[Show me your Bass VI]( Meriphew · Sep 10, 2023 at 4:53 PM · Replies 10 I've been jonesing for a Fender Bass VI for over a year now. Just looking for the right one. Show me what you've got. Latest: My bass 6 isn't a Fender either, I went Danelectro who originated the whole bass 6 thing. Mine started as a 12/6 double that I converted to a 12/bass6 double with a Danelectro baritone neck I scored from Allparts. I originally tried... Forum [Guitars in General]( [Read more](
[Helix 4.0]( Matthew Tyrrell · Nov 4, 2022 at 2:29 PM · Replies 236 This is essentially what the HX Edit and Native manuals are doing. For the stuff actually affected by the updates, there isn’t normally a ton that is really hardware specific. Also, all of the information that’s in the release notes is posted in the actual Knowledge Base section of the website... Forum [Digital & Modeling Gear]( [Read more](
[Who do you feel most young guitarists emulate?]( CapeFear · Sep 7, 2023 at 5:44 PM · Replies 71 I'm seeing all these young kids, especially females, playing guitar really well. They're either following in the footsteps of Vai, Petrucci or Satriani, but that's pretty much just the circle that I tend to follow. They don't sound very original but perhaps they'll discover themselves soon... Forum [The Sound Hound Lounge]( [Read more](
[Last Strat]( Jfree · Sep 10, 2023 at 7:58 PM · Replies 55 I am looking for the last strat I will buy. I am concerned about inconsistent quality at Fender. What other "Strat" Style guitars should I be looking at? Living in Florida, a roasted maple neck would be a big plus. Budget? I'll tap out around $4,500. Forum [Guitars in General]( [Read more](
[My ongoing fascination with the pre-Nirvana 90's]( phillybri · Sep 8, 2023 at 3:55 PM · Replies 224 The 90's are definitely the new 80's, at least in the cover band scene here in Raleigh, and it's brought with it a fascination (in my head, at least) with the music that was big just before Nirvana swept in and changed everything. Here are a few of the tunes from that period that stand out to... Forum [The Sound Hound Lounge]( [Read more](
[Classic local music stores in your hometown(s)]( Eddie-Applegate · Mar 4, 2022 at 11:32 AM · Replies 112 I'm in the Albany NY area. Not bad. We have Parkway about a 1/2 hour north. There are a couple cool shops over in Troy. One does used stuff, reminds me a bit of a low budget cross between South Austin and Austin Vintage. Right before I moved to CA in '83, I went down to Lark Street, there was a place packed with old stuff, called... Forum [Guitars in General]( [Read more](
[NUX T](rident MikeSRC · Dec 27, 2022 at 1:34 PM · Replies 199 Sure, looks that way. Note that they don't call it left and right outputs but output one and two. Really should offer independent delay times for left and right - that's an old and valuable stereo effect - as well as stereo chorus. It's definitely a mono send/return insert. Strange that they say this in the manual... Forum [Digital & Modeling Gear]( [Read more](
[Favorite sleeper amps]( noslouch · May 16, 2023 at 10:42 AM · Replies 387 I'm always interested in finding great amps that for whatever reason, fell through the cracks and never achieved the commercial success that they may have deserved. I'll get it going with the Fender Prosonic from the mid-90's, designed by Bruce Zinky in the custom shop. While not perfect... Forum [Amps and Cabs]( [Read more](
[Paul Languedoc collaborates with Circle Strings for a production G4]( gerg6 · Aug 29, 2023 at 3:14 PM · Replies 39 As iof this makes any difference to more than the perhaps 20-30 people who will acquire an expensive new guitar sometimes in the next 3-5 years. I know of only one person who plays a Languedoc in regular performance. It's got to be bizarre indeed to be building fancy-pants guitars -- truly exceptional objects -- that are largely going to be kept in... Forum [The Small Company Luthiers]( [Read more](
[Are SG's wonky if tuned down a Half Step?]( neastguy · Sep 9, 2023 at 7:32 AM · Replies 20 I dunno why, but im itchin for an SG. Seems like a guitar I would like. Most are light weight, smaller body. But should I be concerned about tuning stability with them? Latest: Years and years ago, a good friend of mine, the best tech in town/salesman/fixer upper at a consignment store/singer in a local band/major Les Paul collector...

[Musicians friend sent me a guitar with this packing job. Ridiculous](. kelsodeez · Sep 9, 2023 at 11:40 AM · Replies 110 I ordered a shell pink player series stratocaster on labor day for my girlfriend. I called my "gear advisor" to double check that I'd be getting a guitar new in the box from the warehouse and not a floor model. He assured me that it'd be in the factory box. The guitar came to me yesterday. I... Forum [Guitars in General]( [Read more](
[Why does most Post Rock have no vocals?]( CapeFear · Sep 10, 2023 at 10:21 AM · Replies 6 A lot of this music borders on Prog Rock but it has no vocals, and lots of songs sound like vocals would fit perfectly. Are there any Post Rock bands that actually tour that are all instrumental? Forum [The Sound Hound Lounge]( [Read more]( [Visit The Gear Page]( [Unsubscribe](
