    FM radio in headphones through bass amp

    Hey, all. As my second "first" bass after a 13-year hiatus I recently picked up a bass (MIM Jazz). I plugged it into a 20-some-year-old Kustom 10-watt bass amp that was lying around the house with a run-of-the-mill cable and put on some headphones (Sony MDR-7506) as to not wake the missus last...

    Keeley Compressor Pro picking up radio signals

    That's unfortunate because there is a lot to like about that pedal. I have tried different cables, amps, power sources, etc; but the result doesn't change. Being noisy is one thing; but hearing radio broadcast during a gig is a deal breaker for me. Did anyone have / solve this issue? With a...

    note for note cover on the radio

    I heard this week on the radio a cover of David Bowie's Heroes. The cover is note for note! I dont get it, what's the point? You play in bar and play note for note cover I understand. But why record a song exactly the same as the original? If I want to hear it, I will listen to the original...

    Radio interference

    So this has been a bit of an issue with my Tune/Phoenix PH-5. As the title says, the bass is picking up a radio station and while it was amusing at first it's starting to get annoying, especially when I'm trying to do any sort of tracking. The bass has jazz-type pickups; I am not sure if they...

    If you're selling an IR bass, I'm buying. I'll pay top dollar. I'm too impatient to wait for a build.

    iHeartRadio Bankruptcy

    I was pretty surprised by the announcement. I am under the impression they are a top player in the United States radio game. It seems like they will be selling off a lot of radio stations. I listened to one of their stations in Phoenix but was dismayed when I got home to Canada when I found...

    Randy Bachman’s radio show on bassists

    Randy Bachman (Bachman Turner Overdrive) has a weekly radio show on Canada’s CBC Radio called “Vinyl Tap”. He’s very good at telling the stories behind songs, anectodes about gear and personalities. He did a show tonight on bassists. Covered Jack Bruce up to John Deacon (Under Pressure). It’s a...

    TC Electronic Polytune 2 + Darkglass Microtubes 500 + Dr. Bass 2460 = Mexican Radio Station

    Yeah, that's right. Every time I punched the Polytune to tune last night, I got a local Houston Mexican radio station blasting through my cabinet. At first it was funny but quickly became annoying. Punching the mute on the Darkglass Super Intelligent foot switch silenced that. Anyone have a fix...

    AM radio bass tone (Blackstar Fly)

    I kinda like the way my Blackstar Fly has that AM radio bass tone. How do I get my rig to sound that way? (just roll of all the bass?)

    Radio Signals Coming Through Amp...Any Ideas For a Fix?

    I apologize if there is a better section for this, but the issue seems to stem from using a specific bass so I figured I'd try my luck in the Basses forum. If this seems as though its in the wrong place, if a moderator could relocate the thread that would be greatly appreciated. So I've only...

    Tube radio St. Vinnies score!

    Found this classic Philco at the Broadway St. Vinnies ware house a few days ago: Looks like some nice mahogany. I plugged it in and it worked! According to feEbay, these are from the 40s. I opened it up and checked it out. Turntable assembly is entirely absent. Doubt it still works...

    Agoraphobic, untalented, and accidentally on the radio.

    I'd like to think I've made a few things reasonably clear about myself by now: I like to loop, I prefer things that are blue, I usually can't afford real food, and I'm cripplingly afraid of sharing my music with other people. It's almost ironic, I suppose, as perhaps my main motivation as a...

    It was just some talk show/boring poopie. But I just never had this happen to me before. I was practicing at a different location than I normally practice but still.. XD That may have not been interesting to everyone but I found it funny so I'd thought I'd share. Has your amp/equipment ever...

    Bass Pickups and Radio Signals

    So I recently discovered that when I plug in and turn on my amp, if I listen closely I can hear radio broadcasts coming through the amp! I suspect this is due to the pickups. Similar experiences?
