A cover band once needed a sub bassist mid gig on new year's eve. The incumbent had girlfriend problems of apparently the highest order and exited leaving the lead guitarist having to take up bass, and failing, badly. This being the biggest gig in the city it would not do so yours truly being sober as a judge in those days volunteered and was gleefully handed the trusty P. Some tunes I knew back to front, others only from the radio, nailed it, who was that masked man?

Boosting signal from an EUB
Downunderwonder replied to Grahambythesea's topic in EUB and Double Bass
Probably just needs a buffer for his PA to accept your piezo. Some tuners would do that. Anything else you have laying around that can do a full clean blend? -
Hell no.

I believe it may be possible for you to speed it up by prearranging customs payment on the basis of your invoice for amp plus shipping, and the shipment ID.

Each time someone new gets done someone needs to get down to the pub where Mason goes and record him mouthing off about his latest sucker. Sooner or later we'll have him on video with the exact amount.

BDDI Deluxe is a good option. Soundguys all know the DI will come out static free so don't baulk at unplugging theirs.

I wouldn't risk it. Fixing what isn't broken can lead to heartbreak. You know it's going to pound your kidneys when you plug it in!- 62 replies

I was a violinist before taking up the bass at age 25. It didn't even occur to me to retune the bass to 5ths. It did take more than 5 minutes to adjust, but less than 5 days.

Yerp. Duct tape a mess of cardboard over/around with a hole so a determined finger can still switch it. Job done.

Yet if you fail to hear the cab complaining about additional transient peaks coming through you could find you have a silent cab.

There's a well priced Genzler 350 in the classifieds. 500 v 350 isn't really here nor there unless you are in the habit of running your Hartke hard out just to hear yourself.

Too many people enquiring about Harley Bentons?
-
Depends on the cab(s). Not many individual cabs will do a heck of a lot more with the extra 300w, other than space heat. Plenty of dual cab stacks would be the same story. By the time the tune changes you are going to be absolutely deafening and drowning out all nuances of the drumkit.

Dunno what that would do if your amp has a bridged output. In most cases there wouldn't be anything on the 2 set on the amp end. Your only utility would be using less sockets and plugs for a custom breakout box and lead that was fed from a mono speakon.

Or least accompanying a gravelly voice so has to be hard rock of some flavour. -
Weather, junk, fiddling and rehearsal room acoustics
Downunderwonder replied to TimR's topic in General Discussion
If they relabeled guitar amp bass knobs as 'suck' it would make things a lot easier. I was doing a series of gigs on DB with an acoustic guitarist. One time we set up and it sounded like derrière and nothing could fix it. Then he noticed he had switched off the low shelf filter on the guitar channel to do his solo gig. What a relief.- 1 reply
