    Why ???

    P bass does sit better in a mix. I'm biased, I'm a P bass guy. I bought a Fender Affinity J 5-string just to give 5-string a try and was TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY by just how good this $150 bass is !!!!! Just AMAZING ! Just got a MIUSA P bass 5-er, going to get to try her for the first time this...

    Wireless system - low strings question

    Most likely the signal does not "stops at 40 Hz as the lowest transmitted freq". Most likely the signal level is just down -3db at 40 Hz but is still present and audible.

    A $1,000 power cable?!

    PLEASE be careful with these special power cables !!! They MUST ALWAYS be stretched-out as straight as possible. If you must coil it because it is too long you HAVE to use a clock-wise coil in the Northern Hemisphere and a counter clock-wise coil in the Southern Hemisphere or the Earth's...

    How did you discover Frank Zappa?

    Had not previously fully appreciated his music but had the pleasure of seeing him in concert in Boston, early 1980s I think. Two distinct memories remain: 1) Was very surprised at just how talented a guitarist he was 2) He spent the ENTIRE show seated on a stool with his back toward the audience

    Does the cabinet your using make you look more professional?

    Just cannot remember the last time I saw a rider for any Pro band that did NOT specify an AMPEG SVT-810 cab as the #1 choice or as a backup. Yes that would look silly in a jazz club.

    Two 4 ohm cabs in series = rise in impedance???

Example cable for stock-wired cab input jacks: The "+" output of the amp needs to connect to the "+"...
