    Guy told my rock music is too Bass oriented

    Salut all One of my friend is also an amateur musician. He plays mostly guitars and keyboards. Drums and bass also. He records in solo and does a lot of demo. He finds my music too bass oriented (I don't do Jazz Fusion or styles where the bass is the lead thing) Some of his words are : - My...

    My new Frankenbass…

    Some pics from beginning to end of my new-like-used beater bass. I should probably explain a little why I recently became infatuated with the idea of putting this thing together. When I was a teenager circa ‘92 or ‘93, my cousin Joe borrowed and broke my Dad’s roller...

    How does my bass sound ? Midscooped ? Thin ? Hollow ?

    Salut all I made that album Easy Way Down alone. I am wondering what are you thoughts about the bass mix and tone. Is it far from standard industry ? Is it rather classic ? Is it too midscooped ? Or too mid heavy ? Too boomy ? Too thin ? Lacking specific frequencies ? Not the same bass on...

    First bass build

    My sister was throwing out a beaten up Mahogany shelf and wondered if I wanted to make a guitar out of it. Instead I opted for a step up from my previous Cigarbox attempts and tried a P-bass! I essentially blundered my way several 100 YouTube tutorials, but miraculously it turned out really...

    Simple Pedalboard Build Play by Play

    I decided to redo my boards and make a portable grab and go board that is also small enough I can use it with my practice setup. Point is not to show the pedals I have, there's a pile of them. But I want to show that any buffoon (me) with low cost hand tools and limited skill can do this...

    Weird Oddball kludged rigs?

    I was thinking to when I was young and broke and had to kludge together bass amp rigs out of random acquired pieces. This was long before I had a cell phone to take photos of everything. First rig was a homemade particle board cabinet with a well used (but free) CTS 1x15 driver. Just roughly...

    My homemade Pedalboard build

    I've been wanting to build one for a little while....so I did. It took a couple of hours this afternoon. It's Red Oak. I'm planning to stain it. And of course I still have to add the Velcro. I really enjoyed the build. I hope you all like it.

    Built myself a pedalboard

    I wanted a new pedalboard large enough to hold all my effects, but I didn't want to break the bank. At the same time, I also had a desire to make something—anything—out of Baltic birch plywood. I was inspired by the Diago line of pedalboards because they're basically a box with the bottom lid...

    Homemade amp rules

    I recently built a tube amp, based upon the venerable Supro Thunderbolt(I named it the Mjolnir). I built it for guitar and it sounds really great for that purpose. But I've also recently started playing bass and since I didn't have a bass amp I plugged into it. It sounds fantastic! What is weird...
