    Bass Rig cutting out

    Yeah i usually have the treble set above everything else, bass at around 3 and mids at 12. I'll still probably sell the head for a new one, just because i'd like something a lot more sturdy and trustworthy. Would buying a 350-500 watt amp @ 4 ohms work well with two 8 ohm cabs?

    Bass Rig cutting out

    Long time since i've used these threads but since i'm in the market for new gear I know this is the best place to go. Anyway, I was quite a younger person when i got together my first bass rig, and now that i'm starting to realize i need to setup a better one, I decided to sell it off, add some...

    Help figuring out a small part of this song: The Story So Far - Just Like You Said

    There's a small little solo break during this song that i've been trying to figure out, and i got the first phrase of it out already. It's not the hardest line in the world, but i'm pretty inexperienced in this kinda stuff so I'll appreciate the help! The Song: Here's what i got so far (tab...

    Strings with a nice growl.

    I ended up just getting some chromes, and they sound pretty nice actually. Not the full on growl i wanted but it does better than my previous strings.

    Strings with a nice growl.

    Yeah i just listened to a few demos and they sound nice, I didn't think flatwounds would get me a tone like that. I've only ever tried a set of Fender Flatwounds and they were pretty much just thumpy. I play in a punk band though, so i think that flats might give me a hard time being versatile...

    Strings with a nice growl.

    I just got the part of playing bass for my school's musical. Well, I'm the understudy, but nonetheless I don't think my clanky and bright stainless steels have the right kick that i'd want to show off during rehearsals and whatnot. The play is Grease, but I want a nice growly (if i'm using the...

    Well the Fender 410 and Carvin 210 are now gone, so unless the Yorkville doesn't sell too by next weekend I might be cabless for a while :hmm:

    Help Me Choose My First Cab

    I tried the Rumble and didn't hate, a little too middy though. Let's keep in mind though that i'm a 16 year old on a low budget. I won't be buying more than one cab in the forseeable future.

    Help Me Choose My First Cab

    Oh, i'm pretty inexperienced with this kind of stuff. I always like to think more watts means more volume but the more I learn about amps the less it seems to be true.

    Help Me Choose My First Cab

    Awesome, it's selling for $169. I didn't think 210's could get quite that loud haha.

    Help Me Choose My First Cab

    So I got an Ampeg PF350 for christmas and yet to buy a cab for it. I need something that will deliver a nice punchy tone with my PF350 and ATK300 combination. The used selection at my guitar center specifies a few in my price range, right now i'm looking at a Carvin BRX210, Fender Rumble 410...
