    Bass Through Guitar Amps

    Well. I play bass through a vintage guitar tube amplifier and two Ampeg bass-cabs. The amp is a '74 Sound City L(ead) 120, which my father used for guitar. The thing is, that is tighter than a lot of bass-tube-amps, so it controls a 15" like a dream, if you're looking for the tight sound. It...

    Best Amp for a Rickenbacker

    I'm running my Rick 4003 through a Sound City L 120 from '74 and a 4x8 Ampeg and a 1x15 Ampeg with the purpose of getting a Deep Purple-/BTO-ish sound. It's actually an old guitar-amp and two bass cabs, but it does a great job. I'd go with an Ampeg SVT, V4 or SVT-CL or a Marshall from the JMP-...

    Official Ampeg Club!: Part II

    Have an Ampeg SVT-48HE (4x8) and a SVT-15EN... And a Sound City 120L. Unfortunately I haven't had the money to buy me a SVT-CL or a used V4-BH yet. I hope I'm qualified for a number anyways? Link Removed

    The Official Fender Precision Bass Club

    My 2007 Fender (MIM) Standard Precision Bass. It's a lovely bass even though it's "just" a cheap Mexican P-bass. Can I get a number? :) Link Removed

    Pick players: where do you strum?

    It definitely depends on the bass, I'm playing. When playing my Rickenbacker 4003, I usually strum between the neck-PU and the neck to get both presence and bass. On my Precision bass I strum almost above the pick-up to get the special mid-tone from a P-bass.

    The Rickenbacker Club! Part trees!

    This is my 4003. It's made in Week 3, 2009 - I bought it in March. Can I get a number too? Link Removed Sorry 'bout the bad picture. I just found out that it was my only uploaded photo of the Rickenbacker.

    would u move from 1x15 to 4x10?

    Ampeg 410HLF or 410HE. I have a stack with a 4x8 Ampeg and a 1x15 Ampeg and a 120W full-tube Sound City as the amp. It kicks ass! I tried the Ashdown ABM 410 yesterday and it actually dissapointed me. I tried it with one of Asdhowns heads and a Fender Jazz. It was like the sound was in that cab...

    Rick, is it fake?

    I've also seen that ES-S on the website. The seller says, it's from the 70's and the exact same thing as a Ric 4003. The 4003 came in 1979, so I don't believe that, as it's very unlikely, but that might just be the seller, who doesn't know anyting about Rickenbacker. Besides that I've never...

    Dumb question about P v J v PJ

    The American Deluxe Precision has a dual-coil humbucker instead of the single-coil Jazz PU. I've never tried an American Deluxe Precision, but I've heard that it should be an excellent all-round bass. It also has a three-band active EQ. I think, the Jazz Bass PU is playing at a lower volume...

    The Vintage Bass Club

    I have a 1965 Klira 661 "Texas". My father bought it used for 35 Danish Kroner (6-7$) back in about 1975. He plays guitar and not bass, so I got it from him a couple of years ago. It sounds a bit like a Höfner 500, but this bass has only four equalize-settings: B-, T+ B-, T+ B+ and T-. Link...
