    Anybody using an ART channel strip as a preamp?

    I'm talking about either the voice channel strip: VoiceChannel – Tube Channel Strip with Digital Outs – ART Pro Audio Or the pro channel strip: ProChannel II – ART Pro Audio Both look like decent options for a bass preamp. The voice one especially has parametric EQ with the right ranges and...

    Considering converting my Conklin GT-7 to a six-string

    As the thread title says, I'm kicking around the idea of converting my Conklin GT-7 to a six-string. Seven is too much, but I *really* love the sound of this bass. There's some magic going on with the pickups and preamp that I just love for rock, punk, and slap. On that last note, slapping is...

    Line6 G10S Stompbox Wireless

    Anybody have an experience with the Line6 G10S (the new stompbox version)? I'm thinking about adding one to my mini pedalboard and would love to hear opinions.

    HX vs individual pedals

    I'm trying to decide between doing a multi-effects like probably HX Stomp vs. a small collection of individual pedals. My primary gig is playing in church. I need a decent sound in the room, but we also get recorded every week for a live stream so I want the tone direct to the board to be good...

    SOLD 2008 Warwick Corvette Standard Ash 5-string

    2008 Warwick Corvette Standard Ash 5-string $500 I bought this locally on Craigslist. It's one of the Corvettes with a swamp ash body, finished in Nirvana Black with black hardware. It's got the thicker ovankol neck, standard Warwick string spacing (I think 17mm), and all passive electronics...

    SOLD FS: 5-string Blowout (Warwick, MIA Fender, Tobias, Ibanez)

    I'm cleaning house. I collected a bunch of basses trying to find what works for me, and now that I discovered the Lakland 55-02, I'm done searching. It's time to get these out of here and turn basses back into cash. General Sale Terms - I'll take just about any kind of payment, but I...

    Eden Parametric EQ - need help with settings

    Somewhere on the internet I once found a drawing that showed the Eden parametric EQ and what frequency each notch on the frequency selector knobs was. Does anybody have that? Any help would be nice. Thanks.

    Matching levels for different patches on a Pod X3 Live

    I've got a Pod X3 Live. My typical live setup since I got it is to run bass -> Pod -> FOH. My band typically runs its own PA, and we use the aux channels on the board to feed in-ear monitors. The problem I'm having is inconsistent patches. I have a mixer at home that I ran the Pod into to...

    Any flats with tapered ends?

    Before I take a dremel to my Warwick's tailpiece, are there any flats that have tapered ends? The .135 B-string on a set of Chromes just plain doesn't fit unless I take off *all* the wrapping on the ball end.

    New Chromes 5-string set - dead B-string?

    Like the title says, I just switched to Chromes, and I'm loving them except for the B string. All the rest of the strings are very punchy, but the B just sounds kind of thin and wimpy. I don't remember the old strings sounding like that (this is on a new-to-me bass). Anybody gotten a bad...

    Wow, the Pod X3 ain't bad

    I just got one of these last night. My current band is a cover band that is pretty high-tech with in-ear monitors (with separate mixes for everybody) etc. The guitarist uses a PodXT Live to get all the necessary guitar tones. My Markbass rig was a little overkill for the first gig I played...

    How do you track down a buzz in the PA?

    I had a nasty buzz on stage at my last gig and I'm trying to figure out how to track it down. My setup is pretty simple--Tobias Standard 5 plugged into a Markbass 2x10 combo. The direct out from the amp went to the PA. I didn't get too much time to troubleshoot on stage. The bass is new...

    Bad Ass II Saddle Height Adjusters

    I bought a used Tobias Standard, and whoever had it before put a Bad Ass II bridge on it. On the low B, one of the saddle height adjustment screw thingies is stripped--a hex wrench just spins in it instead of adjusting that side of the saddle up and down. Can you get just those adjustment...

    How can I get my band to SLOW DOWN?

    I just joined my first cover band, had our first gig last night. It went pretty well, but there's something I noticed--they have a tendency to rush songs. Sometimes it's the drummer, sometimes it's the guitarist. The part I don't get is that the guitarist told me when I joined that they...

    Markbass - the 3/4 stack of perfection

    Over the weekend I finally got my new amp rig completed and got to use it in a full band rehearsal. The rig consists of a Markbass CMD 102P with a Standard 151HR extension cab. I liked the 2x10 combo for its weight, but it was pretty mid-rangy and lacked a solid fundamental. Feeding 250W into...

    Do you have a website that isn't MySpace? Where is it hosted?

    I'm looking for a good web host to host a web site for my band. We're already on MySpace but that just screams "amateur". So if your band has a website that isn't on MySpace, where is it hosted? I'd love to see the websites too to see what kind of features they have.

    What "stuff" do you bring to every gig?

    Obviously we all bring basses and some of us bring amps. I'm curious what other non-instrument things you all bring to gigs. You know, the utility things just in case something goes wrong. I'm setting up a gear bag to take to gigs and here's what I'm planning on putting in it. Some of the...

    Fewer speakers and more power or more speakers and less power?

    Here's the dilemma: I'm thinking about trading in my Eden Metro combo on a Markbass 2x10 combo and an extension cab. After lifting the Markbass combo to shoulder-height with just my left hand, I was sold since my Eden combo is like trying to carry a couple sacks of dog food into a club...

    Question about Bartolini pickup / preamp install

    I just bought a Brice 6-string fretless and I'd like to basically replace all the electronics. I really like the sound of Bartolinis so I think that's what I'll be going with. I found that you can buy the pickups in pairs or mix & match singles, and you can get preamp kits that are...

    Learning fretless

    Ok, I'm going to try not to get too rambly here, but please indulge me if I do. I just bought a 6-string Brice fretless that should get shipped to me sometime next week. This is my first-ever fretless bass. I've been playing bass for about 15 years now so the instrument definitely isn't new...
