bass tone

Sign in to disble this ad
Why do I get a fuzzy sound in my bass cab. You can hear it better when I turn my volume up
I play with a Ampeg SVT 450 solid state head through a AMpeg 610HLF and a ESP LTD vintage bass with passive pickups also driven with a sansamp bass driver. It comes from the horn or could it be the speaker itself is there something wrong with my speakers in my cab

Pardon the obvious, but have to ask -- is it the SansAmp?

You may be clipping the signal by having the volume all the way up

The Sansamp itself imparts distortion, or "fuzz", with its "Drive" control. Defeat the Sansamp, or remove it from your signal chain, and see if that cleans the tone up?

I've seen some cases where the horn becomes loose and makes a buzzy sound. If you don't use the horn try unscrewing it from the cab. That usually does the trick.
