the666thmessiah Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I hate that this is my first proper post on here, but I enjoy to play my bass in my revision breaks, and now this just cant happen with decent sound! ~it keeps making popping sounds every 3-5 seconds, this is also volume dependant. I quite like it because up untill now it has been quite versatile, and, since Iv never had any experience with amps before, does anyone know if its blown? ~if not, does anyone know what the hell may be up with it? thanks in advance x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fekalizatorius Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Is your bass active - battery could be dying. I used to get that depending on the bass output level with many amps. Try a different amp. If it continues, the problem is not in the ashdown, but in the EQ/pickup circuitry in the bass, usually the "tone/bright/trebble" knob is usually the one, that causes the noise. Also faulty cables can also cause this kind of problems. Make sure to check every piece of gear. Cheers, Fek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
