    Is the bass mixed well?

    Marry Xmas everyone! I am the bass player on this track, and have been listening myself blind if its good or not. My question is, is the bass mixed well? On spotify, I almost can't hear the bass due to all the compression I think. I play a Dunable Yeti PJ bass, with a Matamp GT200 into a...

    Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69, Magnum Etc.) Appreciation Thread

    Hi all, I'm new here (have lurked for years though) but from the searching I've done it doesn't look like there has been much attention given to the tremendous bass playing of Pink Cream 69's Dennis Ward. He's perhaps most known nowadays for his Youtube channel where he reacts to and (more...

    5 String Active, Ibanez or Yamaha?

    So I play hard rock in two bands and I’m needing a five string for one of them. My Fender P is active (18v) and I’d prefer something with a nice, hot signal so I don’t have to change much on my rig between basses. I’ve narrowed it down to the two brands mentioned but, I’m still open to other...

    Hard Rock vs. Flats

    Background: My main player is a Fender AVRI '63 P-bass that I've kept rounds on since I got it 4-5 years ago. In fact, I've used rounds about 95% of the time since I started playing 25+ years ago. I generally play all sorts of genres at home, but mainly Hard Rock (eg. Foo Fighters, Tool, etc.)...

    What phaser to upgrade to?

    Plain and simple, sick of my mooer and I need a change. The choices vary in price, this is the last piece of the puzzle for my board so I want to make sure I get it right. I have narrowed it down to 3. I will be playing it in my hard/stoner rock band.

    TB Member's Band New Release

    I searched for a thread for TB members to post links for their original music releases. Since I couldn't find one, I figured I would make one. If its successful, maybe the mods can sticky it. Anyhow.... Here is a link to my band's new release. It is called Chameleon Presence. Releases on...

    Laney RBH800 Head

    Hey guys, I'm just about to buy a used Laney RBH800 head (quite cheap, 200€ paired with an ashdown mag 115 cab) but I haven't been able to find any reliable info on the head. It looks like it's 300w at 4ohm, but I'd like to hear anything from someone that actually has used one. Is it loud enough...

    Classic Hard Rock and Metal, anyone?

    Probably been done but would anyone like to talk classic hard rock/metal? My main band plays lots of the old school classic rock and metal from decades past. Anyone else into it?

    Fender Rentals at Hard Rock Hotel

    Stayed for one evening at the Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Studios in Orlando this week, and they had an interesting "amenity". In exchange for a $1000 security refundable security deposit, they will bring a Fender instrument and practice amp to your room. There were 20 choices available...

    Need something "thicker" thank my B3K

    Hey guys, Looking for some recommendations for a overdrive/distortion to replace my B3K, I find the B3K has a lot of booty and top end sizzle but I'm looking for something with a bit more body and full frequency. I play in a hard rock/grunge band. I currently use my B3K for a lot of our stuff...

    venues going rock, the death jam bands and country?

    kind of an interesting thing I've noticed in eastern NC. I'm seeing more and more venues starting to get away from jam bands, cover bands, and country bands. Which used to be pretty popular in the area. I don't know if it's an issue of over saturation of those types of bands or lack of people...

    Sat in with decent (hard) rock band...

    I sat in at a rehearsal tonight for a band that's doing stuff that's harder then anything I've done before, which is kind of cool. Takes me back to the hard rock I liked as a kid in the 80's. A touch of metal and touch of grunge but mostly harder pop rock if you will The tunes we did were...

    Hey all, Been a long time since I've posted here on talkbass, but I really need your feedback on something Last year the Band and I went into a recording studio and recorded a couple of songs - We were stoked with the result but the price was high. We talked about it and we decided we might...

    Ampeg SVT II pro EQ settings help/tips (Alternative Rock/Metal)

    Hi guys, a few days ago I acquired myself an SVT II pro and Ampeg 410HLF cab. I've been interested in ampeg for years and after saving hard finally managed to pick up a rig. This is my first tube amp (My old amp which I still have is a Fender v3 Rumble 500, which I got a great sound out of) that...

    Creeping Death - Metallica

    Contains both standard notation and TAB (see attached PDF). This may be my favorite Burton-era Metallica song to play along with. To me, there's something extremely satisfying about cranking the amp, fuzz box, and stereo to eleven and ripping through Creeping Death as my ears bleed. It never...

    Battery - Metallica

    Contains both standard notation and TAB (see attached PDF). Another song from the Master of Puppets LP where Cliff Burton's isolated bass track is available for reference. This is an instance where Cliff's bass pretty much mirrors the guitar parts, but there are a few differences and fills...
