I bought an AmPro II Jazz bass from an authorized (and well rated) store via Reverb. Got a great deal from what I thought ($400 off list).... fast forward to 60 days after purchase (outside of 30 day return warranty) and I finally get the opportunity to take it into the studio for some...

Thanks y'all! And yes - I did have a typo - I meant to say the HD cab has a 4-8ohm switch (not the head). I'm hoping to get a hold of a PA soon to test these. Thanks!

Hello! With the Hartke TX 300 and 2 112 cabs. The head has a built in compressor (not needed a ton with my electric, but with my acoustic it would help). With proper gigs and a sound engineer, I imagine Direct out is all that is ever needed, but when playing a DIY outdoor gig with just a basic...

Reviving this thread with another related question: With the Hartke TX 300 and 2 112 cabs. The head has a built in compressor (not needed a ton with my electric, but with my acoustic it would help). With proper gigs and a sound engineer, I Imagine Direct out is all they need, but when...

Funny enough, I was just googling to learn more about the Tx300 and found Charles Barrow above in this thread- he actually sold his to me! I am now running the TX300 through an HD112 and an HL112 stack. It is quite loud, but not as loud at my old TCE BG 250. However, the TONE is so much...

This info is all amazing. Thank you for the help and the visuals! Now I'm going to see if I can rename the band to "Power Alley". :)

I love the drawing so much! Very good tips thank you! Our guitar player had suggested putting one cab on the other side of the stage (stage left and stage right) but I guess stacking them is still better, right? And if I had put one on the ground in front of the stage and one behind me...

Hello! I play a Fender Jazz Bass in a scrappy cover band (think outdoor brewery gigs). I also play an upright bass through a Realist pickup on a few songs. We played our first gig with my new-to-me Hartke TX-300 + HL112 & HD112 cabs (so, two 12" cabs stacked on each other- both set at 8 ohms-...

Oh that’s funny. I am and that’s why I got it! I will keep you posted if I end up selling it. Right now I have that half stack in my office and it looks so cool… but do I need cool when I am almost never gigging out? Probably not…

Yeah I just reached out to ask if he'd honor his original price and let me grab the HD for $100 today. I really had no plans to ever own a "stack" again seeing as how little I play out... but I can always sell the one I don't want if I keep not using it. What surprised me was playing them side...

So I have a TC Electronics BG250 and have never really loved the sound quality of it. I found a great deal on someone selling a brand new Hartke HL112 (their newest, lightweight speaker) for $250 (list $650). And after I bought it, I found out an acquaintance was selling his Hartke TX300 head...

I play a Fender Jazz Bass (Mexican Standard) in an indie rock band- not too heavy, not too light except for a couple of acoustic songs. Our lead singer (best friend) got me a $75 giftcard to musiciansfriend for my birthday and I wanted some feedback on what I should use it on. I currently...

Thanks guys. Played the GK and it sounded awesome. Might snatch it up because the Peavy guy's outta town for a little while.

Thanks Guys! Anyone else?

So apparently lots of bass players are either in desperate need of money, or upgrading all of their equipment. I am in need of an upgrade to start playing rock (nothing too heavy) in small to midsized venues. Looking on craigslist, I have been able to find the following - each combo for $400...
