    ID that bass - vintage G&L

    Apologies if there's a stickied thread for this purpose. Didn't see one. Here's the bass in question. I can clearly see the G&L logo on the headstock, but google searches are not turning up anything resembling this bass. Could it be a vintage G&L neck on a fender body?

    Boss MS3 - for guitar AND bass

    Apologies for bumping an old thread. Question for ms-3 owners: Could I use two different dirt pedals in the external loops and configure a stereo chain to send each loop to a different amp using the same built in effects after the loop?

    Darkglass A/O ultra VS. vintage ultra v2

    I just got the Vintage Ultra v2, and using direct output, if I barely touch the Cab Sim button, I get static and hiss, and more if I wiggle it. Faulty switch?

    Why are bass amps so ugly?

    Do it!!! Too many good looking bass rigs posted in this thread already. I want to see some ugly ones.

    I own a Rickenbacker 4003. If I get a Fender, should I get a P or a J?

    I owned a 4003 first, and then got a J to go with it. Very happy with the J over a P. Here's why: to me, having a neck and bridge pickup is invaluable. I can get 3 different, distinct sounds out of the bass, and everything in between. On any of these pickup settings, the J still sounds...

    Why are bass amps so ugly?

    Everyone's sharing photos of their rigs, and I see a lot of contradictions to my question. Here's my bass rig, which I'm not mad at looks-wise, but it doesn't make me drool like the sight of my guitar rig. Bass rig: Guitar rig (Bonus sexy looking vintage MM amp in the background - not mine):

    Wish list...you got 3.5k to blow, what kind of bass would you buy

    A 4-string Wal mk2 with a broken neck.

    Why are bass amps so ugly?

    I agree. That's a tasteful look for a modern solid state amp. Classic TC design. Programmable settings would be nice to have. If I ever want a light weight class D amp, I'd look into this. My opinion is that all class D bass amps sound roughly the same, the main difference being how the preamp...

    The thread title was obviously meant to be attention grabbing, but some people actually seem to be offended. Must be Mark Bass owners. ;)

    Why are bass amps so ugly?

    Yes, I admit it's not a totally fair comparison. Also, there's the Marshall JMP Superbass which looks just like the normal JMP. This was supposed to represent the amps I noticed walking into Guitar Center (minus the Hiwatt).

    Why are bass amps so ugly?

    Aesthetic is always a factor. If everything was function, we'd all be wearing Dickies jump suits and playing Steinberger basses.
