    Jule Amps Monique part 5

    I know there been a lot of tracks posted but see below a rehearsal recording of a soul band project I am working on. Without the backing singer but you still get to hear the goodness of Mo in a band setting. With P bass With J bass I know Mo is very versatile, but I can't help thinking...

    Great amp for old school soul / funk.. but still versatile?

    I was very happy using the markbass TTE500. I did also add a VT Bass pre the amp to give greater flexibility. i chose this set up after a lot of auditioning. However in the 2 weeks since the arrival of my Monique/Minnie pairing I think the Markbass will be relegated to back-up. However M&M...

    Bergantino NV158? ???

    Have you thought about a Markbass TTE500? I use one with a pair of ML112's and love the sound.

    Markbass TTE 500

    I am not surprised by the good match. I spent a fair bit of time shopping for a new head to match my pair of baer 112's and the TTE500 was my choice to match them best.

    Baer Amplification Megathread!

    I used 2 mikes - an SM57 up near the speaker near the outside of the 12 inch and an AKG 214 back about 3 feet in the room. The final mix is about equal from both mikes. It is pretty close to the sound in the room. For some reason, just the AKG alone sounds thinner than the in room sound...

    Baer Amplification Megathread!

    I spent a bit of time to choose a new head for my ML112's. The TH500 was good, but strangely I preferred the AG500. In the end I chose the MB TTE500 and am very happy. I have some clips up on soundcloud. Search Tracks on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

    Baer Amplification Megathread!

    I have had my pair of ML112's for a month or so now and have been using with a TecAmp and an EAiamp 800. I have been itching for an alternative head and lugged a cab around the local suppliers to try some options. I have just taken the plunge on my preferred pairing - a Markbass TTE500...

    Mesa Boogie M9 Megathread: Pt II

    These responses are convincing me that despite really liking the sound of the amp, it just doesn't make sense for someone outside the US. No practical way I can get the amp back to Mesa for the upgrades, it would need to be their tech in Aus. The other issue here is the price - I can get a...

    Mesa Boogie M9 Megathread: Pt II

    Looking for some help on the serial number issue. I am really wanting to go with the M9 but living in Aus we quite often only have access to old stock. Given the history on this thread I do not want to buy a model pre the fixes they have introduced. Return for upgrades in Aus wil be a real...

    I am lucky enough to have received a pair of ML112'sfor christmas. I am now considering what amp to get to partner it with. I currently have an EA iamp 800 and a Tecamp Blackjag. In the short time I have had i am not really sold on either with these cabs. Not sure if it is the class D...

    Official EBMM club thread! part the 2nd.

    I thought I would throw in a picture of my 2 EBMM babies. The Stingray I have had for a few years and the Big Al is new. I really like the passive sounds on this bass with the advantage of switching in active when needed. And seeing someone here does not like the blue PG on the Big Al -...
