    Amps, where to start?

    Thanks TB friends! Everyone’s input is much appreciated! Definitely, I have my fair share of research ahead of me. For sure, I’m going to start playing around with different head and 10” cab. I’ll see what used gear is being sold here on TB and hopefully I strike gold by finding a good deal.

    Amps, where to start?

    Hi! I recently purchased an active Fender American Deluxe J bass and now I’m on the search for the right amp. Any suggestions? I’m new to guitar playing so I never purchased an amp before. I’ve been doing reasearch on some but I was wondering if the type of guitar I’ll be using matters? Edit...

    @dbsfgyd1 I had the guitar tech at GC look at it and he said it’s in great conditions. What do you mean by “Hot”? @TNCreature thanks for the advise! Totally gonna take it to GC and watch what they do.

    Fender AMERICAN DELUXE JAZZ BASS/ what amp should I get?

    Sooo...it’s official, I’m apart of the j bass fam. The seller was so rad, even allowed me to have it inspected by the guitar tech at GC and everything passed. Even the tech said I scored. All I have to do is get it setup. Do you all recommend I get my bass set up at GC? The guy said they charge...

    @PJ Muzikmansky Ah yes! I haven’t meddled with a stingray much but I’ve heard they’re quite the beaut to admire. @Kerem Koseoglu Thanks for sharing! Perhaps down the line I will play with a passive J bass. The music I currently play is more of indie rock/alternative. The seller did originally...

    @stumblebee awesome, thanks. I wonder if there’s much of a difference with the sound quality of the SCN vs. N3 pickups.

    They have SCN pickups. Is that something odd? I did just realize the j bass I’ve seen at GC had N3 pickups

    @jd56hawk it’s in good conditions. No issues with the bass. The person who’s selling it upgraded to a 5 string bass. That’s what I noticed as well... I looked up the serial # on Fender website and found this info.

    Fender AMERICAN DELUXE JAZZ BASS/ what amp should I get?

    Hello! I’m new here and a novice bass player. Currently, I’m on the search to buy a 4 string bass. I’ve come across a Fender Deluxe J Bass made in the US selling for $650. Is the price fair and is the bass worth getting? A J Bass is what I’m after. I have tried J Basses at GC but not the...
