Hey, as a consumer and I walked into a shop that had Mb/gk with maybe the cheaper ampegs? I would be impressed. I have heard that the gk and Mb are rather clean amps and the ampeg has a little more dirt, then you would be able to have variety. The BA series seems to be in that price range. Though I'm only a consumer not a retailer and thus have no experience in the field.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has tried one of these amps out? Are they any good?

Just heard this one on an episode of everwood where someone dies, which may have something to do with it's overall saddness in my mind [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMnUSV-1M-k"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMnUSV-1M-k[/url]

Hmm... good point. I bought it second hand a few months ago now. I was perfectly happy with it at the start then either my ears tuned to a certain tone as it is completely different to the ibanez GSR200 i had before it. I don't know.

I think you can get a sweet sound. but you can also get a real trebly clang almost. I would also like it to be pretty even over the 5 strings, like the B is generally very bass-y to get the other 4 sounding nice, or the other ones are two trebly and the B has a nice sound?

Hey I have 5 string BO Warwick Thumb. It has MEC pickups and i assume pre amp. What are my options on pickups and preamps?

Frank.[/quote] I was on BMS website and they seem to have hiwatt, roland and blackstar, Baird don't really have a complete website. so do not really know. but i'll go down and check them out! Thanks

Well that'd be nice idea, my local however is 200 miles away in a different country. Do you post? haha

How do you get one?

Hey! Who among you have had experiences with Eden amps? are they any good? How would you describe the sound?

Aye, the reason that I use the roland is so that I send a balanced output to the mixer. Though I'm sure I'd be able to find a dirtly cheap DI about somewhere. I also have warfedale subs and tops in the garage... there also happens to be 2 1600W power amps in there! maybe no need to DI out to the PA with that going on. but I'm pretty happy with that set-up until I get my Eden amp! Though the speakers are good enough, for the mean time to keep the cost down. They are 300W at 8Ohm. I have jacked straight in to the mixer which was okay, but the roland is a touch better. I have one of those behringer bass v-amps, which I could use although I can't seem to find a send/return fx and when I jack straight in the hum is ridiculous!

So I have no money at the minute and have been using a 120W laney combo which is pretty bad! So I decided to look around the stores to see what we have, that I may be able to use. I came up with 2 Peavey EuroSys 3 15" speakers, powered by a 600W powered mixer that I have DI'd into via a 20W roland guitar amp! I'll post some pictures. Does anyone know how to DI out to a PA? is it even possible? When I get money would it be best to get a amp hed and use the speakers, get a combo or just get a good pre amp?

you see the thing that is good about the phil jones bass pre is that it has an onboard compressor, i know it doesnt allow for all the tecnicallities of ratio etc. but surely something is better than nothing and i don't feel like paying for a proper compressor. I've heard good things about the aguilar pre's but also expensive?

What would be good for deep, rich warm tone?

What are your opinions? I'm currently using a 120W laney amp and it isn't very good it has a slight hum off it a louder volumes and I want to get something that'll help get rid of that and give a better tone. would a preamp help? I have no idea I wouldn't even know how to wire it up, completely useless. I usually DI out to the pa and don't need anything big. or should i just invest in a good amp and cab? anyone had experiences with the PJB bass buddy? Philip Edited: I will also need something for the studio.
