    Found a '93/94 MIJ Squier P-Bass for sale! Should I buy it? Are they any good?

    Their asking price is just 850 Brasilian Real, (151.52 USD). Hoping there aren't any issues with this bass, seems way too cheap. I'll probably try it out in person this week anyways, though.

    Found a '93/94 MIJ Squier P-Bass for sale! Should I buy it? Are they any good?

    Hi TB! I was browsing a classifieds website recently and found someone selling an older Squier P-Bass for cheap. I asked the seller for some higher-res images and after running the SN through a Serial Number Decoder it turned out to be a 1993/94 made in Japan Squier Precision. I'm still a...

    Need some help IDing the country/year/series of an older Squier P-Bass

    Update: Seller sent higher-res photos! Ran the SN through a Serial Number Decoder and It's indeed a 1993/1994 MIJ Squier Precision bass. They're selling this bass for pretty cheap, I'm very tempted to buy it... We'll see what happens.

    Need some help IDing the country/year/series of an older Squier P-Bass

    Whoa, the markings on that '93/94 MIJ Squier P match up pretty much 100% with the seller's photos. Thank you so much!

    Need some help IDing the country/year/series of an older Squier P-Bass

    Hi TB, Recently I found this older Squier Precision Bass for sale on a classifieds site, but I can't tell exactly when/where it was manufactured and what series (Affinity, Standard, etc.) this bass belongs to. I'll ask the seller for higher-res images of the headstock with the SN, ASAP. In the...

    Need some help getting some (any!) info on a "Hiwatt Maxwatt B100 15" bass amp

    Greetings TB! Joined the forums not too long ago, and you guys have been so nice and really helpful in giving me advice for getting a new bass amp, so thank you in advance! Last week, I found a Hiwatt Maxwatt B100 15 bass amp for sale (used) at a very reasonable price. Overall, it seems like an...

    Hiwatt Maxwatt B100 15 - Specs? User manual? Info?

    Nearly 3 years too late, but have you managed to find any info on this amp? I just found this exact same Hiwatt amp for sale used. I've literally spent hours trying to find specs or manuals on this amp, but I couldn't find anything. Do you think it's an amp that's worth buying as a second-hand...

    Best second-hand combo bass amp for a beginner?

    RIP :dead: Beleza, obrigado mais uma vez pela suguestão! Esses amplificadores da Ampeg parecem ser bons. Eu encontrei um BX200 da Staner à venda pertinho de onde eu moro, assim que eu estiver com tempo mais folgado vou lá testar.

    Best second-hand combo bass amp for a beginner?

    Yeah, I think you've got a point. Most of the options I can afford are typically in the sub-100W range, so that's what I'll most likely end up getting, but I'll probably need yet another upgrade further down the line if (when, gotta stay positive!) I join a band.

    Best second-hand combo bass amp for a beginner?

    That looks like a real mean amp you got there! I'll take a look around and see if I can hunt one down. Now that you mentioned it, I really hope I don't strain my back too much hauling that thing around... Also, your fretless P-bass looks amazing!

    Best second-hand combo bass amp for a beginner?

    I was taking a look at the Rumble Studio 40 and LT25 last week, seems like a pretty fun amp with all the digital tones, connectivity, built-in audio interface, etc... Honestly, those features just seemed kind of gimmicky to me, but for the same price, I could get a much more powerful Rumble 100...

    Best second-hand combo bass amp for a beginner?

    Honestly, I have absolutely no idea how the Meteoro amps fare against the Fenders, Hartkes, Ampegs, Peaveys, etc. I guess it can't hurt to try them out, but honestly, I'm really not expecting much.

    Best second-hand combo bass amp for a beginner?

    (Portuguese version) Por enquanto eu ainda tô deixando de lado as marcas brasileiras (Meteoro, Staner, Borne, etc.) pra ver se eu consigo um amp legal de uma marca mais conhecida, mas também pela minha experiência ruim com meu Impact CB60 da Borne - é um modelo de 15 watts só, o tom é bem fraco...

    Interesting, are the Hartkes that bad when it comes to tone? I was really starting to like the Hartke A70 after reading some older reviews. Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to find any Ampeg gear for a reasonable price here.

    The Rumble 100 seems like a really great amp! It's a shame I can't even afford a second-hand unit, bass amps general are quite expensive here in Brazil.
