fully, some do, some leave 1/8" of play where the spring clip is not seating fully against the jack. This has no affect on the output however but my question is this: could I adjust the depth of the...

Hey all, I've just picked up a Fender Mustang RI for a x-mas present and the patch cord doesn't fully insert. There is a tiny bit of play but has no affect on the connection. Some of my patch cords insert tightly some do not. Should I back off the retaining nut and cinch up the inside nut or do...
