Was fooling around w/a friends Grind 5 this morning, thinking about taking to a gig tonight. Put it against my Warwick gamer and the difference in output was stunning. Amp at the same setting, both guitars dimed. I downloaded a decibel meter app and they both read 90. No way. Are the Grind...

Gang, Just finished a practice due to ungodly, but not constant, speaker buzz. I’m thinking loose wire/connection. Are these pretty simple to take apart & diagnose? Tks

It’s a G-K Neo 412 8 ohm cab

Appreciate the feedback, budget is lacking, enough so I may go back to BH550 or rumble 500 and hope it wii handle the guitars tube amps. The PF gave up the ghost with the volume @ 2 o’clock. Hoping another 500 won’t

Gang, my Ampeg PF-500 did that board thing; would like something in class D that will hang with the tube monsters I’m playing with, but have the features the PF did. Line in/phones for practice. Not married to the Ampeg tone; the Marks don’t seem to have the practice features, nor do the Peavey...

Is there a resource from Ampeg to tell when the amp was built from the serial number? I’m betting mine is in that window

J, you’re a total PF guy, you’ve had no issues when going above noon on the volume(s)? I think I’ve had this one for 5 years now

No clip light coming on either

It stinks. I get just to a point where I have a nice tone & volume to keep up with the guitars (vol just shy of 2 o’clock, gain @12), and I get the frying circuit smell. Maybe a bass boost pedal may help?

Rig is 3 years old, both head & cab

Ampeg brothers: During our last practice, my PF500 started to get that about to fry smell ,and started to cut out. I’m running with a GK NEO 410 cab, volume & gain each about 1:00 to be heard among the guitars. Fan was running and after a little time out, it seemed ok. I can’t imagine one...

Gang, I'm looking for a 5 string to round out the collection. Not going crazy with it, in fact more on the 'economical' side. I'm looking at a Squier VI (white one with block inlay maple fretboard), a MM Sub 5, or a Peavey Grind 5. I'd like your thoughts on them. Tks, S33

I have an issue with this one. Should the active button "pull"? I can just push this one. I notice no difference in the tone when it's pushed. Also, when I re-strung it, the AdjustANut is not attached to the neck? I don't see where it was glued. The Warwick manual is really no help. The...

Here's mine. I love this thing.

I had A Hondo II natural P-Bass, and a natural Peavey T20 through a Peavey TNT150.
