    All-New Ampeg SCR-DI!

    Yeah, I'd use a PP2+ for a whole pedalboard but a one spot should be fine if just using this standalone for practice or for gigging into a backline or PA. The battery is toast pretty quickly but not surprising compared to other stuff I've tried.

    I just had to replace the battery already after getting the squeal. I haven't used it that much and knew the battery would not last long. Just using it through PA, with XLR into the mixer and QSC series speakers. I'd definitely recommend using a power supply.

    All-New Ampeg SCR-DI!

    I just messed with mine using a P-bass with overwound Lollars, going from the XLR out into my mixer, then through 2 QSC K12's and a K10. Pretty cool. I was getting all kinds of great sounds. The YT vids are ok but the sound is much better in-person when using it. Sounds great on the EQ side...

    I was considering the VTbass DI but this has really piqued my interest. Too bad it already looks like it's sold out for now.

    12" Speakers for 2x12 Cab

    Hi all, I've seen a lot of opinions on 4x10 and 1x15 (or 2 1x15) cabs, but I'm wondering what opinions there are about using 12" speakers? The reason why I ask is that I have a 2x12 Hiwatt closed-back cab for guitar with Fane speakers, but since I'm not using it, I was thinking about just...

    Raconteurs Bass Tone

    Thanks guys. This helps. I'm not familiar with string mutes and tried doing a search on them. I imagine they dampen the strings a bit when plucked and if so, wouldn't they impact sustain? Is this something that can be added to a P-bass? :confused:

    Raconteurs Bass Tone

    Is it that simple? I seem to not get that boom, so I'm wondering if that's from a pedal or just cranking it up?

    Raconteurs Bass Tone

    New to the bass forum and first post. Interested in a bass tone that takes up a lot of sonic space given only one guitar. Jack Lawrence's tone is something I'd like to emulate in recordings. I've read that he uses either a Ric 4003 or a Gibson hollowbody into an Ampeg Classic SVT. I don't...
