I wanted to post a new thread. But this forum appears EXTREMLEY OPPOSED TO THAT. So I had to bud in on some thread that might be somewhat remotley similar. I bought a fretless Rickenbacker off of reverb. I had been following it since it was on EBay like 2 years before. It was advertised as a...

I replaced the stock pickups and pots on my Squire P Bass with the EMG "Geezer Butler" Pickups and Pots set. They sound really great. Unfortunately, the stock Squire knobs don't fit the new tone and volume pots. Does anybody have any recommendations for what knobs will fit? I know it's a...

Any thoughts on Dark Glass Amps :roflmao:

So would it just be best to assume that the head is broken, and send it out for repair? This seems like an issue that will be very similar to automobile repair. "Even though there is a problem, we can't identify it.....so keep spending lots of money until we admit that it is dust and you need...

I have, but they haven't gotten back to me yet. If there is something that I can do without having to lose my head for god knows how long to repairs, I would prefer it.

I have been having a lot of trouble with the "Gain A" channel on my GK MB Fusion Head (500W). I am playing a Rickenbacker 4003 SW bass, and currently have the head connected to a GK 2X10 (8ohm) cabinet. However, I have also ran it through an Ampeg SVT 2X12 (4 ohm) cabinet, and have the same...

Can I please get thoughts on what this would sound like with a 4003 SW Rickenbacker?

Thank you for the help!!! I got everything set up, and so far so good! I'm also using MXR 85 Bass and Black Cat Super Fuzz distortion pedals, and a Cry Baby wah pedal for bass. Will using any of these increase (or even lower) the wattage I am putting into the cabinet? My fear is that using...

Will effects pedals change the equation?

I know this is probably a really stupid question but I am a relative newbie and know virtually nothing about electricity, watts, ohms, etc. I have gotten to a point where I want to upgrade from my combo amp and I was wondering if it's possible to run a 500 watt amp (4 ohms) through a 400 Watt...

I want to buy the GK 200 MB head (4 ohms) and pair it with the 2X10 cabinet (8 ohms). Will that Work? Or will I blow something up?

Thanks for all the feedback guys. It looks like the best thing to do is just test um out, and find one that sounds the best to me.

A deep punch, with the understanding that a ric leans a little more treble.

I just purchased a Rickenbacker 4003. I am a fairly new player, and am looking for an amp that will make my girl sound as good as she is supposed to. My uses will mostly be as a practice amp or small to medium (rare) gigs. I have been looking at Markbass and Ampeg Combos. Any...
