Another for the SR505, just totally lacked everything mexican jazz, poorly built and clunky, never understood why I bought it
-
Crazy talk Took me ages to dial down my amp, you have to accept these are some powerful pickups. Nothing on earth sounds like a stingray.

Have a go with an Ibanez bass Tube Screamer - should give you what you're after

My new Pointies- 80’s/early 90’s Japanese Porn
Defo replied to Old Horse Murphy's topic in Bass Guitars
Wow, I rocked a Charvel for a few years in the late 80s/early 90s in a prog band in Newcastle. Got a lot of strange stares from the Sonic Youth wannabees but i didnt care, particularly as our lead guitarist sported a 6 string Charvel and we were the business :) -
How do I know if my combo is loud enough to gig with...
Defo replied to MacDaddy's topic in Amps and Cabs
Yep, funny how I have my volume on 4 at Practice and have to dial it down to 2 when I play a Gig -
You should try a Vanderkley 2x10, great for rock, funk, prog, sounds best with an amp with a bit of character so not with say Aguilar but should be interesting with Orange

Blimey that’s a steal for easily the best class d head out there -
I buy a bass every year, max spend 2K. Always appreciate the thoughts of Basschat members, what should I go for? Cheers Andy.
-
Blimey, don’t do anything without considering Vanderkley and Tecamp/EICH
-
Don’t pull the trigger until you have tried Vanderkley
-
Old school Trace will deliver but heavy heavy
-
I got mine for the same reason, 10 second change over if my tecamp goes down. The Elf is loud enough, any louder and it will just be backline with a PA, I don’t play those gigs generally. It doesn’t sound like an 80s Trace but judicious play with the eq will get you close enough if you are playing an active. I like the HA3500 comparison, I played one of those for years.

I get Nash but I can’t understand how you can make copies with the Fender logo on them without having been crushed in court years ago? Andy
-
Woops sorry just saw the No Trades at the top!! -
Hiya, any interest in trades? Andy
-
That's my rig Puma900 and Vand 1x12 and 2x10. Bass Direct use it to demo and i kept coming back because my gear never sounded as good at that. Eventually I upgraded, that was 2 years ago. Really brings out the best in a Musicman btw
-
I guess we need to consider the Trace 1x10 that’s just come out, I’m planning to get one this year, haven’t tried yet though
-
Myung describes them as the perfect bass. Mine is my main gigging bass, there’s not a tone I can’t get out of it. Be careful though, they’re bloomin’ powerful and you’ll need to make sure it plays nicely with your gain control
-
Thanks folks, will see how i get on with the ELF, it’s a cracking amp, just can’t get over the size, I’ve got it running through a 15” Cab with a Celesation and it shakes the house.
-
Thanks folks, so I don’t need to go out and buy as Radial then?
-
Got an ELF for Xmas so wondering if I can double up and save on the DI?
-
EICH/Tecamp fit the bill for your requirements

Looking for lightweight combo for onstage monitoring
Defo replied to Keefaz's topic in Amps and Cabs
I sometimes use my Hartke HD50 as a vocal monitor for small gigs, sounds great but make sure you start with the volume on zero and go up slowly.... -
If not why not? Thanks folks

We are lucky bass players
