just picked up a 655ntf. can affirm it is far superior to the 505 in looks, playability and tone.

oh man just picked up an Ibanez SR655ntf and you're right, that series is killer. First new bass I've ever bought but I needed the B string and something a little easier to palm mute than my 4003, and the only other suitable options were an SR505 and MIM 5 string jazz. I've always been a huge...

the mesa powerhouse 412 has neo's and will blow the GK away for anything punk or metal.

Word. If I were to do any build I'd definitely use plans or make sure I do it with a homie who knows his shtuff and has confidence in my ability to absorb whatever basic wisdom I need especially after checking this thread. I'm no wunderkind.

Used Mesa 400+ with a lot of dirt in front of it

I believe it was Terrance and Phillip who were mostly responsible for saving the country this week

Diamond Bass Comp and Ibanez Bass TS. ISP Decimator too when both rigs are going

5 string Ibanez Gio Soundgear. Still have it. Still can't make the B string sound like much if its tuned any lower than C. ha.

Rickenbacker 4003 with a Mesa Basis M-2000 feeding a homemade 1x18 biamped with a Mesa Bass 400+ feeding a traynor 8x8 cab. Saving up to upgrade the cabs to some sort of Mesa PH configuration.

So today I just went out and rented an SVT 3 Pro and a Traynor Neo 115 to start biamping my rig with. Obviously a bit more traditional than a guitar combo, so for now I'm just going to try and let that rig work my lows/subs (one band plays in drop A now) while i use the mesa to punch the mids...

I recorded this song with a rumble 410 back in October. Chain was: 2012 Rickenbacker 4003 - Boss Tu-2 - Ibanez Bass Tubescreamer - BBE Sonic Stomp - Mesa Bass 400+ - Fender Rumble 410 http://terraformusic.bandcamp.com/track/backpack

Thanks for all the replies guys! I did consider the open back/panelling it off. Obviously no matter what I do here, it's a sketchy idea. That being said, I might try it out just to see if I can add a bit of snap or gargle to my tone. Of course the main amp in my rig will still be my 400+...

Been thinking about acquiring a fender 4x10 valve guitar combo amp to run in a bi-amp setting. Should I: Swap the speakers for eminence bp102's, just leave the stock speakers in and run the combo mic'd at a lower volume, or possibly run the cabinet with two bass speakers and two guitar...
