    tone shaping pedals recommendations

    sorry for the wall of text!! ok, I used to own a Hartke Bass Attack, and when it comes to tone shaping, I extremely happy with it because it has pretty good controls for tone shaping - there's the EQ section, then there's the harmonics knob for tube-like harmonics, and there's the shape knob...

    Beyond Next Stage LIVE (just came back from it)

    Overall good show! Actually, not good.. it was ROCKING GREAT!! :) But the sound crew did quite a bad job in the mixing. During the guitar solos, usually the starting, you can't hear the guitar at all, then suddenly there will be a volume boost up, I assume it was someone at the mixer suddenly...

    A question about power draw on amp.

    Okie.. so here's my story.... :) At the beginning of June, I bought a Hartke 3500a amp + 410xl cabinet. The amp is rated 350 watts @ 4 ohms and 250 watts @ 8 ohms. The 410xl is 8 ohms load so I take it my amp is drawing 250 watts power? At home, the master volume is always at 1 and never ever...

    my pedals now are: Korg DT-10 tuner EBS Multi-Comp Zoom B2.1u multi effects Now I feel that I have everything I need. I don't like the overdrive in the zoom, but I have no need for a overdrive, so that's no problem for me. I do like the chorus, phaser and flanger in the Zoom tough which is...

    so i tried a SX bass (J)

    it's a fender J bass copy. the first thing i noticed when i picked it up was the awful chunky neck! I'm not talking about the width, but the back of the neck, it's protruding out too much and I really dislike it. I think I'm too used to my yamaha bb414 where the neck is very thin and the back...
