I will admit I am not running an always-on compressor these days, but back when I did I started with a Moen Uni-Comp. If you need other suggestions, peruse the same site in more detail - vast wealth of knowledge (and I believe the author is a member here as well).

Yeah the light in that room is weird, it's surf green, which is not quite as green as seafoam.

Thanks @Greywoulf - those two are not actually a pair. That amp just happened to be out the day the bass showed up. The bass is a new Squier Classic Vibe Mustang, and the amp is a mid-60s Gibson Scout (guitar amp). Should push about 12W through a single 10" Weber (10a125). On a slightly related...

Thanks, all for the awesome resources! I've long been interested in the Mustang, and the Little Pups especially. I'd love to find one with a maple fingerboard one day (it seems Fender did make some in the 70s), but until then this little Squier will serve as a fine stand-in. @Greywoulf - I'll...

Good stuff C-RAM, please be sure to post back here. I'll do the same if I make any decisions or discoveries. Oh, and @Drifter_Bass I'll take a member number if that's cool. Glad to have found this club!

And perhaps a follow-up question: has anyone converted a lab combo to bass speakers, or speakers that can handle and work well for both guitar and bass? I have no idea if this is feasible or what speakers to consider, but love the tone and controls of the lab, but am also interested a bass...

Yes, I can and have done that and it works well. The reason for the question was more about whether (or under what conditions) I could safely use the combo without going through a proper bass cab.

I am comfortable playing bass through my L7 at home or at quiet jams and practices, but not so much at louder practices or shows. I should clarify that even my louder shows aren't that loud, plus we always have PA support. I also have used the Lab as a head into my bass cabs in addition to using...

Whoa! Thanks! Didn't think to look in the parts list, but there lies the answer (much of it anyway). Really appreciate the guidance!

Thanks beans-on-toast! Mine are round backs like the ones you pictured. Know anything about their power handling?

Not sure how it took me so long to find this thread (well, it's probably that I have an L7 so it never occurred to me to inquire at TB about a guitar amp), but I'm glad I did! If anyone's interested mine was bought used in NC in 2014; serial 3775, brownish faceplate, not mint but in pretty darn...

PM sent re: Linden

Interested. PM sent.

Since we're doing recommendations, here's a couple of different ways I would go on this, though none of them are towards the Lehle posted above. Not that it doesn't look absolutely look a awesome, but is admittedly overkill IMO (or maybe that's just me). Here are a few less extravagant...

I'm no expert, but I think what you need is a mixer. Here's why; first I don't know of any box that'll combine them on a single channel (as most mixers / devices are going to override your xlr when you plug something into the line jack), and even if you got both signals on one channel, you'd...
