I have a BSE410Hlf and I would like to test the speakers in it.Can you pull them from the cab and use an ohm meter on them and would a 4 ohm speaker ohm out at 4 ohms between the + and - I am only getting 3.6 ohms out of the cab with speaker wired in parallel

I have a Ampeg SVT3PRO that I bought used,I took it to a authorized tech and had it checked out.He found a wrong tube and fixed it then told me he tested it out in his studio and it worked and sounded great.When I hook it up and try to use it with my BSE410hlf it clips,cuts out almost...

I recently purchased a new Fender bass from GC and they offered 36 mo pro coverage for $139,is it worth it?

Well I finally got to pick up my new bass today! GC told me when I ordered it I would be brand new in a Fender box,I was a little disappointed that it wasn't since this is my first new bass.The manager said he would order me in a new one from Fender but sent me home with this one to mess with...

What does the string through feature do for the sound/tone of your bass?

So I went to GC to look at P-basses,they have a 20% coupon so was looking into that Honeyburst Nitro USA with the coupon its $720.Well they where really busy so I sat down with an AM STD P and really liked it the price tag said $1099 but with the 20% off it would be $880.I wonder what kind of...

So looking at P-bass necks on Fenders website and the USA Precision neck says slim modern c profile that's on the rosewood fb.On the maple one it says the same thing,so is this the slim c neck that they use on the American Special and on the Nitro Series Honeyburst P-bass that guitar center sells?

I found this at a local Antique store,it seemed like a nice bass.Asking price was $179.Can anybody tell me what it is?

I have seen a picture of Darth Vader playing what looks like a Fender Jazz.Does any of you know where a guy might find a t-shirt with that on it? I did a google search and found the pic but no shirts! My instructor is a Star Wars fan and loves,lives Bass so I thought it would be a good gift. any...

I looked at one of these awhile ago and really liked it but when I went back to Gc hoping to buy it both of them were gone.I have been checking frequently for them to have one,didn't really want to order one because they had two when I looked at them and one felt great,the other kinda meh.Now I...

I am replacing the pick-ups in my Fender Mexi P-bass with Quarter Pounders and not sure what pots to put in. I went to the local guitar shop and the guy said he would go with 500k,I haven't taken the bass apart because I want to be ready with everything.Looking at Seymour Duncans site they show...

Ok I am going to look at a used svt3pro tonight,here is what I was told about it.(Good condition,there may be a tube blown out but still sounds great).I am new at this stuff is there anything I should be aware of or look for on this thing? Will check back in a little while its nap time :)

I would like to test this 4ohm cab before I drop more coin on a head to power it.So before I do this just want to make sure I am not making a mistake.It is a Ampeg BSE410HLF 4ohm if I unhook 2 speakers at a time then it would be 8ohms right? Keep in mind I just want to make sure the speakers are...

Ok so I posted the other day that I bought a BA210v2 and the ran across a great deal on a BSE410hlf. I still haven't decided whether I am keeping the BA but looking for a head for this cab.I found a SVT3Pro for $250 guy says it sounds fine but may need a tube.I could do this or get a new PF500.I...

So I went in to GC today and picked up one of the new Ampeg BA210V2's with a 15% off coupon so it was a pretty good deal.Earlier in the day I was texting back and forth with someone selling a Ampeg BSE410HLF on CL for cheap $125.I went into GC with the intent of looking at the BA or a head to...

What exactly does this mean? One of the music stores has this on there website in the amp section,are they returns or are they ones that have been reconditioned? What I am looking at is Ampeg PF500

So if the SVT210AV is rated at 200 watts @8ohms what if you ran 2 of them? Reason I ask is I am looking at the mini stack but may want more power later.Could I use say a 500 watt head with 2 of these cabs?

So what happens when you use an instrument cable between a head and cab? I put an output jack in my Ba115 head so I could use a different cab but I was stupid and plugged in a instrument cable,blew the fuse and now it blows fuses everytime I turn it on,hooked to speaker or not.Is it now trash?

I am going to go look at this amp combo with a 10,whats the consensus on these? At this point I am learning and playing at home.I am almost leary of buying used again but new is so expensive!

My Ampeg Ba115 was sounding crappy so I took it to a shop,they told me both speakers are blown.Now I am trying to decide whether it's worth fixing.Were can I find replacements reasonable and should I put a crossover in it,it has some sort of cap inline on one of the wires to the tweet.Thanks in...

I am piecing together a p bass with a Squire body and fender jazz neck,in need of a better pickguard than the Squire.I purchased one from the classifieds only for it not to fit.Am I going to have to buy one specifically for a Squire or will Fender fit? I really don't want to keep buying and...

I am getting ready to replace the scratchy pots in my Fender Mexi Jazz and figured I would go w ahead and change all three and the jack with Cts and Switchcraft,also new wire.Question is what type of wire do I need and where do I get it? All of the guitar stores around here that I've checked...
