Was it the B string? I think that's how it comes stock. The saddles are reversible - I think it's something to do with the string break angle (?).

Any excuse for some https://www.draw.io/

I had a similar issue on another bass caused by the string not sitting fully in the nut, due to the nut not being cut quite correctly.

Love my BB735A! Mainly as a P bass i.e. passive, 100% neck pickup. Occasionally if I need more bite then active, 75% bridge, slightly boosted mids and highs. Strings are Dunlop flats.

The very cheapest option might be taking a line out from the first amp into the aux input of the second amp.

I found better audio quality from a headphone amp like Behringer HA400 (about £20) versus the very cheap passive double adapter type. Another advantage is independent volume controls.

There was a similar discussion a couple of weeks ago Someone did buy the cab at 299 so I guess it's the correct price. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/338747-tc-cab-deals/

Your preamp's DI is at mic level, so use a mic level input on the QSC. Myself, I use the 1/4" pre-amp output (instrument level). My RCF has mic or line options; I use mic as that's close to instrument level.

Only an upright sounds like an upright... but if you're after suggestions, how about an Ibanez SRH505?

The manufacturer's marketing for my speaker is "frequency response: 50 Hz - 20000 Hz", and I use a 12dB/octave HPF at 60Hz - and I think my low B sounds pretty good!

How loud do you need to be? You'll be giving up something moving from 500W into 2x12 to 350W into 2x10.

Noticed a typo: it's 36lb, which is just over 16kg. Very good combos, from what I've heard. There's one currently in the marketplace (not mine) https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/338814-markbass-alain-caron-combo-121-lite-1x12-500300w/

I think the HX Stomp does, but not the others. A good EQ pedal with DI is the MXR M81. Not two-channel though, so @willgatesbass would have to get a good non-slap tone straight from the bass, then stomp the M81 on for the slap stuff.

I've mentioned it before somewhere, but the RCF has two side handles and also a top handle, which is three in total, and makes it easy to carry in different configurations e.g. getting through narrow doors. The Barefaced only has one handle!

I have the "little brother", an RCF 732A, and it can definitely handle a low B nicely. Yes, it's heavier, at 39lb. Older setup was Shuttle 9.2 & Big Baby 2; I'd have gone back to that if I wasn't happy with the RCF. Your Super Compact is a good cab - I haven't played one but I had the previous generation Compact. I don't think it's full-range though - I didn't love it for upright.

I tilt back in front of me, 45° like a monitor wedge. You can hear yourself so much better this way. A normal bass combo hasn't really got the correct form factor for placing in front of you, even with a stand. It's too tall.

But this is a good thing, as I can now use the pre-amp of my choice, rather than being stuck with the built-in one.

I'm not aware of an off-the-shelf, high-quality, flat-response, tilt-back bass combo.

Yes. Different horses for different courses?

One option is a pedal which can digitally store your EQs. E.g. Zoom B3n; HX Stomp; Source Audio Programmable EQ; and probably many others. I myself use a Zoom MS-60B. I have it set up how I like it and then stomp through the presets at the gig. It's a bit fiddly for tweaking right in the middle of a gig though. But it is really small.

Some speakers have a "baked-in" tone. You might like this or you might not. Ampeg 8x10 would be a classic example of a "good" baked-in tone. If however you want to modularize your tone-shaping and your amplification, then the most-logical option is a flat-response cab.

You could use the pitch shift function of software like Reaper or Audacity (or another one). I think Audacity can detect the frequency of the file and then you can correct that to the nearest "real" frequency.
