  1. It only takes one noisy light to make a hash of your pristine unbalanced signal.
  2. Cash Converters have a history of putting dud returns back on the shelf so be careful.
  3. I don’t know about grades but those bass parts are ideal teeth cutting material. 20 minutes a day and in a week he should be OK to bumble through a new one actually reading it. That's when confidence grows. Reading the music isn't the hard part. The plopping of the fingers in time in the right place is. You already know how to do that!
  4. Chicken, prepare to meet egg, on your face.
  5. Add some little bit of wind and the cure is actually free!
  6. Yep. The tab lines up with the notation. If you would rather play it with more usual fingerings you have to transpose your bass. My advice. Grab the opportunity to learn to read notation and play it on the regular 4 string as written.
  7. The whole thing is odd. TAB is not what you usually get issued. There may be regular notation printed parts for bass in someone's drawer. If so there is a golden opportunity to knuckle down and figure out notation with pop tunes you already know.
  8. I wouldn't mind one on my board just so people would point and ask and I would say something like "Beware the Attack Goat!" before changing the topic.
  9. Nice work if you can get it.
  10. Put up a curtain cloth. Tastefully of course.
  11. Jump on the Big Baby in the classifieds.
  12. A SuperTwin is probably an easier shift than BB3. Roll tilt and shove vs pick up?
  13. Something UL certified would be a good start. A Quilter BB800 is designed for that sort of thing. Compact package.
  14. Cheap. Little bit loud. Tiny. Not happening. Now it's functions. I am making possibly my last post on this thread. Two kinds of functions. LAF and civilized. LAF tend to involve big PA. Civilized is more the small pub gig where they don't want the roof raised. The kind where a Rumble 100 V3 would be absolutely fine. I used one with a full jazz orchestra going for gold. Listening to the previous band I thought it had to have been DI'd. Nope. Maybe 200 people loosely filled. I had my HPF on it and no worries. So, what is going to give? Size or cost? That SWR210 would be fine too btw. As all the old Trace stuff we have seen.
  15. And still not even free dessert because although it could get louder with a tiny amp, most people have an excess of amp power.
  16. Perhaps @stevie would be curious enough to do an autopsy on it. You are dead sure it never got thrashed by a bigger amp when you weren't looking?
  17. Aka no free lunch.
  18. I am not aware of different maths for tubes. As power varies with the square of the voltage and the max of a sine is sqrt2 times the average RMS., square wave being peak to peak of the max ckean sine... you see where I get 2x RMS clean power in square wave.
  19. May as well use a 1000w amp, so long as it stays clean. If you start to overdo it the speakers will let you know by no longer staying clean.
  20. Considering the parent co is now Yamaha and Venture was their first new bass amp, all a bit underwhelming.
  21. And minding your shirt buttons.
  22. Ask him how long they wait until they decide they must have paid too much.
  23. Pitch Black tuner. Sadly it died and I got a clip on that I have to remember to charge up.
  24. OP rejected a sljghtly smaller footprint Series6 on his back doorstep as too big for the spare room. Rebel without a clue.
  25. It shouldn't be too much drama to take along a folding table to reposition a monitor per the stand above. It's a bluegrass festival so you should be getting sound crew well used to amping DB. I would have the EUB on standby in the car just in case Stage 2 gets the sound guy's nephew who likes a lot of bass.
