    My band is about to go on a 10 day tour and I would like to buy a mini amp head to lighten the load. I have an Ampeg SVT 212AV that I currently use a GK800RB with.

    Is an SKB BASS SAFE good for everyday touring? Better than a case?

    I just got myself a Limited edition Black Paisley JB Japan, and I was wondering how to protect it properly. We play around 100/150 shows a year, from big to small, most of them around Germany, travelling in our own van, with other instruments and PA and stuff. Would you guys think it's...

    Slayer and Thrash Metal King Tom Araya out on Farewell Tour in New Jersey

    Love em or hate em, Slayer's music has had a massive impact on modern music, but even though I'm a fan, I never paid much attention to Tom or his bass lines. You have to love a guy who can sing like that and claw away at the bass for hours on end... and now, at his age. And since as usual...
