My band has a potential upcoming issue regarding band gear. Im curious what others think. Im going to purposely be a little vague. "Bandmate A" technically started what would morph into this band. I joined about 6 years ago. Multiple lineup changes including a person that decided to leave after...

More of a rant but...My cover band of the last 5 years (3 years with the current lineup) may be on the verge of collapse. We have an amazing lineup, all work hard and if I do say myself, are one of the top in our area. However, our drummer has been slowly "checking out". He has other interests...

Had a gig last night and decided I would use my Stringray. i thought earlier in the day that i should check the battery and then got sidetracked and forgot. As Im walking out of the house I remembered but everything was already in the car (including me), so I ran back in the house, grabbed a 9V...

Up for sale is my GK Legacy 500 in very good condition. Sounds great. Comes with footswitch, cord, power cable, and original box. $575 shipped to ConUS only. Here are some specs: Four band active EQ Foot Switchable Overdrive with Tone Control (Footswitch Included) "Bump", "Contour", and...

We have a gig Friday night at a relatively small place for our absolute minimum pay. This is essentially our "foot in the door" as they own multiple venues and we could get steady gigs at these places. I "want" to take my most expensive bass as I havent gigged with it in a bit but I keep...

So my LMII (which I bought new in 2009 and have put tons of gigs on) just started acting up. It takes a while for it to come to full volume and even then, I dont think Im getting the what i used to out of it. Anyone have any ideas on what it could possibly be? I checked cables and connections...

After 3 years of a revolving door of drummers and singers, we have finally put together a very talented cover band. New singer is a PR machine and knows all the contact people at venues and has got us a bunch of gigs set up already. Played our first and people were really complimentary...

I have a set of Geezers in my (cheap import) Fender PJ, and I realize that I am just not a PJ guy. Ive had several now and never have been happy with the sound. I was wondering if I could remove the J pickup and wire it to only run the P, or would I have to get the P set? Just turning down the J...

Korg Kross 61 Version 1 for sale in good condition. Sounds great and everything works well. Comes with Korg PS3 pedal and original box. Price is $400 OBO and shipping is not included. Only trade interests are Studiologic Sledge 2 or Roland FA06 plus cash on my end. More info: Stylish and...

So I love my SVT CL, but when trying to adjust the volume knob, there is a real abrupt jump from where its slowly increasing in volume to suddenly loud. And its only roughly around the 2 or 3 mark, has anyone else had this? It doesnt smoothly increase in volume, just get it to 2 or so and the...

Not sure what to do. I play in cover bands, and have played with this band for about a year and a half. We are on our third singer and just had our first gig with him last week. It went ok, however, I play bass, some keys (also with my feet ala Geddy while playing bass) and own and run the...

So the guitarist in my cover band also plays in another cover band. He asked me if I could fill in for a gig in just over a month as their bass player cant make it. I filled in for a fundraiser gig a couple months ago for them, but that was only one set because it was a multi-band event. I only...

Great pedal in very good condition. Helps you get the Geddy or Chris Squire tones! Never gigged and used for recording in smoke free home. No velcro and only a few very minor scuffs. I dont record much these days and play live with my tube amp, so this isnt getting any love. These things are...

I picked up some Aguilar jazz pickups to replace the stock ones in my Squier VM Fretless. I had never soldered before (outside of high school shop class 20 years ago). It went relatively smooth but the pickups are noisey...it does sound better with both full up and I know single coils can be...

Dont you hate it when you put in alot of time getting a band going, get close to it being ready to gig, only to have it fall apart? Ive been working with two singers along with a guitarist and drummer from a previous band since September (2016). We are all experienced musicians, each one is...

Up for sale is my awesome Spector Euro. It has been professionally upgraded with an Aguilar OBP-3 preamp with the stacked mid control. Also has been professionally set up. Looks, sounds and feels awesome. I hate to sell it but I have to pay off another bass I just bought. It has some minor...

I have bought several basses over the years to try to cop some of my heroes tones. Bought my first Ric to try to get the Geddy/Squire tones only to be disappointed that it didnt sound like theirs (still good just not what I hoped for). Same with my Spector. Sounds and feels good but doesnt get...

So I am trying to put together a new cover band with two female singers I met recently and a drummer and guitarist I played with in a previous band for over 5 years. When I was in the band with the drummer and guitarist, one of the biggest issues IMO was the setlist. 95% of the songs were not...

So I have been debating lately if I should sell all of my basses to afford my dream bass...a Wal. I currently have a Ric 4003, Spector Euro, Stingray, Aria Pro II SB1000, Fender PJ and Squire VM fretless. I have wanted a Wal since I started playing bass in 1986. Every time I get a decent sum of...

For sale is my very good condition G&L L2500 Tribute. I love this bass but Ive had it for a while and I want to try some other stuff out. The neck on this has been the most stable of any bass Ive every owned. I set it up once years ago and nothing has changed since! It has the single coil mod...

Hi all, Up for sale is my MicroKorg in very good condition. $250 shipped in ConUS only. PayPal accepted. It has some minor scuffing but nothing major. Comes with original mic and power supply, and very nice Gator Bag. Sounds great, but I have moved onto a new workstation so this isnt getting...

Putting up my great Steinberger L2 for sale/trade, made 7/15/82. Serial number is #333. All original and works great. Has some mojo but nothing major, its in pretty good shape. I go from wanting to sell it one day to wanting to keep it the next, so dont miss this opportunity to own this rare gem...

I recently bought a great Aria Pro SB1000 bass and I wanted to put a detuner on it (like a Hipshot detuner to drop to low D). i found one that I thought was the right model and bought it (used here on TB). But the peg on the detuner is just little too big. I would like to attempt to slightly...

For sale is my Sansamp RPM preamp. Very good condition and well taken care of...some very minor rack scratching. Love this preamp and hate to sell it but Ive got the GAS that Beano cant cure! Comes with original box. Price drop: $215 shipped to ConUS. Paypal please.

Up for sale is my MIA Fender 60th Anniversary Jazz bass. This thing is in mint condition and comes with a hard shell case. Everything is stock. Has the S1 switch which I happen to really like. The neck is perfect and its a very comfortable bass and sounds awesome. Price Drop: $950 OBO shipped to...

Up for sale is my very good condition MXR M87 Bass Compressor. Ive tried but I am just not a "compressor guy". This one sounded the best of all the ones I tried, nice and transparent. Some very minor scuffs and Ive only gigged it a couple of times. No velcro on the bottom. Comes with original...

Filter preamp maybe???

Ok, not so much a rant, just a little frustration I guess...My cover band gigs probably twice per month. The lead singer/drummer lives about an hour away from me, we practice about 30 minutes from me. We have been getting alot of our gigs up in the drummers neck of the woods. We have a band...

Up for sale or trade is my great condition Pork Loin. It pains me to do this because I LOVE (love!) this pedal, but I bought a SVT-CL that gives me that warm overdrive so I dont use it anymore. I hate seeing it just sit there. It has velcro on the bottom that I could remove if need be. For...

Hey all, Recently the weather changed here in PA and the strings on my 2009 Ric 4003 started buzzing on (usually) the first 5 frets, and the strings were very high off the board the closer to the bridge you went. I carefully tightened the truss rods a little which lowered the strings, then I...

Hey all, Just got home from Guitar Center with my brand new SVT CL. I hooked up my Steinberger XL2 first (had it handy) and all I have to say is, wow! With some minor dialing of the knobs, I got a thick but snarly tone. I can already tell its going to work very well in the band mix. Just has...

For sale is my M-Audio Axiom 25 midi keyboard in good condition. There are a few minor scratches here and there but nothing major. Everything works great. I bought this for home recording but dont need it any longer as I dont record much. Its a great keyboard but its just sitting here collecting...

I got a beautiful 1990 Steinberger XL2 a month or so ago, and tonight I finally get to gig it. My band has a carnival gig and I cant wait to bust it out. Our second set is almost all songs from the 80's, so I figured I would play my Ric for the first set (mostly heavier rock stuff) and then use...

Hey all, Just wanted to share my excitement over my new (to me) Steinberger XL2! Got it from ebay and I was pleasantly surprised when I received it. It was made in 1990 and the photos on the auction did not do it justice. Hardly any wear and it must have just been some smudges the sellers...

Has anyone else broken the little plastic tab that keeps the battery door closed on their G30 transmitter? Ive read that alot of others have had the problem of it being very difficult to shut the door with the batteries in, and I had the same problem. At my gig the other day, the battery...

Hey all, This is my first time doing this so please be gentle lol I decided to strip the finish off of a Fender P/J I got a few months ago. So it went well and all the paint is off, and the wood underneath looks pretty good, so good that I have decided to keep the natural wood look...

Hey all, My cover band of the last 3.5 years went into limbo early into the summer when our singer announced she was quitting. She was with the band for over 2 years and we all worked hard to market the band, but since it is what I do for a living (graphic design and marketing) I held the...

Hi all, I am putting a trade feeler out there and offer up my mint condition G&L L2000 Tribute with ACG filter based preamp installed. I purchased this G&L brand new a couple of years ago for $600, the ACG preamp for $300, and $150 for professional installation. So I am putting the value at...
