Hi iv tried just about every amp there is over the years i now have a peavey combo a ashdown 300 2x10 combo a markbess 102 combo plus markbass bass bin and a ampeg 350 amp with cabs to match so i more or less tried em all and would suggest if you want a decent amp try a ampeg ba 100 watt combo real good value for money great sound and you allways get a good price when you sell it . Hope you get sorted keep on rockin.

Got to say you lads are really helpfull and knowlegable thanks to you all for your help .

Dont let that upset you mate i never last more than 2 weeks in the bands iv played with.

[i]looks a bit like a bxp not sure how much they are worth but i have seen them on ebay around £140-00[/i]

Good point 07 the reason i bought it was it was really cheap so i expected to spend a bit on it and it was left handed and left handed guitars are hard to come by thanks for your info cheers mate

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1321043335' post='1434896'] Play it first. The softness of the body wood tends to have a big influence over how warm the bass sounds in my experience (having owned two Quantums in my time). The risk is that you may find the bass to be more sterile sounding than either your warwicks or fenders. Check whether its got Bartolini pickups or EMGs, the Bartolinis can sound warmer on a brittle sounding instrument, also SWR amps make a brittle sounding bass much much warmer and ear friendly. My fretless Quantum had a neck issue because the fingerboard wasn't stiff enough (according to Rob Green). It wasn't an early one, it was from about 1995. [/quote] thanks kiwi

[i]thanks for advice lads sorry about the spelling happy jack[/i]

Hi Leroy i use a markbass 2x10 combo and neaded more bottom end so i tried just about every cab available and settled for a markbass 151 hf and cannot believe how good this sound is i also have a ampeg stack a ashdown stack and a peavey combo but the markbass tops the lot. Good luck with the search for the right cab cheers mate

Hi muddyman i had the same problem trying to sort out the best combo i have got a ashdown a peavey a ampeg also ampeg stack but settled for a markbass 102 and must say it is the best sound i have ever had i also have the markbass 151hf 1 x15 bass cab and put them together for a sound that will make your ears bleed. Go to your local music shop that stock markbass and see what i mean. Hope you get sorted out good luck mate .

Hi all you fellow bass players can any of you help me .I been after a left handed ricky for some time now and no luck so i was wondering could i convert a right handed one to left handed without to much hassle as any of you done it if so could you advice me please thanks .

hi iv got ampeg stack ashdown peavey and markbass and the best sound i get after trying all these is with a markbass 2x10 combo and sit a markbass 1x15 bass cab under it the 1x15 is the bigger markbass cab i think they call it the 151hf. Hope this helps good luck with whatever you buy.
