At least you are cognizant of the trades that are made. Mostly you wind up trading money for lightness. See video of the Barefaced guy holding his 310 up in the air like he could throw it across the room no problem. If you can afford one of those you should be set. An Ashdown Ant could make quite a racket with a 100dB cab like that. If you ever had a hankering for a tube amp now is probably the time. Although a little bit heavy the box size is easy enough to manage on stairs. You need to be still steady on your feet not needing the handrail. At that stage you can go micro.

You were a bit slow. I watched the intro and then scooted to the conclusion. So I caught a blow by of some of the alternative schemes. That softened the concluding statement not one little bit. We won't all be converting to tab after all!

If the rest lives up to the front page I needn't bother at all! Cook's version in three sentences please.

The explanation vid tells what is going on. Whether it was a good idea or not, dunno, take happy happy tune and turn it emo for kicks?

Take the 410 back. The combo with the extension just needs the amp ripped out and a speakon wired up direct to the place the combo amp used to connect. Then you only need a new amp.

You have bassburstitis, in both elbows!!

Natch.

If he is doing his practice he'll need a real amp that can keep up with guitars and drums pretty soon. Metronome.

Gas for orange Gretch duely reignited. I had forgotten I lusted after one of those, thankyou very much. Note lack of exclamation mark.

Has two of a pedal.

More basses than days of the week.

I doubt there would be a good outcome for the OP going down this road, unless with the new model Hartke driver. Reading between the lines, the tone he got from the original driver was a lusty bark from the aluminium cone being overdriven within a fraction of a mm of its life. After some years of this it gave way. Poor little man trying to keep up with his big cousin 410.

It was a question for the OP to consider. GK did some, Ashdown too, looking at the size of some or they may have stuck with A/B. They are all a bit heavier for the tube preamp and extra case so figured it may count in his choice.

Envelope M82, doesn't get lost. Phaser, secret sauce Holden (NZ)... cold dead fingers. P&C category. Prunes and Custard, is it's own thing, so it will always be the best at Prunes and Custard. Don't knock until you tried it. Tuner, Korg pirthblack, works at night in the dark and in full sun. Octave, never felt like I needed any more than the EBS. Nice and simple, works as advertised. Overdrive, almost secret sauce there are so few around. Drum roll for UK's own Sfx RedDragon. Leaves all the meat in the sandwich when mostly overdrives either gut your lows or mess up the mids not in a good way to my ear. Best impression of a gently overdriven tube out there by far if you ask me. Desert Island DI: Sansamp BDDI.

Howdy Doody on bass?

Leaves white residue in places impossible to reach. If you wash it away you're left with green spots impossible to reach. Looks really odd to my eyes.

Who was that masked Mod?

Could also be a flat battery in an active bass. I fear we have been Lownered.

That fuzz sounds great.

I would leave the patina be also. It looks really nice as it is. Polished up would not be my cup of tea at all. You would never get it all back to shiny brass and it would look all wrong 90% shiny and 10% not.

They do sound very tubey but there's a reason for that! Does a tube preamp with Class D amp count as Class D?

1st see if Aguilar supplies reconing kits. Then find your local recone specialist.

Best, yet another preamp. Worst, yet another preamp I didn't really need. The trouble with preamps is they don't take up so much storage space and they tend to breed on you while you aren't looking.
