Hi guys 

Please help

I’ve Just joined my first band at the age of 53 😊.

I need to buy a gigging combo for pubs, village halls, small function rooms etc.

The band plays pop, disco and soul covers and comprises of drums, keys, guitar,  vocals and a couple of brass.

Im looking for a warm clean combo with enough power  to handle the above venues, I mainly play finger style and i’m not a slapper (only at weekends!!)

Budget, under £700.

Please guide me in the right direction as I haven’t a clue, only played on a 50w amp before!!

Thanks in advance

Is this still for sale?

Hi Del
Could you tell us the weight please?
Thanks

Hi, no I only have a practice amp for my 4 string so I’m looking to upgrade really.

I went into my local music store today to have a play of some budget 5 strings.
I have to say this is not the first time I’ve considered the 5 route.
My problem is, when I’ve tried budget 5 strings before the b string in the shop has always sounded lower in volume in comparison to the other strings.
Now, when I go to my local shop I’m kind of at the mercy as to what amp they plug it into.
Today, I tried 3 sub rays, a squier jazz and a Ibanez but they were plugged in an EBS 500w 2x10 combo.
I have to say I just couldn’t believe how great these basses sounded, with the b only slightly week on the Squier.
The rays sounded fantastic.
I can’t possibly have a 500w 2x10 EBS in my house.
My question is what kind of amp for home use, ie wattage and driver size would be good to replicate a good b string sound.
My budget will be around £200-£300 for an amp?
Thanks guys

Whats the B like on this my friend.

What's the b string like on this?

Hi Sammy,
Have you any idea of the weight?
Cheers

Thanks friend 👍

Hi Guys,
Just bought a BB614.
Please would someone be able to tell me what gauge of strings these basses would have shipped with when new?
Thanks in advance
Andy

What's GTB?
Sorry for being thick 😊

Ah Steph, I see you took my advice 😊

Blimey is it that loud?
Tbh that's what I would like to go with, have you the 112 or the 115?
Thanks

Hi Guys,
I'm coming back to bass after a little time away and would like some advice
I need a practice type amp for bedroom levels.
My question is, what wattage/power/speaker size or any other contributing factor do I need to look at when purchasing an amp to get a good sound from an extended range bass?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated 👍

Cheers guys

I've just bought one of these, great bass for the money.
Does anyone know what gauge of strings these were originally shipped with?
Thanks

Any one see it on the red button?
Jeff wrote some great tunes, good lefty bassist as well!!

I would like know, if possible what bass was used on the recording of He's The Greatest Dancer.
I find it difficult to differentiate types of basses within the mix.
Thanks in advance
