    Too many amps?

    I'm a fairly new player and I just bought a new Fender Bassman 100t w/ a 410 & 115. Then by total surprise my uncle gave me his 2006 orange ad200b. Being a green horn I don't know much about anything :smug: Should I keep both amps or sell the orange? Are they really that different? They're...

    Should I buy an Aguilar DB750?

    Currently using 50 watt and 100 watt tube heads. Worried that I'm reaching their thresholds as gigs grow. Only considering this bass amp because the Black Crowes Sven Pipien played one for 3 years on tour and I'm a black crowes freak almost to a fault. I like all tube amps a lot, but maybe I...

    Recommend a Flat for a hippie?

    I've got a '59 customshop P. Been playing for about a year and want to try flats after hearing the bassist for The Chris Robinson Brotherhood in LA. His name was "Muddy" and he got this groovey "thump" sound that was so in sync with the kick drum that it was hard to tell which was which. Best...

    New fender bassman pro series...in store demo!

    Tried out the new Fender basement ProSeries yesterday. All I can say is wow! This was super cool and the closest thing to true tube vintage stuff I've ever heard. Does anybody know what the overdrive switch does? I assume this is just some sort of PCBoard circuitry as opposed to actually...

    Vintage Park Tube Amp...anybody?

    Found this amp under a stack of bass gear at my local GC (see pics). GSM said it's been there forever. It's a Park, Model 2574, 50w tube, 1 x 12, built 5/10/79 (I was two years old...should have bought it then) :D This thing just sounds incredible, lots of sweet overdrive. My bass teacher...

    New Orange AD200B Dead On Arrival?

    Got a brand new Orange AD200B from GC over the weekend. I happened to check the back and noticed that one of the valves (tube) is dead. I a/b tested it with a used AD200B and the DOA one was much louder. So much so that in order to achieve the same db level from each I needed to set master on...

    Orange OBD115 vs. OBD410 vs. ????...going crazy, help!

    Just bought an Orange AD200B. Need some speakers to go with it. Currently playing through Aguilar 285JC (which actually doesn't sound half bad), but I want that "psychedelic foggy tone" of the 70's and Aggy ain't gonna do it. Play blues and rock cover bands (Black Crowes, The Band, Stones...
