Which was SLM? The BA first series or second? Or both? I liked the originals, whoever made them. If the second series BAs were not LOUD, then my apologies to LOUD for my assuming their responsibility for the creation of the aforementioned amp second series. However, any parent company is...

I think I can actually understand this a little. A very little, but enough that it makes sense. It's now clear to me that this has actual advantages. It's not just a visual gimmick. Thanks for the help. Last question on this then - I promised my wife I'm done buying more amps and basses. I...

You know you found something great, that's why you put it here. You wanted us to tell you if it's a bad deal, or wrong, or confirm it really is something great. It is, if you can afford it get it now and why isn't it in the boot of your car already? Also, since you're there, it's there - get...

Huh. Ok. I kinda get it, kinda not really but I'm willing to accept it as fact. The Amp output is 300W going to each speaker regardless of quantity. Be it 8 or 16, or even just 1? My little mind said it's 300W/# of speakers. Not so? Then the amperage going out increases and the impedance...

The current 810 cabs from Ampeg, including mine, are 800W capable. But get driven by 300W? And the same 300W would drive twice the quantity better? I'm so confused. Inspired but confused.

So I'd actually get more volume? Where's my logic off? And again I don't know much about the how and why of amps and electrical stuff so I won't be insulted by very basic amp speak. My mind says 8 speakers powered by 300W becomes less by becoming 16 speakers at the same 300W. But it becomes...

In particular I have a SVT Classic and matching 8x10 fridge and several people tell me I can run 2 of the same cabs off this. I found that was how Ampeg originally meant for the large stage stups to be done with the SVTs back in the day. No one really does that from what I've seen. It would...

I loved the "Yampeg" comment. My new nickname if all goes well. Or I guess it could be the negative nickname if it's another "dark age" for a music manufacturer name plate as ownership and management changes hands. Again. Fender and Gibson fans can definitely relate here. I live near the...

This might be a question outside of my finances to relate to, but here goes anyways... I play what I buy, I buy the best I can afford but that means there are limits. I used to buy pawn shop and used items of interest. Those were all fair game to change and learn my limited guitar wrenching...

What I was gonna say... Love the WWJamersonD line too. The private seller situation be it garage/estate/church sale or just a person to person transaction involves risk to both sides. It could have a problem they want to have go away, it could be awesome and a prize to brag on. Don' no...

I've read what's said here and all sides are right. This really depends on what this is going to be for and who it's being given to. I'll assume here - Christmas present and grandson has expressed interest in taking up the bass? For $109 for a starter kit, ok. It's a complete starter kit...

Every bass needed or benefited from different things individually and that's a lot to itemize here. Best single mod for MY sound on any bass - LaBella flats of various gauges and type

Every bass player and every bass are different and unique. Though certain sounds and "feel" are fairly predictable and true to any model of bass, occasionally some are just that little bit different. Sometimes they are your personal version of something amazing and become keepers for life...
