    Sort of a silly question about bass heads

    Hey, so I've just recently started playing guitar with some friends in a new band and I've run into bit of a conundrum. I'm about to get a Kasino bass head for next to nothing and I've got a 8ohm guitar cab that a friend is giving to me because he doesn't use it. Can I run the bass head through...

    PA head as a bass head?

    There's a 300 watt Sunn PA head on Craigslist for $150, $400 for that and a pair of Peavey SP-2's with Black Widow speakers... My bass sound is with a lot of pedals anyways, so I often don't rely on the clean tone of the amp... Would this be louder than my Hartke HA2500 (which would be 250 watts...

    Overloading an Amp?

    I play bass in a drum/bass sludge metal duo, and I use a lot of pedals, but especially a lot of overdrive, reverb and pitch shifter. I'm using a Hartke HA2500 head with one 4x10 right now (I know it's not good for sludge, but I'm making the best with what I have right now) and the overdrive...

    fuzz problem

    So I searched the forum and couldn't really find anything similar to my problem, so pardon me for starting a new thread. Basically, I play in a band with a guy who runs a pedal company with his brother-in-law, which is a dream come true, because I'm a pedal dork, and love being their test...

    is bigger always better?

    so my friend is selling a hartke 8x10 cabinet (he didn't specify what kind) and is trying to lob it off on me for $200. i've been looking for a bigger cabinet (right now i'm running a hartke vx 4x10) and am interested in maybe even using both cabinets to move a little bit more air. the...

    DIY pedalboard

    just finished this puppy the other day. i'm pretty proud of it! as you can see by my pedals i kinda make a living off being thrifty, and making my own pedalboard was much cheaper! the order goes output- loop station- tuner- harmonist- flange- chorus- boost- overdrive- input. thinking about...

    bass advice!

    so i already have an SX jazz rip off, and i love it, but today i fell in love with a silvertone p bass rip off for $89, which i found out through some internet research is called a silvertone revolver. i also found out that they are definitely cheap bass, but i'm a firm believer in the underdog...

    how to carry a three piece with just bass? (drums/vocals/bass)

    hey, so i've been working on this idea for a while, and the idea is starting a three piece grindcore band, with some sludgy parts in it of course. however, there would be no guitars. i know that bass driven bands aren't a new concept, and yes i am familiar with lightning bolt, i just want to...
