If you don't like the tone of your bass, you may be trying to over eq the sound from those P pickups. Perhaps changing the bass would heed better "Tone" I had a LMII with an SVT410HLF and loved it. Until I got my SVT III Pro...

I must admit that I do have an Acoustic B115 combo that I LOVE to use for recording :)

When two waves cross each other's path, even if they are identical, they won't just disappear. They'll set up standing waves where they are interfering provided they are identical. Beyond that they will continue on their path. There will be no sound wave cancellation. If one holds fast to...

Have a look at some used gear, your money will go further. That Acoustic rig is ok, but it is NOT the Famous acoustic name of the 70's, but instead the MF/GC house brand. I am in LA and used prices here may be lower than other places, but I see $700-800 rigs that are legit pro. Just be...

+1 for used As long as you carefully examine any used item before buying, you should be fine. I know I have found some nice gems out there. If you decide to go new, either of the heads you describe would be excellent choices. There may be others as well. It is worth playing as many...

This is why I love my BA500. Grabbed a 4 ohm 210 (in my case an ampeg BXT210M) lets me run 250 watts to the built in 210, and the other 250 to extension 210. Sounds great. Now that runs as my backup rig. Current one is: SVT III Pro into two ampeg pro neo 210HLFs. If I need that extra oomph...

Write in vote for Gibson Thunderbirds.

After reading the OP again Volume may not be the best solution. Your drummer's ear plugs plus his "Gun shot Headphones" could very well be blocking out your bass frequencies. Perhaps replacing his throne with a 115 or 210 would allow him to "Feel" your bass. Thus circumventing the...

+1 from my past experience in this forum, I didn't want to be the first point this out. Bonus +1 for responding to the OP and not to the trash! :cool:

SVT 2 > SVT 7 IMHE the lower the number the truer the sound. I usually bring a buddy with me to the lockout to grab gear, and then he loads my gear in and out. More than happy to fork over 2 beer tickets for that service! That being said, I am about to jump the shark. Recently...

+1 Good choice. Any one serious about playing will outgrow a behringer in 6 months to a year...If the equipment lasts that long int he first place :) Ebay is a good place to look for equipment, Craigslist, and let's not forget the best Music classifieds, our very own TB classifieds! have...

This is my Opinion, but it worked out great for me! Please remember that everyone is looking for something different in their tone, and experimentation is the only real way to get to the tone you truly desire. As a matter of fact, I like some of the rigs that are being knocked in this thread...

+1 if you aren't proud, how can others be proud?

EDIT: Not worth the negative energy OR Have some positive energy. I was trying to suggest some cost effective ideas that might lead in the right direction. The OP didn't seem comfortable with some of the responses. Why not eliminate a few easy things. Including the speaker cable as I agree...
