    Recommend A New Pup For Squire P-Bass?

    I, like so many, put SDQPs and a BadassII on my cheapy squier P. Which is ok, but please consider that if you get the coated BAII, the string ground will be defeated and some sanding or a good copper tape shielding job will be in order. I chose the latter and have enjoyed the other benefits...

    Why are people obsessed with weight??

    NO FAT CHICKS I mean, who wants to hurt their back or carry around a bunch of gear? If weight wasn't an issue, I would imagine the bass guitar in its modern form would have never been invented.

    I think that any amplifier question asked on this forum boils down to

    "What is the loudest I can get this thing without blowing it up?"

    under powering? yes or no?

    It is not a problem, only possibly a limitation. "Headroom" of wattage on an amplifier is a good thing, it allows you to run your speakers without running your amplifier too hard. The possible downside to your setup is the amp may distort naturally when run on full, then again I have no...

    Over powering a bass cab?

    Headroom is key. I have an AMped PR1832HE and I have run the system with both a Peavy Tmax Bass amp (500w@4) and a Crown XTI1000 (with the tmax preamp). Guess which one sounded like delicious bass and which one farts out at low spl?

    Want to switch to bass, how to tell the rents?

    Women, AMIRITE? JKJK, however I don't see why she would have an issue with you playing bass as long as it didn't cost them anything. If you have spent this much time on other instruments, then trying something else is just natural. Does your mom have an bias against bass, or for piano/guitar?

    Loop pedals discussion, info and suggetsions

    Victor Wooten told me he prefers the RC-20 to the RC-50 and the JamMan I know this isn't really my opinion, but I figured since he is a experienced performer there is something to be said about its on-stage usability. I like my RC-2 with a footswitch pretty well, same as the RC-20 without a...

    Peavy T-max

    Paid $100 for a "busted" one of these that would cut out during shows. Hand-tightened the nut on the front input, has worked perfectly ever since. Best amp ever. Also its got tons of nifty features. The only "request" I would have per se is that the crossover was powered

    Enigma Pedal- envelope filter question

    Thanks Funkinthetrunk, the reason I said that is because it seems to me like there are overdrive/fuzz controls on the Enigma, adding a little grit to the funky drippy sound.

    Enigma Pedal- envelope filter question

    I have been jonesing for a Qtron+ for a while, but saw that the Enigma has come out recently (or I am just really out of the loop). Basically, is the Enigma a Qtron with a Bassballs in the effects loop? I would be more interested in having a Qtron with an effects loop where I can place a...

    P or J - Have we all chosen correctly?

    This is like choosing a flavor of ice cream. Sure, some people have preferences, and some people certainly will never choose a certain variety, but in the end you are still eating ice cream, so its a win-win.
