    Im responding from a secondary account because I am having trouble logging into my main account and waiting for talkbass support to iron it out. As for the double stack, I run both simultaneously. It's a large stage, so I needed to cover it as much decibel-wise as possible.

    Do NOT buy, or trade, anything here via PM (under the radar).

    Really sorry to hear about this. I've been burned once too. Its great that you shared this to help others. You are a bigger man for this. Maybe call out the person who did this to you so he cant pull that nonsense on anyone else.

    I have the TX and always wondered what the differences were. Thanks for this. The Lundahl sounds really nice. I might pick one up.

    How does the Cab 27 compare tonally to the C4?

    I always bypassed Phil Jones gear because in my mind I thought no way in hell will tiny drivers be able to compete in a loud band setting. Then one day I was researching small bass combos and stumbled upon the BG400. The combo alone was crazy loud. Since they were a bit pricey I had to do some...

    Yes, its a Constellation. I first saw the bass in this video. I was impressed with the sound. I called Chopper at Alien Audio to start a build. Here it is in action

    Personally after an A/B comparison, I think the BG-400 sounds much better and is easier to carry.

    I used a Boss LS-2 to run into both amps. I ran a DI from one of the amps to the house. Here is a photo and a video from that evening. Both amps were running at about 70% and you can hear the clarity of the BG400's towards the end of the song as I add harmonics on top of the driving bass line...

    One of the bands I play in is pretty darn loud. We have vocals, horns, keyboards, two guitarists and drums and I am using the amp at nearly max with an extension cab and it keeps up quite well. For 90 percent of my gigs, one BG400 and one C4 is enough, however, for the extremely loud gigs, I...

    The TalkBass String Comparison Sound Clip Thread!

    In total honesty, all of these strings were pretty darn good and I could live with any of these strings. There were some standouts. B52's, FatBeams, Dunlop and Daddario XL's but of these standouts the B52s won it for me. High Beams were nice too. Least favorite was the Fender strings.

    The TalkBass String Comparison Sound Clip Thread!

    SR2000 is a great string but because of the taper-core of all the strings its a very bright string. Out of all of these string to my surprise, the GHS B52 was the loudest most aggressive string of the bunch and won my vote.

    The TalkBass String Comparison Sound Clip Thread!

    I recently raged war on my wallet and did a string shootout. Here are photos of all the strings I tried. I realize this is an extremely subjective test however I always look for the strings which just stick out in the mix the most and I do favor low mids. I will reveal the winner shortly. Any...

    NEW Phil Jones MICRO 7 Compact Combo!

    First I will address the "looks somewhat cheap" part. I highly disagree. I love the carpet covering. To me, this is 10 times more durable than the vinyl coverings which rip too easy. As for the tone. Personally I like my tones round and deep and the M7 has that signature and does it well. The...

    Extremely curious. Since the majority of these basses are at the top of the food chain which basses in your collection are your never to be sold keepers?

    Are 5 strings on the way out?

    Some of my 5 stringers. When you have Keys, Horns, and Vocalist requesting key changes the 5 really makes life easier. In this photo Sadowsky NYC 24 & 21 Fret models, Fender American Deluxe 5, Dingwall Combustion 5, Yamaha Nathan East 5, Yamaha TRB 5PII and NSD 5 String Electric Upright. So to...

    I use a compressor before my amp and love the focus it brings. Here is a video of me playing thru a Micro 7 with a compressor pedal.
