Mesa Boogie WD800

[iaint]

Has anyone tried the WD800 with upright bass? Had a shot of a D800+ and really liked it for its relative simplicity but I play upright as well and can't help feeling the WD800 might work better with a less"baked-in" tone possibly and the parametric mid controls handy for problematic rooms. I live in Orkney so getting a shot of a WD800 soon is impossible...

Cheers

What type of pickup / microphone system are you using?

 

It’s a bass amp with a tube pre amp so should be warm and lovely. Like all amps it’ll take some dialling in I guess.

I've got a Realist fitted. The other reason I was looking at the Mesa was the onboard HPF-very handy especially when using small cabs
