I play with a Fender Jazz Deluxe so its no lie that every amp is going to sound good to me. I love the gain on channel B, it really gets heavy. Gallien-Krueger Backline 600 Bass Head and Backline 410blx II Bass Cab - 400 (Near SDSU) Hello,Thanks. I also have the footswitch that allows me to change channels. To ensure speedy dispatch please pay on day of purchase. It has a great sound and really packs the punch. But I feel like it's missing a certain presence. ![]() Id look for a good 2x10, or 4x10, but its hard to suggest much since you havent told us what kind of music you play, or whether this is just for practice/ jamming, or a gigging rig. ![]() Currently, I have a pretty decent overall bass tone that I'm happy with. The Backline series was kinda underpowered, as the reviews suggest, but is was versatile, and you could dial in a pretty good variety of tones. 1 scorp77 Wasn't quite sure where to post this, so hopefully this forum is appropriate. PS: check speakers and cables used by your frriend, maybe it had some problem there and a click or pop caused by the ground lifting was the straw that broke the camel´s back.Ī camel which was already quite overloaded. I have the Backline 600 head with the matching 2x10 and 1x15 cabinets. Gallien Krueger Backline 600 Discussion in ' Amps and Cabs BG ' started by scorp77. This amp does not have a proper short circuit protection, but a mute.Īcceptable in a home Hi Fi amp, not enough in the rough stage life. Gallien-Krueger Backline 600 2-Channel 300-Watt Bass Amp Head Featured Listing Fully functional, solid and versatile tone, gets LOUD. In a nutshell, reproduce, at the Lab, anything your friend can do on stage. (here you might use a resistor instead of a speaker, for sanity).Ĭheck it regularly for undue heating, weird waveforms, something strange. Let it cook for a couple hours at full power. If all looks well, plug it straight into the power line, load it and apply a steady tone to it (400Hz, 1KHz, your choice) raising power step by step until clipping. It might be unstable, on the verge of oscillation. Its not the best of the best, but its great for the price GK has a number of nice heads that are inexpensive including the Backline 600 that Id recommend checking out. Can't talk about the ground switch, it should damage nothing, but maybe this guy had some weird ground problem and it raised its ugly head when lifting, so in an indirect way it might have somethiong to do.Īnyway: rebuild your amp, test it first with bulb limiter without load, then add a speaker load without turning it off, inject some signal and scope the output. The Gallien Krueger Backline 600 is a great choice for any bass player looking for a quality head on a budget. ![]()

Best of all, Apollo and the reader understand an important message of kindness, understanding, empathy and compassion. It is understandable since he has been putting out a book a year since 2005! I want to close with a positive. His writing in this book just reads like he is bored and phoning it in. But right now, I think he needs to take a break. ![]() Don\’t get me wrong, I would love for Riordan to tackle African myths in about five years. I fear this is an introduction to the successor series to Magnus Chase. The character, whose real name is Olujiame, is revealed to have a potential connection to other gods, from African mythology perhaps. Worst of all, a new character was introduced who at first seemed to only be an object for Apollo to fascinate over, even earning the offensive title of loincloth Jimmy. I don\’t necessarily mind that they are a lesbian couple, but combined with Apollo\’s constant references to past boyfriends and cute boys it adds to the overkill. The same role could have been sisters with one having a daughter and the other a niece. Emmie and Jo are lesbian parents to a crucial character. That\’s not necessary and again overkill. Further, every significant new character in this book was either bisexual or homosexual. There are more subtle ways to do the same thing without making it seem like Apollo is attracted to every male he sees. We don\’t need every time Apollo sees an attractive male for him to comment on their attractiveness. I am also gay, so I have no qualms with a gay character but Apollo\’s commentary on cute attractive males in complete overkill. It proved to be a major positive for his character and the series. I think one of the biggest minuses for this book was the overemphasis of gay/lesbian characters.Now, I loved when Nico DiAngelo came out as gay in The House of Hades. This particular format proved to be flat, static and boring. There was no goal that we could travel with our heroes. We spend the entire book in and around Indianapolis. By that I mean that we did not have the typical quest that is so common in Riordan\’s works. My first negative is that the story was very static. Now we get to the negatives, which are unfortunately prevalent. As a history buff I love seeing this new take on the series. Unlike previous series that Riordan has written, the antagonist is not a typical god, but former Roman Emperors. Further, I love the villains in this series. He even introduced some African mythology in a potential hint for a new series, but that is also a negative so more on \”Jimmy\” a little later. I wish Riordan would have spent a little bit more time on these. Another good part is the introduction of new mythologies, such as the Crete and Minoan gods who predated the Greek societies. ![]() Hopefully this growth will stick and salvage the final book in this trilogy. The downside of that is that his growth takes basically until the end of the third act, so we get very little of the new and improved Apollo. It takes some very tragic occurrences for him to get there, but Apollo finally grows. Finally, Apollo began to show some growth and began to recognize the value of humanity beyond just amusements for gods. The fact that he did not grow is my biggest annoyance about the first book in the series, The Hidden Oracle. He started out as the spoiled god of the sun which defined his character in the first of these books. First, I really enjoyed Apollo\’s growth. I will try to pick out some strengths, then address the most glaring weaknesses and end with a few more strengths. The jokes were simple and lacked the cleverness that defines Riordan\’s typical work. There was a little bit of humor, but it was not the humor we typically get from Riordan. The heart and humor which defined Percy Jackson, the Kane Chronicles, Heroes of Olympus, and at least the first tome of Magnus Chase. Riordan for whatever reason is officially in a slump of epic proportions, arguably dating back to the first Trials of Apollo book. ![]() I\’ve been reading all of Riordan\’s mythology series\’ since the beginning with Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief but this one fell flat to me. ![]() 7/31/2023 0 Comments Deja vu seizure![]() Some were sentenced to more than 10 years in prison. Years later, my testimony at the trial as a sitting member of Congress led to the conviction of nearly a dozen individuals including the Republican mayor, the local chair of the Republican Party, and the president of the Board of Aldermen. They were manipulating the ownership of undeveloped land for the construction of townhouses largely using zone changes, friendly appraisers, and bankers. In my Forrest Gump-like life, when I was president pro tempore of my hometown Board of Aldermen, I saw banks fall like dominos and people arrested in a flash. Like two trains heading in opposite directions with contrary objectives but on the same track – a pin in search of a balloon – this could quickly get ugly. But this strategy inadvertently created a banking crisis. Other factors today could be rampant government spending which brought on high inflation, resulting in many interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve to curb inflation. And the same principles apply: The revenues do not support the debt. Today commercial real estate is the main problem. The pin for the balloon is usually increasingly high interest rates. But when the balloon pops and the values return to earth or interest rates are so high that nobody can afford to buy these properties, everything unravels. This causes existing owners to sell to them and make more money than expected. Here is their method: They buy chunks of an area’s properties with each purchase going for more than previous purchases. However, that does not mean banks should finance the purchase if they see something weird occurring, despite advantageous appraisals, like one entity making several purchases to artificially inflate the price of properties in the area. The value of a property is what people are willing to pay for it. Multiple banks failed in Connecticut, duped investors lost their money, and a region of the country took decades to recover. ![]() The FDIC needs more regulators and administrative folks to help protect our banking industry.īack in the late ’80s corrupt folks in my hometown used a similar method. ![]() Yet millions of people suffered, and billions of dollars were lost with the fingerprints of bankers all over the transactions. To a degree, we have failed to learn the lessons of 2008. ![]() history – First Republic Bank, now part of JP Morgan Chase – follows the Signature Bank and Silicon Valley Bank failures. The forced bank seizure and sale of the second largest bank to fail in U.S. That is exactly what we are witnessing, yet again. When we do not show respect for the law, society crumbles. If you do not punish your dog for relieving himself on your new carpet, or punish the student that disrupts the class, or the company that breaks the law, you get more of the same bad behavior. ![]() So, why were hundreds of bankers not arrested during a banking crisis that led to our Great Recession from late 2007 to 2009? Apparently, the banks were deemed too big to fail and the bankers were too clever to get caught. As a result, the whole banking sector was a giant balloon just waiting for a pin to come along. They issued subprime loans to those with poor credit histories held and sold artificially overvalued properties that went underwater – thanks to appraisers and packaged bad or toxic loans which were doomed non-performing loans to unassuming investors and banks worldwide. ![]() 7/31/2023 0 Comments Pro player picks![]() ![]() Jason Kelce, right, was selected in the sixth round with the 191st overall pick in the 2011 draft.īart Starr, Deacon Jones, Terrell Davis and Tom Brady also have at least two things in common: They too are among the league’s biggest stars, and they were selected in late rounds of the NFL Draft - Starr in the 17th, Jones in the 14th, and Davis and Brady in the sixth.

Through the 2023 NFL Draft, 88 players have been selected first overall, with the most recent being Bryce Young. ![]() The draft is one of the most notable events in American sports, with live broadcasts of it produced by ESPN, Fox and ABC. Once the AFL officially merged with the NFL in 1970, the "common draft" simply became the NFL draft. As part of the merger agreement on June 8, 1966, the two leagues held a multiple round " common draft". This led to a massive bidding war over top prospects between the two leagues, along with the subsequent drafting of the same player in each draft. īefore the merger agreements in 1966, the American Football League (AFL) operated in direct competition with the NFL and held a separate draft. By 1958 all twelve clubs in the league at the time had received a bonus choice and the system was abolished. ![]() The winner of the "bonus pick" was eliminated from the draw in future years. The team which received this "bonus" pick forfeited its selection in the final round of the draft. įrom 1947 through 1958 the first selection was awarded by a random draw. Playoff participants are sequenced after non-playoff teams, based on their round of elimination ( wild card, division, conference, and Super Bowl). Teams that did not make the playoffs are ordered by their regular-season record, with any remaining ties broken by strength of schedule. Teams also have the option to trade with another team to move up to a better draft position. The team with the worst record the previous year picks first, the next-worst team second, and so on. The draft rules were last updated in 2009. Each NFL franchise seeks to add new players through the annual NFL Draft. To be eligible, a player must be out of high school for at least three years. The National Football League Draft is an annual sports draft in which NFL teams select newly eligible players for their rosters.

It’s where whatever tool (or weapon or PCC) you have equipped lives. The tool rack on the right side of Sam’s backpack is a special slot. Make sure you’re using this extra space instead of filling up your back. You have a special utility pouch that holds up to four blood bags. You don’t have to carry blood bags on your back or suit. The important thing to note here is that cargo attached to Sam’s suit won’t fall off if he takes a tumble. Sam has four points (shoulders and hips) where small cargo can attach. It’s the default for where cargo goes and the only place medium or larger cargo fits. There are several other places cargo can attach, though, and it’s worth knowing what your options are: Auto-sort puts the heaviest things are on the bottom, and it moves small cargo to logical places. When you’re managing your cargo, always hit the auto-sort button (Triangle). You can see what size something is when you look at it in the world or in a menu: Check for the S, M, L, or XL next to the description. Small cargo is the only size that Sam can attach to his suit. Kojima Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via PolygonĬargo comes in four sizes: small, medium, large, and extra large. It absolutely can fall out if it’s in your backpack. For example, if you attach something to Sam’s arms or legs, it won’t fall off if you fall down. What you’re carrying, where it’s attached, and how it’s attached all have an effect on Sam’s balance and how likely things are to fall off when you take a tumble or run into MULEs. ![]() That takes care of a lot of packing - but understanding cargo and your backpack will make you a better porter. In a game with so much luggage, luckily there’s an auto-sort button (Triangle). Hey, you know how we’ve spent the last few hundred words talking about using cargo? Well let’s spend the next few hundred talking about what to do with the cargo you’re not using.Īrranging cargo on Sam’s backpack and suit is a minigame of its own. Even better, there’s an excellent chance that someone else will run into the same problem you did, use your ladder in their game, and send some Likes through the multiverse. There’s no particularly bad place to, uh, place a ladder. While you should rely on other players’ structures whenever possible, you’re still going to have to make stuff on your own. Maybe you’ve forged a new path, maybe timefall has eroded away a useful ladder, or maybe other player’s stuff just hasn’t shown up in your game. Build what you need where you need itĪ lot of the time, someone else already placed the ladder you need before you got there - but not every time. Also, even this wildly theoretical backtracking will be much easier and faster when you’re not lugging the weight of a rhino on your back. Literally the worst case scenario is that you might need to backtrack, and given that this is literally a game about traveling, that’s not bad. If it’s green like the text in the image above, then another player left it for you to use. And if trust isn’t your thing, open your map (or just look around) and search for green things. Trust that they’re there to help you along, and leave behind all that extra equipment. Other players who’ve gone before you left behind ladders, ropes, and bridges that are now in your world - and (as the sign says) free to use.
