Dropzone Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Just been looking at some speakers on ebay, turns out the seller is a fellow bass chatter. I think we have agreed a sale, but in our chatting about all things bass, he may have given me some GAS!!!!! Aaaargh, don't tell the Mrs. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivansc Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 So long as they are black and carpeted, what woman would know if your bass rig changed? Ahem! https://www.facebook.com/lee.caveberry this old pal of mine might, I suppose. Her "big rig" is a recently-acquired Little Mark III with a 15" cab. Mind you, it IS yellow in parts......

[/quote] i don't think there is anything sexist about a woman having a big bass rig. It would be sexist to say women should not have bass rigs at all.

Silvia Bluejay Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Here we go again with the sexist assumptions... I'm still of the opinion that a bassist whose other half is constantly complaining about instruments and gear around the house has hooked up with the wrong partner. (Yes that sentence is carefully non-gendered because it really doesn't matter which half of the couple does the complaining.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Totally correct However if you get a fail on this, you can with time wear the resistance and complaints down. YMMV [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1474040322' post='3135229'] What, this one..? [/quote] That is not backline. It is in fact the latest on stage monitoring system. It allows you and your fellow band members to simultaneously hear and perceive the 'heft' of the bass sound. Backline, no, not at all, wherever did that idea come from.
