  2. If any of you bassplayers out there considering a Hybrid amp , then try to grab a Hughes&Kettner Quantum amp. I tried one years ago. A friend of me had one (now it's sold). Sounds incredible. Think they don't make it anymore. But of course , there are many good Hybrid amps on the marked.
  3. As long as both are expensive , I'II buy !!! A "weakness" many bassplayers suffer from , haha.....
  4. A nice looking bass from the french manufactor ! Gonna buy it ?
  5. That one looks like mine . I have a '91 Warwick 5 NT with the serial number on the top of the head. How it sounds ? Haha , guess !!!!!
  6. I have a German made 91' Warwick Thumb 5 necktrough . Bubinga of course .Insane growl and punch. I will post some pics soon !!!!
  7. Welcome ! I love those great contrasts in musicworld ! You play in orchestras and big band , I play in Death Metal , Heavy Metal and Jazzbands . You simply MUST love the contrasts
  8. I'm a "Metalman" , and to me , nothing is like Ampeg SVT Classic on "bonecrusher" volume. But , when that being said: My Gallien Krueger 1001 RB II sounds amazing with my Aguilar cabs. Also on high volume.
  9. For some years ago , I tried a Epifani rig in England . I was totally amazed about the sound . Thick and fat . But that was then. I'm from Norway , and there are no Epi dealers up here !!!! Bloody shame.
  10. I had one back in the eighties ! It mas a black "metalshaped" beast called Westone Raider II . Sold it in 92' or 93' . One of many things I regret !
  11. Never tried MarkBass amps at all ! I have two ampeg 8x10 cabs.(I'm only use one of them at the time). If I get the chance , I'd like to try an all tube MarkBass amp for my ampegcabs. When that being said: My alltube ampeg amp is THOUNDEROUS !
  12. Hello DrBike ! And HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM NORWAY !!!!!!!
  13. I'm an all the way Ampegdude , but here's lot of nice pics of the great italian manufactor. But I'm the owner of one first class MarkBass product : MarkBass Distorsore pedal . There ain't no better growl out there !!!

    Behringer

    [quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1319058168' post='1409551'] It certainly appears that many of the Behringer pedals are cheaper versions of other companies pedals (not just Boss---there are MXR and Line6 ones too, and probably more I've forgotten). Some of them are really great pedals, others are really terrible. Are there any in particular you are interested in? [/quote]some years ago I bought a graphic EQ pedal from Behringer. Well : I won't do it again . Simply a box of cheapest crap ever. I also owned a pair of 6" studiomonitores from Behringer. With average use (1-2 hours a day , and not loud), they broke within a year. No more Behringer for me.
  16. Hi there ! How's the quality on Squier Bronco ?
  17. Hello and Happy New Year bassplayers everywhere ! I'm a norwegian bassplayer , playing in several bands. From melodic Death Metal , Heavy Metal and Jazz . I play 4 ,5 and 6 string basses. My main (for metalgigs) rig is Ampeg SVT 300 amp with 8x10 cab. My other amp is a Gallien Krueger 1001 RB II , with a Gallien Krueger 2x10 and 1x15 Ashdown cabs. My basses are Fender standard jazz 4 string, A lovely bass to play. My 6 string is a Ibanez BTB necktrough with Bartolini mics. Outstanding instrument strung with Thomastik Infeldt Flatwound Jazzstrings. But my main axe is a 91' Warwick Thumb 5 , necktrough. This is of course a world class instrument . He's equipped with DR strings . This boy is NOT for sale !!!!(My wife goes before the Warwick). I use no effects with my Ampeg rig , but with GK rig , I sometimes use a Markbass Distorsore and a Electro Harmonix "Soul Preacher" compressor. Both very good pedals. Markbass delievers first class stuff anyway. Finally and again: HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU !
