Another amazing player from TX. But don't care for his singing..... But he would hate mine.
Those are few, often with the person doing a lot of things most people never do in a real setting. Guitars have more going on to hear phaser sounds going on, so it is a little different with a bass.
Very true. Every person there and where they are is having some impact--even if naked.
The people factor is huge and is true for what is beyond the stage area for me, but I'm standing about 6ft away from my amp and cab, so in my situation the people who are there and where they are is having likely minimal effect on what I'm hearing. They are about 25ft away or more at the nearest point. They no doubt are effecting what I'm hearing from the room itself, but that is not a lot given most all of what I'm hearing is from monitors and my cab, which is my bass monitor.
I'm afraid to get a Reverend because there is a chance I'd like it too much and want more.The Wattplower is intriguing...
My Mesa. I've got both channels pretty well dialed in for the tone I want and love it. My point was my hearing is awful. And by tinnitus has been really bad lately. It certainly isn't the amp or the Thunderbird.
One of the reasons I'm selling my Thunderbird...I don't play it enough and it deserves someone who will use it every day.
Can you say that again? I'm having trouble hearing you over this ringing...
Maybe with some things, but I don’t have to paint a Tbird black with yellow wings to know I’m not going to like it.
But your daughter(?) would love an instrument themed wedding. Talk about not just falling inline and doing what others are doing. And you are paying for it, right?
Probably good advice I should follow, but I find it so hard to let go of basses that I’ve bonded with. The very few basses I’ve sold in the last 20 years have almost all been no regret losses because I never really bonded with them. This one is a different story…
I think you need to start a new family tradition, the Grooms parents buy a thank you gift for the brides parents for covering the cost of the wedding.

You just need to remind your son in law that you get the first dance with your daughter at the reception but after that you’ll take the stage for one song as they do their first dance. And because it’s not a shotgun wedding you won’t need any firearms but you will need a Thundergun for the stage. It’s something they’ll all remember and laugh about as they look back at their wedding.Both great ideas! But even tho we are footing the bill for most of it, I have no real say in any of it. My daughter is not traditional in most ways but even she would draw the line at a Thunderbird themed wedding. But she might be willing to get behind the idea of his family buying me a bass
By the way, it looks like the wedding may be happening in Carlsbad CA. Anyone in the club around that area?
