    SIngle echo with tap

    There are a few tunes that use an echo on the bass eg Rihanna - Only girl in the world. It would be handy to get that effect which is a single echo and it would need a foot operated tap switch to get the right tempo and maybe a reverse echo option. Is there anything that can be recommended...

    Mounting ears : Finding the right screw size for pre-drilled holes

    I've got an old amp that came with the ears un-installed. I try to put them on but discover that some yutz at the factory used the wrong size tap for the mounting holes on the amp, the thread holes are too big and the supplied screws just keep going in circles. The screws are the original screws...

    Odd technique I discovered

    So, I've recently taught myself this really funky sounding technique, and I thought I'd share it, at least a bit. I don't know who else has done this. But here goes- You take a bass using FRESH strings, put your finger on the TWELFTH fret on E-string. Tap the harmonics on the string about 2-3...

    bass tapping is lost in the mix

    I play bass in an experimental metal band. Think Lamb of God meets Primus. I'm having trouble getting tapped bass parts to not be lost in the mix and hidden by the aggressively distorted guitar. There is one guitarist and we both play lead.

    Another Palmer cab merger question

    I will soon have in my possession a Peavey Alphabass. It doesn’t have an 8 ohm tap, but I have two 8 ohm cabs. No problem running both with my Palmer cab merger in parallel, but if I only want to use one, can I use a dummy plug into one of the Palmer’s cab outputs? I know this works for plugging...

    The story of the band Vitesse, the band with more line up changes than Spinal tap.

    Okay, having line up changes is something every band has to go through, although with the Beatles they always said "it's going to be the original four and nobody else." There are bands out there who don't have any of the original members in their current line ups but of all the Rockbands ever...

    Peavey AlphaBass 8 Ohm tap?

    I found a 4 ohm tap on my old Sunn 2000S from some research. It was originally 8 and 16 ohm. So, the Alphabass has a 4 and 2 ohm output, I see it's going in the opposite direction, but there are more wires coming from the tranny. I'll never use the 2 ohm output.
