I know that I'm bucking the ultra small ultra light trend with this rig, but sheeesh it makes a lovely noise! Two gigs this weekend with challenging rooms to eq (one long thin bar, one with a sloping 45 degree roof) and it sounded so sweet both nights. Lots of compliments from fellow bassists in attendance, well worth the knackered back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might get one at some point, maybe when they stop being £800! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next month it'll probably be different. I like a lot of mids to my sounds. A bit John Entwistle/Geddy Lee. It cuts through the mix better and I don't sound like every other bassist. I also use an Ashdown Overdrive pedal. I normally set the overdrive quite low, but again it helps it cut through and it sounds more aggressive and raw. Which is how I like it. Like I say, I'm still just fiddling and I'm not entirely happy with it. I can try and record some sound clips for you if you like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 This is my setup. A Carvin R600 MKII Head This was bought as a part of a 'RedEye' 2x10" kickback combo. The original owner had blown one of the emminence speakers and had replaced it with a cheaper aftermarket. The blowout had obviosly done damage to the remaining cone and the horn. It sounded rough, and I didn't feel it was putting out anywhere near the level it should have been. I'd fancied a 4x10" anyhow, so rather than fork out for a repair on a cab i didn't really like, i started looking. The SWR Goliath III is a mega cab, nice and clear. Love the sound. I'm running at 500w 8 Ohm. Had to have the Carvins power stage rebuilt about 18 months ago, and ever since it's the best amp for me, even better than previously. The only thing i'd consider replacing it with is a Genz Benz GBE1200. But to be fair, I know where i'm up to with my rig now, and it sounds good for me. There are also a few of my basses in the background, bit of a crappy mobile photo, but you get the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
