Hi, Is it still for sale? Thanks, Roscoe <[email protected]>

I've had a Hog20 - smaller version of the Hog30, same 12volt batteries smaller 6" speaker - for years. With some modification, it beats the heck out of all the battery operated "bass amps" I've tried. I took it apart and re-housed it with a nice 8" bass speaker from Eminence. . I play...

When I want the big fella way quiet and I still need to practice I thread a bandana through the strings at the bridge. With experimentation you can still hear the pitch (though muffled) and work out the left and right hand.

Here's my two cents Clarky, Recently a luthier friend suggested I try lower tension, than spiro mittel strings on my bass - a christopher hybrid. I play Americana and Jazz - almost all pizz. Contrary to fretless55's comment "(stay away from the Inno. RABs)" I've had partial success with...

Recently I stumbled on an inverse learning tool of your idea. I have been playing around with a mandolin - which is tuned upside down from the bass: G D A E. (in 5ths going up) I have found it challenges my aural conception of chords and harmony because often the root of the chord is in the...

I just got a series II this afternoon and tried it out immediately on my busking rig -This consists of a Pignose-20 rebuilt into a custom cabinet with an eminence Alpha-8 speaker ( my secret weapon for backing up a 6-pc Jazz band on the street) I had been using a Fishman platinum as a pre...

A simpler battery powered amp: Some decent suggestions here but some are too far into the weeds. Our friend just needs enough oomph to back up a small acoustic outfit. I recently took apart a Pignose Hog-20 (20 watts)which operates on two 6 volt (12v in series) lead acid batteries. (motorcycle...

You drive a hard bargain... How about $75.00 shipped? Thanks

Hey Grillmaster, Would you consider lower offers? If so, PM me at [email protected] Thanks

With other folks emphasizing the b7 as a leading note to the IV chord - either in the vocals or high note instrumentation like mando or banjo - the last thing the bass wants to do is jump on that note too. As a melodic flourish, that 7th needs a home base to jump off of. You're home bass! Try...

I'll go for that Obligato G if it's still available. You can PM me, [email protected]

Super Flexibles w Spiro Mittle E sounds good to me. PM sent. Roscoe Vahorne

I have a JT Prism German style bow in very good shape for sale. Fairly light weight 133 grams - I believe it's carbon fiber. The stick color is grey, ebony frog with pearl inlay. Don't know the history, it came with the bass. Plays easily I just have no need for 2 bows. $75 or best offer The...

If you don't get your price email me <[email protected]>, I'll make you a decent offer. Thanks, Roscoe

Hi, I'm looking to try Super Silvers without springing for a new set. Anyone have some used they want to let go for a low price? Thanks, Roscoe

Got the PM and answered. Thanks, Roscoe

Hi, I'm wanting to try Spiro Mittels on my new (to me) Chris 303-T Reach me here or at <[email protected]> Thanks, Roscoe

Though it's not exactly the same question, here's a link to an article about an interesting study (double blind) comparing real 300 year old Strad violins to modern ones. Very few of the professional players could pick out the "old violin."...

Going back to your original post, and considering that you are a serious music student, I would suggest reconsidering your assumption that you just can't afford a real upright or the lessons. I played electric for 3+ years and had all kinds of unsubstantiated reasons NOT to try upright, from...

Very interesting thread I've been experimenting with these sitting techniques with positive results also. Chris, In the picture you posted (of you?) it looks like there's a velvet hair tie over the strings just above the nut. Is that some kind of mute? Thanks

Hi Jay, I'm interested in that fakebook. Is it a special version for bass, or the standard? If your not in a hurry I can send you a check or whatever. Can also be contacted at: [email protected] Thanks

I started on Bass Guitar 4 years ago - at 54 years old. I bought a beat up 3/4 Cremona for $200 16 months ago. I've had one lesson and read a lot on technique. It's easier to hurt yourself when your older and harder to build muscle, but don't let that stop you! I play in two bands now...

I just noticed your month old post. Is the Upton still for sale? Thanks, Roscoe [email protected]

Seems to me (though I haven't read all of the posts) folks are missing an important distinction. One can understand all the theory of music and notation, and even write great music and still not be able to sight read. For example, Dave Bruebeck has written and scored amazing pieces of music but...

Hi Kennettsq, I just saw your ad (11/16/10) I'm not clear from the posts if you have sold the Bass Max. I'm interested. My email is [email protected] Thanks R

Regarding the "custom" ear plugs. I am absolutely sure they are worth the investment, and am planning to buy some. Meanwhile, I have a improvised solution that is better than no ear protection. I have worked in Construction for twenty years and for the last ten have used ear plugs. I also...

I ordered a DRB-1260 in July '09 - a Demo. I recieved the wrong cabinet and returned it. Have seen nothing since but a photo of a half finished cabinet (around Christmas '09) Trying to stay positive but loosing my grip.

Maybe thats why John Entwhistle went to one. I think he had a degree in French Horn before The Who.

I suppose you're right about Modern Walking Bass Technique, Les. I didn't know any better. It was recomended to me. When I started using it I couldn't even sight read. It took me months to get thru the first exercise. But with out any explanation that alone taught me how to feel and hear a...

Hi Juhani, I'm a beginer too. One month now on the double bass (2 years previous on Acoustic Bass Guitar) I have to recomend : Modern Walking Bass Technique -Volume 1 by Mike Richmond, available from Ped Xing Music (you can find it on the web.) I have not seen it mentioned here on TB, but it...
