    SIT bass strings/stringtree question

    Input signal distortion question

    hey guys, so i'm using this Ashdown bass compressor (Ashdown Engineering | Bass Amplification) that my brother gave me for free to beef up my schecter model-t PJ bass through my rig. i think it sounds cool because it beefs up the hell outta that bass, gets me a nice tone close to rob deleo's on...

    Hipshot tremsetter on a strat

    i've got one of these in my '89 USA strat, and honestly, i just don't think it works. at all. they advertise that all the strings stay in tune when you bend, but from my experience, that's bullshit. when i bend a string, the low E still goes out of tune. on top of this, every damn time i...

    How do you mic with condenser/dynamic combo?
