    I Think I’m Done With Class D Bass Heads

    Same story with me. Sold my old Ampeg gear and ran a SansAmp RBI trough a power amp and im over it. Currently looking for a SVT-3 as well.

    If there is PA support, why have such a large rig on stage?

    For me it’s stage volume. I play in a metal band and my drummer hits hard. We also play a lot of small venues and I don’t trust the house gear or sound guy. Some time there are only monitors for the singer. I simply can’t leave it up to chance and I need to control my own situation.

    NBD!!! The Bassyou told me not to buy!!

    My singer purchased a Hatebreed toured bass that was signed as well. Im sure he "overpaid" for the bass too, but it's worth it! No different than someone buying signed sports memorabilia. Looks great, congrats!

    Who REALLY makes your bass?

    Apparently Lando on July 28th 2004 at the Dingwall factory in Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada.

    Threatened of being fired (from 2 bands) because I won't take a spare bass...

    If you can't afford two basses, don't have time to show up on time, and don't want to take your band leader serious you should not be in that band.

    Are bass amps obsolete?

    I play in a metal band and it would be absolutely impossible to play with out a cab on stage. The wedge monitor just doesn’t cut it. I even refuse to turn down my rig so the sound guy can “get a good mix”

    Pickup swap that made the biggest difference in your tone?

    Seymour Duncan quarter pound in my MIM P-bass was extremely significant. It’s a whole new bass now.
