KingPrawn Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Can i ask. What in your opinion is the best practise amp around at present? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshead56 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 just sold it The Ashdown Mini stack thing. Normally cannot stand Ashdown, but this was lovely! Perfect for jamming, even with a band and small pub gigs. sounds bigger than 65 watts Off to pick up a PJ Briefcase on Tuesday, can´t wait!

zero9 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Phil Jones Bass Buddy. With the aux in allows you to play along to tracks as well. The headphones means you don't have to annoy the neighbours / wife. It also runs on batteries. Perfect for me ... Wil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How big do you want & how much you plannin on spendin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Have you thought of the Tascam MP-BT1 "Bass Trainer" I have one and find it indispensable. Almost totally silent practicing, brilliant! Edited January 16, 2010 by Tinman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive had to reapir mine 3 times, but its easy enough. Someone else was selling an Ashdown mini rig on here somewhere for about £100 Its in the amps for sell section, Ill see if I can find it for you.

KingPrawn Posted January 17, 2010 Author Share Posted January 17, 2010 Thanks all. I like the Tascam, but not sure if thats just G A S. Any thoughts on the eden practise amps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 As a personal view I think there is more choice now then ever & you can't go too far wrong with many of the practice amps out there these days. This certainly wasn't the case when I started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krispn Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 i got a Line 6 Studio 110 recently - great little box that allows for headphone practice and can run a mp3/cd into it for silent play along. Good for small acoustic gigs too and a rather solid feeling practice amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I like to make a little bit of noise at home though I have a Line6 Lowdown Studio. I plug the Tascam into the aux/mp3 input of the Line6 to play along to CDs.

Clarky Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I quite like the look of this new practice amp from Orange - anyone tried it?
