    Case for my Streamer Stage i 4string???

    Doesn't anyone make a nice form fitting case for my Masterbuilt Streamer Stage i 4 string? I bought a Spector NS Molded Flight Case, but had to return it because it still wasn't a tight fit. I love the way that my Fender J bass fits into my SKB i series waterproof case. I also bought a Rockcase...

    What is the Bassline that inspired you to pick up the bass?

    It sounds silly now, but 9th grade, Golden Earing, When The Bullit Hit The Bone... Later I was WAY into Rio by Duran Duran.

    Being embarrassed by basses you love?

    My first Bass! Hondo 2 SG short neck 4 string... I wish like hell I could find one! I gutted all the parts off of it, including the neck and transfered them to a bass i made in woodshop in 1985... lol

    The "Yes, That's My Dinky Amp Onstage And Proud Of It" Club--Nothing bigger than 100w and 115 or 210

    2000 German Warwick LMT Edition Corvette, Boom Bass 212Tank (1200 Watts), and my Mesa Subway D-800+. Perfect set up for gigging, IMHO... I can walk into a gig with one trip with all my gear.

    Who was the player(s) that made you want to play bass?

    I was 9 years old,... My babysitters boyfriend was in a band, and my mom picked us up late one day so I got to watch their band practice.... Don't know the bass players name, but "Play That Funky Music" is etched in my memory forever from that day. That was the moment that made me wanna play Bass.

    Mixing a 4 ohm and 8 ohm cab...good or bad idea?

    Okay, So now here is my question... I have an Ampeg pb800 which is rated 300 watts @ 8 ohms, 550 watts @ 4 ohms, and 800 watts at 2 ohms. So now, I have a 4ohm 2x10 cab and want to add a 4x10 cab. If I add a 4 ohm 4x10 cab I know that it would then be 2 ohms, and my head says it can handle that...

    Ohms FAQ

    Great post,... So I understand now that I can use my Avatar 2-10 (4 ohm) cab, with my Hartke 4-10 (8 ohm) cab, and will be using 2.667 ohms...

    Mixing Ohms????

    Okay, so I bought an Ampeg PB800 amp head. And it is rated 800 watts @ 2 ohms, 550 watts @ 4 ohms, and 300 watts @ 8 ohms. Can I mix an 8 ohm cab, and a 4 ohm cab? Do I Daisey chain it? or run them parallel? Will it hurt anything? Will one cab be louder than the other? From what I have...

    OHMS, OHMS, and OHMS...

    I just bought an Ampeg PB800. In the Technical Specifications section of the manual it lists the Output Power Rating as follows: 800 watts RMS, 2 ohm load, 120 VAC. 550 watts RMS, 4 ohm load, 120 VAC. It doesnt list what the watts RMS is with my 8 ohm cabinet. I have found online...
