    Fender American Deluxe Jazz noise

    I had the same issue with my Marcus miller bass. I switched the stock pups for bartolini dual coil jazz and problem fixed. No noise at all. Passive, active, highs cranked all the way up. Perfectly quiet. Still has the stock pre amp

    Micro Bass Heads, why doesn't everyone use them?

    Personally speaking, I think it all boils down to sound. I used to use a really nice Eden combo with semi parametric eq and compression etc,but once I heard Markbass I absolutely fell in love. While I wouldn't consider them in the micro, mine only weighs 6lbs, it has a tube pre and pumps out...

    Best 12" speaker?

    Good point. Ok, IMO most 12's have a brighter sound than say 2x10's. So which 12" speaker has a good warm sound. Maybe something with say a stronger lower-mid range than upper-mid range. But also has enough punch to get through the mix and not get muddy. I think that JBL is rated at 600W...

    Best 12" speaker?

    Ok, so I have been thinking about downsizing my rig for a while now. I want to have something portable that I can take to a small venue and add to it if I need to beef it up. I was thinking of getting two single 12 cabs similar to the Eden D112XLT. I found a cabinet manufacture here in San...

    Sansamp RPM & Demeter VTPB 201

    My sansamp Rackmount was great but two problems. It is very warm. Maybe too warm (if that is possible) and my other complaint is the DI is VERY sensitive. So much that I could not use pedals on any time of AC power. I had to switch to batteries only. Oh, and my biggest complaint, no ground...

    Best 2x12 for the money

    I am having a problem with my Avatar 2x12 right now. Either the speaker is blown or the bracing in the cabinet is no good because the back is shaking like crazy. Also, If it is low end you want, you should look at the 4x10. I have both and the 2x12 was definitely voiced higher than the 410.

    Blown or Worn out Speaker? Avatar Cabs 2x12

    Well not sure if it is my amp making my 212 speaker cab shake, that does seem like bracing or something along those lines. But a speaker (or speaker cabinet) only lasting about 3 years seems kind of short.

    Blown or Worn out Speaker? Avatar Cabs 2x12

    Ok, each cab is 8 ohms, that is what the rating on the back says but with out pulling each speaker out I can't really tell. The 410 is 1000W and the 212 is 600W. The Markbass is 800W at 4 ohms. When i connect both cabinets I am assuming I have a 4 ohm load that can handle 1600W. The 410...

    Providing Your Amp as the Backline for a Gig

    you know, I can totally relate. I used to be one of the guys asking if there was going to be BL provided. And I still think that shows run better when the same bass amp is used and the same drum set is mic'd. I guess it is less work for the sound engineer to do. But I also didn't have as big of...

    Blown or Worn out Speaker? Avatar Cabs 2x12

    Hi! I have two Avatar Cabinets a 410 Neo and a 212 Neo (1600W bridged at 4 ohms) and I love them but I just switched from a Sansamp Rackmount and Crown Power Amp (1400W @ 4 Ohms) to a new Little MarkBass Tube 800. My new amp kept cutting out when I ran both cabs and had all the cables...
