    help me decide on a new head...

    Are you looking to upgrade for more power or getting a better head? You listed the 4x10 being 4 ohms, but it's only a 8 ohm cabinet. (unless you rewired it) So you are only getting around 100 watts out of the head you have. So if its power add another cab to get full power from your head...

    Is my bass rig enough?

    Not to highjack your thread but I now have your exact rig and I was told not to run the 2x10 by itself with the head. I could blow the speakers. Don't know whether this is true or not and have not tried it because I don't want to ruin the cab. I play with 2 guitar players and a heavy drummer...

    Need some advise.

    I guess I wasn't real clear. I think the GLX is ok, but I was thinking I could take it back and with 400 more get a neo, RBX 4x10 and the quality will be better. Also I think I can play a 4x10 and with support from the PA, be fine. Dont know if that is a better way to go. Does anyone know if...

    Need some advise.

    The 1x15 is loud enough for me to hear myself at rehearsal. Dont know if that will be the same noise level as being on stage. We play pretty loud during rehearsal. 2 guitar players and a pretty loud drummer. Our singer sings into the board with 2 monitors only. So if I can hear myself on stage...

    Need some advise.

    Ok a little background first. I play in a rock cover band, been together for about a month. I have been playing bass for about a year and 3 months. I got a Backline 600 for christmas and last weekend my wife bought me a GK 115 GLX. My band is currently looking at purchasing a decent PA, I...

    A Place To Try Out High End Basses In Ohio

    Not to go off topic on you, but i was in GC on Morse Rd last night, testing out a GK Head. A kid walked in and asked if he could play a Rick and this made my head snap around because i have never seen one in there. The look on the salesperson's face was priceless. :eek: He told the kid that...

    what to buy first

    sorry, the hartke 2000 is only $119. just the head. The 410xl is used for $200. So $320 for both. I love the cab and think it is worth it. Dont know about the head though!!

    what to buy first

    I saw a Hartke ha2000 today and played it through a 410 hartke cab(410xl I think) and it sounded good, Only 200 watts though and no Direct out. Only $120. Thinking about gettting it.

    what to buy first

    Hello everyone. I am looking for your expert opinions here. I have a fender rumble that I play through when I jam with a guitarist. We just added a drummer and are looking for a singer, so I need to get louder. I am looking at combo amps vs head/cab. I am leaning toward a used head and cab, but...

    The incredible John Myung

    I like DT, not a huge fan but I respect them. I posted on here when I saw them in columbus oh about 2 months ago. They were very good live. Myung is very good live. He played a bongo 6 and a 5 on a couple songs. I will admit that James was very rough on some songs, but on others he was ok. If...

    Bands that had really good first albums that couldn't outdo themselves?

    I will respectfully disagree. Are you saying that When dream and day unite is there best album ever? Or are you saying Images and Words is? Neither are their best album, IMO.

    Bands that had really good first albums that couldn't outdo themselves?

    I guess it depends on what you mean by out do themselves. Commerical success or growing as an artist? I think GnR's first was great, but they grew as musicians and by Illusion they were writting different stuff. Still good but different. I would say the same about Pearl Jam. I Loved thier...
