I bought a 1968 Fender Bassman head the other day with it's original tubes. I went ahead and replaced the 3-7025 and 1-12AT7 preamp tubes and bought a matched pair of 6L6's. I read where the early Bassman's have Fixed Biasing. I think the name is deceiving - "Fixed Biasing." It sounds...

I'm considering buying the Audix DP2 or DP3 Drum Mic package. They seem to be good mics. I was curious if anybody has had any experience with them. Should I get them or something else. I'm mainly using these mics to record. Thanks. Scott.

It seems that a lot of Audio I/O devices have issues with the VIA Chipset. I am specing out an AMD system and wondering if the AMD 760/761 Chipsets support U133 IDE Interface? I have noticed that most of the VIA chipset motherboards do. I haven't noticed any motherboards with the AMD 760/761...

I've been wanting to buy a digital recorder and have been trying to find the best unit that's under a 1,000 bones. The Zoom MRS-1044 seems to be a good unit for $699US. - 10 tracks (6 mono & 2 stereo) - built-in effects - 100 virtual tracks (10 per track) - midi out - optical out - 20 GB...

Our band records ideas, riffs and the start of new songs on my Tascam Porta02mkII. They are rough recordings that I like to convert to mp3s, so we can listen to them to generate ideas and "clean up" our songs. I currently use the RCA outs to plug the Porta02 into my computers sound card...

Does anybody know of a Minidisk Drive that can be internally installed into a PC? Basically like a internal CD-ROM Drive but be a MiniDisk Drive. Thanks.

Just like most guitarists, I'm always looking for different ways to get that "perfect" tone. I've been reading a lot on Bogner amps. I was wondering if anybody here has any first-hand experience with these amps. If so, please give me your opinions. I was wanting to hear the Bogner Ecstasy...

Has anyone noticed weird "chimes" or "dings" when they use the Hiss Reduction or Clip/Pop Eliminator? I transferred a recording done on a Porta02 through my computer using CE2000 and tried to remove the "analog hiss" from the recording. When I used the hiss reduction weird "chimes" and...

Our band is currently in the process in buying our own "PA System" for practice and gigs. We bought a Peavey CS800X Power Amp and are looking for speaker cabinets to buy. We play clubs and parties and are tired of renting PA Systems. Does anybody have any suggestions on what PA speakers or...

I need to replace the EL34's in a Marshall JCM900. I know that every time the power tubes are replaced, they should be re-biased. Is that something I can do or should I take it to a professional? I would really like to learn and do it myself. Has anyone done this themselves (the right way)?

I have been "trying out" the Marshall JCM2000 TSL100 head. It has the sound that I am looking for but the 100 watts is a little much. I want to be able to POUND the EL34's without drowning the rest of the band out! Marshall has a TSL60 head that is 60 watts. I haven't been able to find any...

Does anybody know a link to a Guitar and Instrument Price guide? I have done some searching but have not had any luck. I am selling a guitar and would like to get its current value. Thanks for your help.

What are the most common effects used for Vocals. For example, what type of effects does Maynard James Keenan(TooL/A Perfect Circle) or Jonathan Davis(Korn) use? Any ideas or thoughts. Thanks. [Edited by Boots on 08-14-2000 at 07:48]

I want to get an acoustic guitar to haul with me everywhere I go. Especially to work so I can play during lunch time. It will probably get a little "banged up" through time, so I don't want to spend over $200.00 ($US). I was thinking about getting the Martin Backpacker. Does anybody have a...

Does anyone use a DigiTech XP-300? I'm thinking about buying one and wanted to get some other views. Is it worth the money?
