    Bass Magazines am I missing something ?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Thanks for the contribution to the thread...... good debate

    IMHO - Bass Player it too high brow and aimed at the pro player. (it's only recently they started to include Tab in their transcriptions) From a journalistic perspective I can see why it has it's followers

    BGM seems a little more broader in it's appeal with plenty content for the hobbyist...... there has been some decent product reviews and profiles but from my point of view plenty of interesting ground not yet covered.

When I was a lad and the only decision bass players had to make was whether to use one or two 15 inch drivers Electrovoice were the dogs danglies.[/quote]

    Fair comment I guess..... but how does one go about matching cabs to drivers without massive expense on trial & error ?

    I guess that's what the manufacturers / R&D depts are there to do

    It'd be really interesting to hear (for example) about someone transforming an Ashdown cab by inserting Celestians

    Guys,

    I suppose many bass cabs are built to a budget

    Price no object, what bass drivers would basschatters recommend ?

    Eminence seem to have a good reputation for bass drivers

    what experiences have you had in replacing stock drivers in well known manufacturers cabs ?

    Cheers

    I had my eye on a pair of Aggie 112's but i've missed out !!

    I'm stuck for ideas really..... after trying all soprts of Gear I've Kinda worked out that a Jazz Bass into a GK Head really works in a live situation, with the Seperate Horn amp in the head the GK Cabs make a fair bit of sense..... thinking about a GK212 neo and a GK115 neo, but i'm open to suggestions

    Damn that Aggie DB410 is a great cab.... gonna take some replacing !

    [quote name='minty fresh death' post='225064' date='Jun 23 2008, 02:50 PM']I'm getting a new point to point wired 100w hot-rodded superbass clone made up for me soon, I need to check if it will go down to 2 Ohm.

    If it does, would you consider taking an my as new ABM 2x10 and cover in p/x against your db410, I don't imagine it will take long to find it a matching partner?[/quote]

    It is a cracking looking bass. I'd love to A/B it against the similar spec'd Warwick Streamer![/quote]


    We all Know Spectors are the original & best !!!

    Big W just a poor imitation...... :huh:
