The Line 6 wireless is what I recently purchased. A little pricy, but worth the investment. I am very pleased with it so far.... Good choice - their wireless stuff is license - free worldwide! i did misquote the frequency range; althogh it won't impact your purchase. they are in the 2.4 GHz range. ...

I just recently purchased a wireless system for guitar, it's digital. The store clerk says that is the wave of the future. With these Gov. regs and cell phones and such all interfering with the old systems, digital is the way to go. You might pay a little more for them but it's cleaner and better t...

Can anyone explain to me what the deal is with the wireless mic situation. Someone told me they were changing the laws for the use of wireless mics. I need to know this before I decide to go looking for a wireless mic system. Get ready for another round. Looks like the 600mHz band may be auctioned ...

I appreciate the comment about "eating a little shit'. I have no problem with the business of the business of playing. What I have a problem with is someone not being up front with me. If there is a financial concern, tell me. It does our band absolutely no good to lose money for a club. Don't ...

I don't normally do this, but this is the SECOND time we've been cancelled, at the last minute, by the Curwensville Moose. I was told by one of their Board menbers that we are cancelled for tomorrow night feb 4th - even though they advertised our band on their website (as of 4:30PM today, we are sti...

[quote="tele65"]Looking for a used bass half stack. Min 200 watts / Cab can be 4x10, Single 15 or 18.[/quote] How about a Galleon-Kruger 700 RB head with 4X10 cab (w/piezo horn). Amp is 480 watts low frequency and 50 watt high frequency bi-amped. Purchased new about 2 yrs ago, been out of ...

[quote="songsmith"]I've often said I'd rather play a free show than a $200 show. When you play for free, it's usually to benefit someone who deserves it. When you play for $200, somebody is bending you over a stump. I ain't a hooker, and if I was, I'd be a high-priced Vegas callgirl, not a...

[quote="facingwest"]It seems like the cost of everything else in this world goes up, except what a musician makes in a night of playing (An average of $80/night+-). At least that's what I've experienced since I've been playing. I'm also wondering what bands were making 15+ years ago.[/quot...

Many thanks for all the advice on eliminating my RF problem. It's still there, but we're now checking on the church's wiring. last summer a new YMCA went up (4 stories) just about the same time the problem reared its ugly head. That, coupled with the HUGE steeple (tallest structure in town by a lot!...

Check out a pair of Event 5's - Biamped system (70W to Woofer, 30W to soft dome tweeter) and a front port. Nice, compact, loud if you need it speaker that has a built-in tilt-back mechanism (although I reccomend some isolators under the cabs) and both balanced and unbalanced inputs. Won't break the ...

For overall sound and reliability I go with Fender - most universal "texture" in any mix with enough models to custom fit your genre. Love the mid-power combos like Deluxe Reverb/Pro Reverb/Vibroluxe Reverb for R&B or Blues, Twin Reverbs for twangy clean Country and the old piggy back ...

[quote="f.sciarrillo"]I been looking between the Behringer V-Amp and Line 6 as my processor. Is there anyone here that uses a behringer? If so how is it? I was looking at the prices of them and with how cheap they are. I did read some good reviews on them, and I talked to Chris Silva last ...

I'm not aware of a feasible way of changing the frequency range on those. They are probably synthesized as opposed to using a crystal reference frequency. Sennheiser may have a trade-in program for them...another thing you might want to check is Musician's friend and others' trade in programs. Actu...

Alright, so i am thinkin about gettin a small PA system. Problem - i have no idea what i would need. And honestly - i just have no understanding of how to hook up the thing. So buyin PA equipment is goin to be very intimidating for me. So, my question. what would i need to get started? I wouldn't n...

I've been dealing with some really strong AM radio signals invading a local church's PA system. All the normal remedies, RF filters, shorter cable lengths etc seem to help, but it keeps cropping up in different areas. First it was in the choir mics, then the pulpit mic (all condensors w/phantom powe...

[quote="bassist_25"][quote="floodcitybrass"] For example, many sound guys around here like to flex their subwoofer penis and allow the kick drum to dominate the mix. I can't stand that. I insist that the vocals dominate the mix..... and no I am not a lead singer.[/quote] Totally ...

I'm with Bassist_25. However, there are usually three sides to every story; your side, my side and the truth. Therefore I will not judge, as he didn't. I know benefits can be some of the most demanding gigs there are, but we all need to look past the local situation and keep our commitments to the b...

This Monday Bud Moore passed away - 91 years old and a cornerstone in music not only in Clearfield County but throughout the country. He founded the "American Folk Musicians" music union; still active and headquartered in Connecticut. He also fathered 15 children - most of whom continue hi...

Anything with a FIXED Bridge. Gibson Fender Ibanez Gibson ES335 "S" (for solidbody) Professional. This ax has the BEST playin neck I've ever experienced!! Jumbo frets ebony fingerboard and shallow C shape. I made a few mods: original bridge was a TP-6 (junk) so I replaced w/ a roller brid...

Here's my list of stupid sales: Pre-CBS Fender Bandmaster - blond version with gain to die for Vox Super Beatle Amp - just for the nostalgic vibe Goya Rangemaster semi hollow body electric - Quirky axe with a million switches, but a great neck Fender Blackface pre CBS super reverb amp - one of my mo...

Here's another one - I have a Vox AC30 that was hot-rodded by "stacking the channels". The brilliant channel is the clean one, so to speak, and by plugging into the "normal" channel, the preamp stage now preamps the preamp stage of the brilliant channel. Must be similar to Clapto...

I feel best on stage with about 40 watts behind me. That's enoughto "feel" it but not so much as to overpower thestage. A 40 watt class A/B tube amp will hold up nicely for clean tones you can hear and then break up nicely for solo work. Add a good distortion pedal and you'll get all the M...

I prefer stop tailpieces paired with a roller-type bridge. That gives me lots of mass (more sustain) and a less abrasive string contact point.
