    Pros and cons of stacking...

    I'm not an acoustical engineer (although I do play one on TV) ;) and I was wondering if anyone can educate me about the "boundary effect", and how substantial that really is. I have two identical 1-12 cabs, and would like to stack them for optimal performance and efficiency - but also keeping...

    What do you absolutely love and hate about your Ibanez SR500?

    What i really love about it is how comfortable the neck is and how easy it is to restring it thanks to the certain bridge it has. The 3-Band EQ with the 2/3-Way Switch is also really nice. What i terribly hate about it is the wood. Everyone who owned an SR500 knows that the wood is sensitive...

    5th Dimension - Joe Osborn & Hal Blaine - how pros used to do it.

    no click track on this baby, no sir! man, they start banging at about 2:23. he is slashing at that jazz bass, needles on the board must have been pegging. i read the interview about this session - producer outlined the chords, said a few words of guidance, and rolled tape.

    Q's-Pros and Cons of keeping Ibanez (BTB)

    I don't know whether I'd call myself a "newbie" to bass or an intermediate and developing player. I'd like to think I'm developing, but definitely new to the equipment side of things. I played bass back in the 60's in a rock group with a Teisco Bass that I picked up used for $15 and gave it away...

    Pros and cons of angling pickups in my build.

    Im currently building a bass with a single pickup, a emg dc35 in bridge/mm positon. Im also thinking of playing around with the angle of the pickups but im not sure what the effects of doing so might be. Since an emg dc35 has to rectangular magnets i shouldn't have to worry about correctly...

    Ibanez BTB776PB or BTB745? Pros and Cons

    I'm thinking of either getting a Ibanez BTB776PB or a BTB745. Can you tell me your pros and cons? I am determined to find out all I can about these 2 Basses to figure out which one to buy. I'm coming from playing a 4 string. BTB776PB is $500 less than the BTB745. Also, it'd be cool if anyone...

    The pros and cons of temp work

    Temp work saved my bacon. I was in my mid 50's and couldn't do my old trade (telecommunications) for several reasons. I had messed up my ankle and was having a hard time physically doing the job because of that. Also, I had allowed the technology to pass me by. I was no longer on top of my game...

    Ibanez SR655: pros and cons

    I have a chance to buy a friend's SR655 at a nice price. I'm a guitar player, and I'm limited to one bass at the moment, so I want it to be as versatile as possible. I currently have a MIM Deluxe Active Jazz V, that I'm on the fence about. So here's my assessment: Pros--lightweight...

    Two relatively simple questions for the pros

    I kept meaning to ask these things, just remembered that now. 1) Can you clearcoat over TruOil? I love the look and effect of using truoil and it's super easy to work with. But if I wanted to make a stronger, glossier finish on top of it, is that possible? If so, what type of finish(es) would...

    Five string pros and cons?

    Just curious what you all think about moving to a 5 string. Pros? Cons? Is it the kind of thing you went to and never looked back at 4 string? Is it something that you only use for certain contexts? Does a 5 string bass make the 4 string obsolete? Also, what's the average weight of a typical...

    A couple BAND SAW BLADE questions for the pros

    While searching for a place to do mill work for me, I stumbled across a friend-of-a-friend who's selling a much more capable band saw setup than my 9" Skil tabletop saw. It's a Rockwell 14" from the 70s. It has an extension added, allowing it to cut about 12" vertically. And aside from needing a...

    The Pleasure of Playing with Seasoned Pros
