Supro Blues King 12 is what I used with my Ibanez's. 15 watts all tube with foot switchable boost and gain. Very easy to control volume and overdrive. For me it was a significant change up from Fenders. Much lighter, and better tone. YMMV

Mine was a custom ordered Zon. I had a Legacy that was like a museum piece it was so beautiful. Decided to add a Sonus. Ordered it specifically with an exhibition grade top. When it arrived I was stunned how horribly dull it was. It looked like a $300 bass, not a $4000 bass. It sounded good...

Mine is bad enough I had to stop anything but a low volume acoustic gig or a small jazz gig. Even then I'm having to be careful that I stay away from any PA's. Mine was induced with a bad prescription drug reaction. Really ironic since I was always the nerd with ear plugs in, even in the 80's...

Curious what the dimensions are? Overall length and width at lower.

Picked up guitar myself. Having a blast learning to play and appreciating how it informs my bass playing. I'm also going to start writing some basic tunes. And I'm going try singing outside the shower. New challenges make the music fresh again. And hope I get a couple of more weeks of work...

We were in the middle of rehearsal today when the alert went out that all bars and restaurants are being closed here in the mountains of Colorado, so no gig on Sunday. Phew. Really didn't want to do it, but the bar owner was insisting we show and if we didn't we had to pay someone else to do...

Got the 17 buck bass.. and 17 buck strat style guitar, neither has a headstock label. Shipping from NJ. Looking forward to (finally) having a bass and guitar I can paint, sticker, carve, tattoo, stripe.. BUT.. most importantly, leave out so those people, like my brother in law, who never...

I used this with both bass guitar and upright. Sounded significantly better with the upright then the super expensive Phil Jones I had briefly. I'm playing tiny venues these days just out to the pa and don't need a big amp anymore. This is in mint condition with hardly any use. Comes with...

This Is a made in America Zon Sonus 5 with the standard Bart pups and graphite neck. It has some abuse though and the neck is cracked along finger board. The finish has cracked around the neck as well. And there is one knob missing. I bought it this way so I had the familiar Zon Sonus 5 when I...

Timely post, we set up last night at work to check out some new gear. We are also rehearsing next week. We have a large space where we can do it without interfering with operations. And coincidentally the last few paying gigs have been in the lobby playing during our holiday rush. It's been a...

AC Power It's not a portable unit. Weighs 33 lbs. 250watts. Super Flightcase (BG-300) 250W of Compact Power Like its smaller brother the BG-150, this amp has amazing power and performance to weight ratio. Not only it has great acoustic output to play loud, but the bass is incredibly rich and...
