Looking for a powered monitor for my keyboard, for use primarily when jamming with friends, but could also be used as stage monitor. Something between 60-120 watts is probably fine, nothing fancy. Right now, I'm considering the new model below, but if anyone local to Altoona has something they don't...

I've got one I'll get rid of... It's a dual cassette Kenwood CT-203, although the closest thing I can find with pictures is the CT-201. I got it back in the 90s, but haven't used it much (if at all). Still in like new condition. I'm thinking $50 is reasonable, but make an offer. PS. If you want to t...

If he'll take the cab, I'd be interested in the bass. What's the prices to buy them separately?

Um, not really. I was told that bass players typically like the 5 strings because you can play more stuff... And It's only a few more bucks, so I figured what the heck.

Forget the Rogue... I pretty much have taken it out of the mix. The reviews were so mixed I can only assume the makers have fake identities and are reviewing it themselves. In any case, the other 2 options both seem pretty solid if I can't find a used bass of decent quality for less than $150...

Yea, I had to edit my post because I had the wrong links in it. Thx. Those are an option.

OK, I still haven't purchased the bass guitar, but I have the AMP. I've got a few models on-line that I'm looking at that will run me over $150 after shipping: $129 - http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Rogue-LX205B-Series-II-5String-Bass-Guitar?sku=512229 $159 - http://bass-guitars.musi...

I'm 2 days away from just buying one of the new Bass guitars that have been recommended in this thread (for $170 or less).

Last chance... If you have a 5 string in pretty good condition that you can offload for less, let me know before I buy new.

Thanks for all your help guys!

Thanks for the link. I'll keep it in mind if I can't find a used bass for around $100.

Ok, got the AMP. Now I just need a starter 5 string bass and I'm all set. If anyone has a relatively inexpensive 5 string bass guitar for sale, let me know.

Sounds good. PM Sent.

http://rockpage.net/phpbb2/topic27305.html Thx, for the link. But, this is more than I need, and more than I'm willing to pay for a practice bass/CAB. As of now, I'm looking at stuff in this range: $129 for a basic 5 string guitar http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Rogue-LX205B-Series-...

I'm not looking for anything too expensive, but I want to complete my collection of "practice worthy" instruments for me to dick around with and learn. But both the Bass and Cab also have to be good enough to have a jam session/practice with... Does not need to be stage worthy! For the mos...

As big as he got from working out in prison for the last 2 years, maybe they should let him try running the ball... Truely put the slash position to the test! lol. In all seriousness, people eat dogs in many countries. And the kinds of dogs that are put up against each in other in a "dog fight&...

I certainly hope so!

When you think about it, there's millions of bands out there... Chances are, just about every cool band name you can think of has been taken and used several times by now by different bands/groups that may no longer be together already, or maybe they just play in some other state/country. This is ES...

Busted! I guess I re-posted this... Anyway, still cool...

I don't normally post this stuff, but I came across this:

I developed a bad back from sitting at a computer desk with bad posture for the last 15 years... It got progressively worse from 4 years ago until last year and the doctors said everything was generally fine and they couldn't do anything for me. The did recommed I see a chiropractor...

I must be a coolaid drinker, because I thought that site was stupid.

Ok, I feel like a dumbass. Wanna laugh? I didn't know you needed music to actually make the lights move! lol. I played some stuff and the lights started going crazy! But, the strobe light does need some kind of controller, because all it has in an off/on switch and a "remote" interface tha...

Thanks for the information guys.

I haven't had a change to look at them again since I put up the post! I'll see what I can find out about the specific light components I have and take it from there...

Thanks again!

I just picked up some DJ Lighting, and it all works - but mostly just shines different colored lights out. Some of the items have motion, but It seems to require some kind of "controller" to actually allow the motion to be in sync with the beat of the music. Does anyone know what I mean? A...

...In my mind, it begs 2 questions... What can we do now? What if we don't do it right now? Just for kicks, you probably wanna add a 3rd question: What happens if we actually do push back and do it* right now? * whatever was derived from question 1 I'd hope our leaders are looking at this situation...
