B20. I have two. 😁 Two inputs. Quiet no hiss. Good ipod and headphone connect. New $80 sale.

Don't like guitar strings on a bass - sound too "thin" - maybe it's just me.

I'm interested in this amp - how to connect an Ipod to this amp? It has a CD type input? You need some adapter?

I love my Glen Burton P bass. Squier is good though. Toby is my favorite if you want to spend about 170. Low action is the way to go for slapping.

good advice, i'll consider those 2 amps.

I think the B20 is ok for jamming, I need something in my room to practice, plug in ipod, carry around. Looking to spend about $100.

It's in my son's room. Big and Heavy, don't need two of the same.

Looking for something portable, but not toy-like. I have an Acoustic b20 and love it. Quiet, sounds great. Not familiar with the Fender though. Anyone try both of these and have a preference?

Good topic. I am a guitarist learning bass now for 5 months. I'm trying (1) index/middle (2) combo thumb, index and middle like mark Knofler and (3) thumb, (4) pick. My 12 year old, stubborn guy prefers thumb, and I'm encouraging him to at least try the index/middle - wrong/right? His...

I own the Jag SS. I have tried the Mikro, and thought the sound was pretty good, but it just seemed too small. Note: the Jag SS neck is even smaller (more cramped) than the Bronco which I own as well.

This lesson has a great flow to it. Starts simple, gets harder. I'll play this tonight.

Squier Bronco and the new Squier Jag SS - I like the Bronco, my son like the Jaguar.

I just did that - cleaned shop. Got rid of a Epiphone Electric, a 12 string Seagull, old Squier Amp, 3/4 accoustic - now have 2 new amps, 2 new bass guitars and a Strat - couldn't be happier, and did not spend much at all.

... "find the notes of the key Eb based around the A string, 6 th fret" - yes, mambo, that was my first attempt - the song "plays" better at this position, more fun and sounds better.

I'm a guitarist who is now learning bass. Just jump in and play bass - learn the fretboard REALLY well, and guess what - you have a headstart when you later get that guitar, b/c you know 4 of the 6 strings. BTW, Bass is helping me be a tighter guitarist - I love the bass guitar, even though I suck.
