  1. You will have to post your pedal board …
  2. I recently found this.
  3. I do mostly mid sized rooms here (125/175 capacity) and have never had any problems running a single 112. In the larger rooms you’re generally in the PA so you’re really just needing stage monitor , in the mid sized rooms you’re often not in the PA so your stage sound is it for the band mix. I have two cabs , but rarely use two unless it’s an outdoor gig.
  4. A friend picked up a Barefaced Super Compact 112 and the MT500 V1. It’s absolutely gorgeous. She doesn’t need anything really loud and it’s easy for her to haul around. And it sounds deadly.
  5. I’m curious about Jad Freer too. I was looking through some classifieds today and noticed a Demeter Minnie. And was thinking it would be a lovely thing with a Broughton P15.

    Show us your rig!

    Back in my favourite old dive with 2Young2Old.
  7. Afternoon ! Welcome, B.
  8. Nobody does orange quite like Gretsch! I love those things.
  9. Shortly after buying my Squier VI I decided I needed a TreVerb pedal. And then someone suggested some gain would be nice … next thing I knew I was putting a pedalboard together. Wound up spending more on that than the bass.
  10. Great basses , I spent some years looking for one , and then found one in Toronto.
  11. Good to see you found a good fix that didn’t involve shipping.
  12. Welcome! You just have to put in the time , it really doesn’t matter how old you might be.
  13. Welcome! I’m wondering what pedals make a new amp sound old. There’s a lot to be said for modern amps , especially with a good tube preamp. I do love a nice rich old school thump , and short scales.
  14. The elf is a loud 200 watt amp , however , it’s only a 200 watt amp. But if it’s only an issue with one bass perhaps you should look at the bass first. Either raising the pickup or trying a pre should give you more signal. If the elf is not giving you enough presence using various basses , look at a more powerful amp. … and the elf cabs are pretty tiny. You might need more substantial cabs as well. (it never ends)
  15. I believe there is a preset high pass filter in the Streamliner. With the tube preamp it can cover a lot of ground. It’s a great amp. I did send mine off to agedhorse for a checkup. I felt it was well worth investing in.
  16. Once you begin taking gigs with more than one band the inevitable is inevitable.
  17. Once you understand how they work it’s straightforward. However … you can damage the neck if you just tighten them without positioning the neck first. Rickenbacker discontinued those rods in 1984. So that’s not relevant for modern ones.

    New Bass EB-3

    Congratulations ,I’d love to find a burgundy EB3 for a good price. I do have a SG and DC Jr. So I am already a fan of Gibson short scales …
  19. Our little mostly instrumental Mexican band might fit here. We’re unique here in Nova Scotia , but I’m sure there’s similar bands in the US and Mexico.
  20. Bar staff parties hold serious potential. … the pros party
  21. Welcome aboard , you’ve begun a wonderful pursuit. Enjoy !
