    WHAT is this bass?

    I'm in the market for my first five string after years of playing four. I'm not sure what kind of bass this is, but when I saw Dubtonic Kru live, i absolutely loved the bass player's tone (of course, his bass isn't the only thing controlling that, but it's a start...) Here's a clear picture...

    Vintage Traynor Bass Amp and Cabinet

    So for a long, long time I've been looking to upgrade my amp. Recently I've been offered a vintage Traynor bass amp/cabinet. It is an all tube head, and I do not have any experience with all tube heads. The cabinet is a 2x15, which I like the sounds of, although it is wired in series and...

    Quick Watts/ohm question

    Thanks. I ask because there is a 2x10 where someone replaced the speakers, so I was making sure. As for the wiring, it is a 4 ohm cab. but he also said he modified the crossover to allow full-range signal to reach the Eminence Delta 10s. What does this mean?

    Quick Watts/ohm question

    If each speaker in a 2x10 cab is 8 ohm rated at 200 watts each, does it make the entire cab a 400 watt 4 ohm cab, or a 200 watt 4 ohm cab?

    Gaillen-Krueger Amp;4x10

    thanks everyone sounds like the 700RB ll is the way to go? so then GK makes a 700 RB ll with 210RBH combo, 320 watts. So would it be better to get this combo and add an extension if i need it, or get the 700RB-ll and a seperate cabinet?

    Gaillen-Krueger Amp;4x10

    I've been in need of a new bass amp for a while now, and i've been looking locally for one. i've found a guy who is selling a 300 watt GK Backline 600 with 1 or 2 GK 4x10 cabinets at a decent price. So the question: Is GK a reliable company? this gear is said to be less than 1 year old.

    Double Bass When bowing the E string I bump my right leg

    hold the neck of you bass in your hand like you normally would. now lift it up and keep the neck and your left hand right where they are, but bring the endpin foward. in the end you will be making your bass at a more diagonal angle to you---but not that extreme at all, just enough so that when...

    Double Bass Amp for Jazz

    So i'm of the kind who play both electric and upright bass, and on the upright i play classical and jazz and for the jazz i'm in need of amplification. So i'm wondering if i can use my electric bass' practice amp or even my ashdown 4x10 to amplify my upright. it does have a pickup.

    What's the best compliment you've ever received as a bass player?

    one time at band practice we were taking a break and the singer/guitar player's dad is who is a gigging bassist and a very talented musician said "you guys are sounding good and tight..." *3 seconds later* "and you have a kick a$$ bass player."
