90's reissue XD

hey, i'm in the middle of sorting a deal on a Orange Super Bass, but the problem is I wont be able to hear it until I get home. so what are they like? anyone recommend them? anyone own one? played through one? etc Many thanks Pete

hey all, Im having some trouble deciding what to do with my double bass. atm i play a cheeeap laminate double bass what I play live every single week in a duo called The Nomads, the bass is amped using a Dave Gage Realist pup, a Fishman Plat Pro preamp pedal, then in to a markbass amp. now how much difference would it make using a better bass with a solid top, or solid top back and sides for that matter. the bass i use is a big orange box! i have found a late 50's cech lam bass that loooks awesome, but it just sounds the same to the one i have when recorded with a condenser mic. so my question is would a better bass improve the sound using the set up i use? i know through a mic it would be better but i rarely need it for that. so if a better bass doesnt improve the sound then i might as well get this 50's laminite bass that doesnt look like a orange box and go for looks. slightly confusing lol let me know what you think. many thanks Pete [attachment=131258:Untitled-1.jpg]

Hey all. I have just put together an acoustic duo with a double bass. The thing is i dont just want to be the guy who plays deep notes in the back, as the other half is the lead vocalist and acoustic guitarist. So im looking for songs eith a good bass line. Stuff like love cats seem to go down alot better than songs with a simple follow aling chord stucture. Any suggestions on songs? Thanks Ps. If you wanna check out our duo, search for The Nomads in facebook or go to www.facebook.com/daiandpete

hey guys, the di on my mini mark has just stoped working, you do get a signal but its sooooooo small its useless. any suggestions? Thnaks Pete

[quote name='artisan' timestamp='1336129025' post='1641270'] fellow BC'er mr Bassman very kindly let me borrow his Plat-pro but i didn't really get on with it very much & prefer to use a Boss bass eq pedal instead. both do boost the signal strenght as both have an output volume control but if boosted too much then feedback becomes a major problem. [/quote] i have just bought a markbass minimark to combat the feedback.

Yeah thats fine. When ever you have time. Thank you so much! Pete
