what are you looking to do with your sound?

[SteveC]

FWIW - I think most people can find a use for a SA BDDI.

I want more character ,rounder sound with nice headroom.
Vette is active (treble is to spanki) played trough Warwick sveet 15

1.Change the Warwick onboard preamp BUT keep the MEC PU's.
2.Change your amp!!!

[milo]

change amp for what?
Tech 21 landmark 120
Hartke kickback 15"

[Le Basseur]

Ummm...the Hartke seems a fair choice for the price.
Have you considered a tube amp,now that you mentioned "character"?

[milo]

thats why i am asking bout Sansamp .
what about Sanamp ACUSTIC DI connected to kick back

Please don't compare a Sansamp with a tube amp!
The Sansamp is OK by itself but I never tried a Sansamp/Kickback combination (I never had both things at the same time).
Looks you're determined to jump on a Sansamp.Fine,but try to run it through an active loudspeaker of some sort or through a small PA output stage,not through a dedicated bass amp.

thanks
I will go to try HUGHES&KETTNER Quantum combos next week
but they are a bit on the expensive site.
I have played EBS drome 12" and i like it very much (i want that sound) but i noticed that Yamaha passive basses sound the best with EBS and active basses didnt sound so nice.

So can u help me whit choosing amp from 700-1200 $ for practice and smal gigs but very portable.
thanks.

[Le Basseur]

OK,play next week that H&K and LEAVE IT ALONE.
(Personally,I HATE H&K's).
Try getting a Yamaha from your local dealer:

Yes i saw it such a beauty but how the f..... sounds this P pup on 5 stringer ????

Here is bb 415 very cheap around 550$
So ure advice is to buy Yamaha bb 415 and EBS.
Put together is around 1750 $ a little expensive but i think to go with that.

thanks

[milo]
