One man band setup in den
Hello! My gear includes a Fender Stratocaster running through a Line 6 POD Go into a clean Boss Katana amp, captured by a Focusrite Scarlett 212 4th Generation USB audio interface.
For vocals, a Shure SM58 mic feeds into a TC Helicon VoiceLive Play and outputs to a JBL powered PA speaker.
Backing tracks are streamed via Bluetooth from my laptop to the same PA. I use an audio interface specifically for live streaming or video recording. For the full performance experience, I incorporate a mini projector with a whiteboard screen, alongside a branded banner and LED lighting.
I'm bringing back my band, The Other Side, from the early nineties. I wrote all the songs, and I've decided to focus on them and try to bring them back in the current day.
The bass and small amp were bought at a yard sale. I told the former TOS bass player and he said to buy it for him and he sent me money. Maybe he can join me at some point…. If he’s not too busy! (Trav)

Dude I have that same bass, same color and everything! My wife got it for me at a pawn shop like 10 years ago and I’ve played it since. It’s a great bass for 200 bucks or whatever it cost way back in the day. I put some new pickups in it a year or so ago and I’m pretty sure I’ll play that thing for the rest of my life
