So, my new Monoprice 5W tube amp arrived today... Totally impulse purchased with a gift certificate from the holidays figuring it would be an inexpensive project to blow up and mod up. Gotta say, my expectations were pretty low... I mean how good can this cheapo thing be? but... the little thing...

I've been having problems for quite some time with our neighbor and their CB radio hobby. The problem is that my amp (and everyone else's) picks up the CB radio transmissions, resulting in something similar to what happens on spinal tap. I've tried pretty much every non-drastic option to fix...

I'm GASing for a 5 string bass right now, and i'm not terribly sure which route to go. My biggest problem with just about every 5 string bass (fender, esp, ibanez, warwick, peavy, etc) i've played is that the string tension on the low B string is just too loose, and just kills the clarity of...

Well, i recieved my new bass today, and i'm pretty damn happy with what i have. It has a kahler bass trem on it, which was one of the main reasons that i was looking into it. Since the things are so darn elusive, and there are probably some bass players who are curious about the trem itself here...

I was just reading about this pedal in a GK Catalog. Have any of you bass players given this pedal a try? Good? Bad? So-So? http://www.gallien.com/PRODUCTS/ACCESSORIES/Dieseldawg/Dieseldawg.htm

I just got with a new band, and i'm kinda curious - for our first gig as a group, should we shoot for an acoustic set, electric set or a bit of both? All (or at least 95% of the songs will be originals) This is essentially a test to figure out what our strengths and weaknesses are as a band...

Seems like every time i hear about kahler they're going back to making trems again... but it's been almost 2 years since i initially started hearing this stuff - does anyone have a solid answer? what's up with kahler?

I finally got my butt down to the guitar shop the other day, and tried some of these out. I had been putting it off for quite some time. I really couldn't find too much that was usefull with this switch. Only a *slight* tone change, with a very noticeable volume change. Am i missing somthing...
