    Whats up with Ampeg's 15" cabs?

    I paired my 115e with the 112he and I absolutely adore it. Is it a possibility that ampeg underpowered there 115 so it wouldn't sound flabby?or maybe I'm the dolt.

    ampeg svt3 tube change

    the tubes are just stock. I've had the amp for 3 years and have used it a ton for gigs and rehearsals. The amp died on me recently during a gig and I had to go direct. Thank god for dimarzio that my bass didn't sound as terrible as I thought it was going to. Thanks for the help.

    Need to Fix Fret Buzz on my EB-0

    Are you having issues of it buzzing from the pickup, because sometimes the pickup on that bass buzzes. It might not be able to go as low as you'd want it, especially if you play more of an aggressive style.

    Avalon Preamp..best for bass?

    Avalon AD2022 was the setup in the studio I used. It was a treat, it had absolutely perfect transparency. What a price tag though, makes it impossible to attempt to gig with it. It's a real studio monster.

    Carvin LB20 Insecurities

    It's definately worth a shot because of Carvin's ten day no questions asked return policy. I'll just need to play a years worth of bass in ten days, for this I'll need no sleep, hydration packs, an artificial bladder, and fritos. And if it's not what I'm looking for I'll send it pack (maybe with...

    Carvin LB20 Insecurities

    thanks to everyone who posted. I'm figuring on the LB20 because I enjoy the neck through body option. It gives you access to the higher frets and helps sustain. Walnut body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard, tung oil finish, and stacked buckers. If I don't like the pups I'll take them out and...

    Avalon Preamp..best for bass?

    While in the studio, my rig was getting a very weird noise probably related to grounding issues or something. Anyway I plugged my passive pbass into an avalon vocal preamp and got the best preamp sound I've heard so far. Has anyone else witnessed the pure beauty of this preamp? And could it be...
