Do you notice any difference in the amp tone when cutting/boosting only the trebles, with all other bands a 12 o'clock? I have a Fender Rumble 100 (1x12" no tweeter/horn) and do not hear any difference.

Brand "new"...

Hello, anybody from Europe here? I received my new 4 string Sire V3 TS from Thomann Germany and I have a problem with a heavy buzz on open E string. I found another guy with same problem on the Sire Bass Guitar Group on Facebook. Is that a known problem? Do you have any experience with that...

Just arrived! :) I finally joined the Sire revolution! It looks beautiful and the EQ preamp really makes the difference!

What happened to the "G-Krueger" Gallien-Krueger 800RB effect which was present in the old Zoom B3 and B1on? I understand this effect is not present anymore in the new Zoom B1 four and B3n.

Hi, I am looking for a cheap ($100, $150 max) preamp that has a pre-shaped contour/color switch and a decent compressor. Ideally to have a better modern slap tone. No need for other features (DI, etc). Any idea?

Ashdown Studio 10 vs Fender Rumble 40. Which has better round tone? (Only use for practice at low volume!)

I agree, although I believe that the Rumble 40 head is very good, the speaker and the other features are not as good as other 1x10" combos (i.e. the Warwick has built-in compressor and tweeter).

Suppose you can buy for the same budget: 1) Fender Rumble 40; 2) 4-channel head amp + 1x10" cabinet (low/medium-end brand). What would you choose?

Well, I meant prices in Europe and Warwick is made in Germany. I see prices are the opposite in Europe, compared to US (the Fender Rumble 40 is at €270 and the Warwick BC 40 is at €150!) Shame so much of import tax. But I guess after tax, there is not much price difference and therefore quality...

What about Fender Rumble 40 vs Warwick BC 40? They have both 10" speakers, but the Rumble is way more expensive. How is it possible that the Rumble 40 is so expensive, compared to other same size speaker combo amps? Does it have much better quality and tone, compared to others?

I would be myself more oriented towards the Sire MM v3, but I noticed the Cort c4 plus has Bartolini pickups, Markbass preamp and better bridge and tuners.

Is better the Sire MM v3 vs the Cort c4 plus for slap tone? JJ vs HH pickups for slap tone?

Do you really can get better sound through headphones? I tried and don't think so. As long as you are not talking about headphones that cost more than the amply itself!

Hello, for the same price I can buy a Fender Rumble 25 watts or a Warwick BC 40 watts. I am a beginner and I would NOT play loud. I like jazz, funk and slap. I know Fender is better brand and quality, but the BC 40 has bigger speaker (10' vs 8' of the Fender) and a tweeter. I would like to know...
