budget bassist

it is VERY tastefully done though IMO. Love that body shape.

Use of an active crossover (popular in old Laney and PV gear) before the power amp, and the use of multiple power amps seems to have more or less disappeared as cabs have become better at full range, and amps have got gruntier. I've run a Laney G300 and Crown DC300 lab amp in a true crossovered/stereo configuration before into 2x410s and 2x115s. Broke all the current rules by having two seperated stacks one each side of the drummer(s) etc etc, but it sounded totally enormous for everyone on stage and off, honest Trouble was the rig was bigger than most of the venues we played at Still it never failed to make an impression![/quote] like i say, it depends how you run it, though i only have experience of crossovers in PA systems

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='534408' date='Jul 7 2009, 09:14 AM']Erm I don't know. I think the difference is a crossover is one signal being split where as this is 2 separate amps but I could be talking bollocks, all I know is it sounds awesome and weighs a ton.[/quote] Hmm, with a crossover you do have to run two amps, depending on how you set it up. Cool idea though

[quote name='51m0n' post='534230' date='Jul 6 2009, 10:33 PM']Very very very clean Very loud Quite bright - EQ takes some getting used to, very very musical and powerful as a basic tone shaping control Its not noise free by any means (audible hiss, but nothing to worry you in a gig situation) At the price paid it was amazing bang for the buck, the price has risen very sharply unfortunately....[/quote] hmm, can you dial in some nice tubey growly overdrive? And it looks like i may be looking for an ashdown ABM if they're that expensive then

[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='531642' date='Jul 3 2009, 01:23 PM']In basic term I have 2 power amps in my amp and it is set so I get full range going through the 4 X 10 and only low range going through the 1 X 15. I'm sure someone can explain it better than me though.[/quote] So it's basically a crossover then? Sick rig man, i'm jealous! My head isn't even working at the moment! [quote name='51m0n' post='529387' date='Jul 1 2009, 10:02 AM']New Berg HT115 in the house Strickly speaking this is Plux's rig (my eldest). But he never gets around to posting (far too busy playing) so I thought I'd share. Got the HT115 off Birdy, and here is the full stack including the HT210, sounds fantastic![/quote] I have to ask, how does that head sound? Any good for metal? (i'm talking HEAVY metal here), thinking of an upgrade from my ashdown electric blue head

thta's gorgeous!!

[quote name='skankdelvar' post='533043' date='Jul 5 2009, 01:35 PM']Yes, indeedy. A golden age for bass players. OTOH, RIP Shergold, H&H, Acoustic and other deceased 70's brands.[/quote] Yes but with all the dead old brands, there are lots of new exciting ones markbass, TC electronics, esp, italia, lakland, traben, the new squiers. There's a lot of good gear! Also hagstrom are back too (i know you didn't mention them but i just thought i'd say)

[quote name='BigBeatNut' post='533040' date='Jul 5 2009, 01:33 PM']Just discovered I just missed the last bass bash. Any plans for another one yet ? Andy[/quote] Yeah this is the first i'd seen of it, i'd have tried to make it otherwise. Oh well!

nice one! i'm jealous!

my old natural G&L tribby l2k has had a fair few owners, 4 that i know of.

i know what you mean, kind of. There are still a lot of fenders out there, but there is a lot of different stuff, and quality gear for not much money. It is a good time to be playing

A mate of mine recently bought an ibanez guitar in pretty bad condition, it's about as old as me i think. It's been a bit of a project and he hasn't used it. He recently learned that what he thought was just the finish wearing away in the back of the neck where the nut bolts through, was in fact a break in the neck, despite me telling him numerous times! He left that one over 45 days, so i think he's gonna get it fixed instead.

lime or aqua never liked anything yellow

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='527534' date='Jun 29 2009, 11:06 AM']Umm..? If you follow the strings from the nut, they should be going anticlockwise around the pegs...[/quote] oh sorry didn't spot that

looks nice anyways
