chuck_stones Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) As an owner of a GK 400 RB-IV, I can honestly say one thing about the GK 'growl' is that it cuts through the mix better than other amps I've used, but its definitely an acquired taste and not to everyone's liking. I seem to recall that Duff McKagan from G'n'R used a GK amp - might be worth listening to some of his bass parts if you want an idea of the sound. Just to second Thom's comment, I run my GK amp head eq almost flat, and just eq my sound on the bass.

Buzzy Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 Thanks for the opinions,after all the positive comments I'm gonna try one out. Nice that people are happy with the flat sound as I really can't be doing with loads of messing about with settings. The stuff I play (Stones,Faces) just needs a nice classic bass sound,I use a Jap 62 P or 75 J so I don't need anything too zingy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckstop Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Yeah loads of people use GK. Justin Chancellor, Flea, Leland Sklar, Ron Carter and Dave Holland to name a few. Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
