    Bigger bang for the buck??

    Hi everyone, I'm looking to buy an amp head that's at least 500w, my budget is about 350-400 (but less than that would be great), I play punk and metal, I want something that will last me for quite a while (at least 5-10 years), and I love it LOUD. I'm looking to get a used GK MB500, I've heard...

    Stupid (but quick) question about cabs.

    There's something that I'm not understanding about this cab. If the cab says: "Max Power: 700W Program 350W Continuous" What does this mean? Is it a 700 watt cab? Or a 350 watt? Thanks!

    Compressors... Help! :)

    I know that compressors have been discussed sssoooooooo many times, but I've yet to see a thread that has what I'm looking for. It seems like most people who want a compressor want it because it makes your bass sound more punchy and other things like that. But that's not exactly what I'm after...

    Need help with cabs. What does this mean?

    Hey everyone. I know a bit about heads, but I don't know anything about cabs. I really have no idea what Ohms are and whatnot. So, if the back of the amp head (450 watt) says: "Minimum load 4 ohms." I assume that means that I can't use a cab with it that is any less than 4 ohms, right? Tell me...

    Fender necks into Fender bodies...?

    Hey guys and gals! I've decided that I want a specific Fender P body to accompany a really nice (my favourite) Fender neck that I have. But, before I buy this body, I want to know if any Fender neck will fit into any Fender body (strictly basses, of course). And if not, how do I know if my neck...

    Boss LMB-3

    I'm looking for a compressor to even out the volume of my strings. My E string is much louder than the rest and, yes, I've adjusted the pickups as much as possible. I was looking at the Boss LMB-3 and I was wondering if it will do what I want, and do it well. I don't care about tone, that's not...

    Heavy top, Light bottom.

    Hey guys and gals. I decided that I wanted to get a custom string set (Rotosound Swing 66 SS) from Bass Strings Online because I don't like how light the regular D and G strings are, but if I get a heavier string set, the E and A are too heavy. So I think I wanna get .060 .075 .080 .090, but I...

    GK or Fender??

    I want to buy a new combo and it's either gonna be the GK MB115 or the Fender Rumble 350. I want to know which one would be better for a punk kind of sound. IMO I think the GK will give me more of an 80's rock type sound, where as the Fender will give me a kinda more natural sound. I play a P...

    Fender Rumble 350 vs GK MB115

    Hi everyone. I'm looking into getting a bigger, better combo amp, and I wanted to know if anyone has any experience with these two combos?? Money isn't an issue because I can get them for the same price anyway (used). I'm a punk bassist and I'm looking for a really punchy and CLEAR tone...

    Fender MP Jaguar/Jazz Bass Special

    Well here's my new bass. I just got it yesterday... I didn't want to post this as "NBD" because it's not exactly new (it is in new/mint condition though), I got it on kijiji. It's also modded, which is the main reason I bought it. Here's the pics: So I got this for $400 which is pretty...

    Shielding a P Bass

    Hi everyone. I know nothing about shielding but basically all I know is that it reduces single coil hum. Can anyone give me an idea of what it might cost to get it done? Or are there things it depends on? I'm just looking for something close to what it would cost to get a bass shielded. Thanks :)
