    For sale Hamstead Soundworks Subspace

    Mint condition Hamstead Soundworks Subspace. I’ve used it guitar and bass with great results. It serves currently as a boost/EQ and while it does a phenomenal job at it, it’s more pedal than I need at the moment. Does everything from pure EQ to slight boost to hairy gain and everything in...

    EHX English Muffin with 12AU7 as clean/(light OD) bass tube preamp?

    I already use my EHX Black Finger, which is originally intended as a tube driven optical compressor, as an always on tube pramp just at the breakup point, which means it turns out a light OD when you dig into the strings, and with really great and satisfying results too. The thing is that the...

    Teaching English abroad

    Hey all. Lately I've felt a little stagnant in the career department- I work in a SpEd classroom and I love my work but it just isn't really taking me anywhere new (and sees me mostly subsisting on eggs and rice to make it to the end of each month), so I've been sending my resume around to test...

    Modding the English Muff'n

    I'm very interested in this pedal to give richness to my clean tone, as I virtually always play with a rich and low-level distortion. Obviously I would switch out the tubes, but I have looked and cannot find the instructions for modding the Muff'n's bass capacitor. Has anyone been down this...

    EHX English Muff'n users: What tubes do you use?

    I've had an English Muff'N for years and have occasionally gotten it out and used it as a clean boost or to add just a hint of distortion. I've mostly stuck to the stock Y7s as 12AX7s are way to heavy on the distortion (Gain factor of 100 obviously they would be, versus Y7's 45). What tubes do...

    Cool bassists who are not English speaking

    The title says it. I want to share here some really cool bassists who may have flown below your radar because they don’t play in a band that sings in English. Please feel free to add.

    Non English bassists

    Some guys who may fly below your radar if you only speak English. Here I plan to feature some really cool musicians from different parts of the world that don't sing in English, ans all with a focus on the bass. I'm starting with this guy. He's Québécois, i.e. French-Canadian. He's to my taste...

    Double Bass Orchestral/solo strings for boomy old English bass?

    Hi everyone, I recently started playing on a beautiful old English bass in solo tuning for auditions/solo performances and orchestral tuning for chamber music. The instrument has this huge, dark, boomy sound but I've been told clarity gets lost in faster passages and especially in a big hall...

    English Glossary of Bass Tone Terms [Let's make it!]

    Hello everybody, as many TBers, english is not my mother tongue. I'm quite decent, enough to spend time in an english forum, but several times, in discussions about the tone I can find some slang and onomatopoeias that needs some explanation.:eyebrow: "Oompf" "Punch" "Growl" "Pow" "Mooooooaah"...

    Out for Delivery. My three favorite words in the English Vocabulary.

    Here is what's coming. I have been rebuilding my bass collection after selling ALL basses in a foolish attempt to salvage my dying marriage. Now that I am single I am finally getting something I have wanted for YEARS. Here she is!

    Can we please ban "Pivot" from the English Language?

    I realize this word is all the rage in politically related topics (and this is not intended to be a political statement), but if I hear or see the word "pivot" used one more time I may barf. Will someone please turn the page on the media's "Word For Today" calendar?

    Show your vintage European basses!

    It seems like among vintage instruments, the euro market gets the least love. I've never understood it, as I've always found them among the most aesthetically pleasing. I'm currently trying to find a Meazzi of some sort, but it doesn't seem like any exist in the US. Anyway, we'll start off...
