    Perhaps I have caused a problem. GK issue.

    GK Fusion 800 into a first gen GK 2x12 neo. Saturday I was practicing in my studio. Low enough volume to not bother my wife upstairs. I got called upstairs, unplugged the bass and went upstairs. Had to leave the house and take care of stuff. Returned 36 hours later. Went downstairs to resume...

    V,V,T,T and a three way switch.........Why?

    The bass in question is a Samick Saturn bass. P and J pickups. Was active when new, now passive. Found it in a pawn shop, working. When it was new, I believe it was wired V,V, bass, treble. My question is this, the volume, volume, tone, tone setup allows for the choice of pickup sound sent to...

    Genz-Benz Neo-Pak 3.5 issues

    As the title says, my Neo-Pak 3.5 now has an issue. Backstory is this, I bought it about 5 years ago. Always played into the Genz-Benz 2x12 neo. It has seen minimal use since I have had it. I have turned on about 10 times. The tube is a new Groove Tube 12ax7 and has less than 2 hours on it. The...

    NBD Fernandes Atlas

    Thanks to Dr. Cheese posting a video of his Atlas, I began a search for one. I wanted a Japanese one in a non common color. Ebay to the rescue. I have wanted a Sage green bass for some time, now I have both in one bass. Pretty good bass, sounds like a Stingray clone should. (Edit--9lbs 7oz. I...

    Very Interesting NBD

    So I stop at the Local " Buy here-Sell here" store. All kinds of stuff on the wall. "Can I see the white Sub bass, please?" "Sure!" I play it. It has ultra low output, a hollow sound, and a buzz, a hum and a Ba.ba,ba,ba,ba when plugged in. It played well enough for me to keep trying to like it...

    Speaker ID and replacement ideas

    To the Talkbass faithful, I need some help. I bought an older ADA cabinet setup from Rapisme, and he had purchased it from Masterbass, so I know it has been taken care of. I have been using it as a backline in the studio I share with 3 other bands. The amps that are there to use include a...

    NBD Peavey Fury!

    Another deal I just couldn't pass up.

    Spector question

    What makes a Spector sound like a Spector? Really, it's an honest question. I was watching a show last night and the bassist was playing a Fender Jazz which, while sounding really good, was no match for the Spector he played later. The Spector sounded thunderous, ringing like an angry piano...

    NBD! Asbury (WHAT?) content

    I stopped in at my friends " Buy here-pay here" store. He had an Asbury bass for medium pittance, and I bought it. I am a sucker for a matching headstock. Nice bass after a bit of cleaning and long overdue maintinance. I assume it was made in Korea, as was my Hohner, and as you can see, the neck...

    90's Genz Benz 4x10 questions

    I was a GC the other day and came apon this Genz-Benz 4x10. Gray rat fur starting to peel off, but for $99, I just had to buy it. It seems to be a very mid-range focused cabinet, not boomy at all. I did a bunch of searches, both here and on google, but nothing much came up. I gigged it this...

    GK 2x10 question

    Long story short. G-K 1001RB first generation. 540 watts at 4 ohm, 350ish at 8 ohm. Not being run anywhere near max volume. I bought it used from a pawn shop. It seemed to be working well and was a fair price, so I bought it. It had one original driver and one eminence Delta. It sounds fine...

    Trace Elliot question

    I have a Trace Elliot 1048H with the red strips. Bought it used. It sounded good at loud pawnshop in store levels. Played it once at loud jam session levels and now one driver sounds fuzzy.

    Ampeg fliptop questions

    The Ampeg B-15n and the Ampeg B-15s. I understand that the S is for solid state rectifier and the cabinet of the S is bigger, but is that all that is different? I did a few searches here and on Google, but I really didn't find too many answers. Thanks, Ken R

    Hmmmm..........

    I never saw a P bass like this before. It is a Squire standard, Precision bass. Funny thing though, it has 2 jazz pickups. Not a split pickup to be found. Weird. Sounds really good though. Anyone seen these before? Ken R

    All pick players

    I have never used a pick before. I decieded to try it. I came away unimpressed. Too clicky for me. Then someone gave me a felt pick. Compressed felt. Kinda neat. I brought it to the jam session and I thought it sounded pretty good. Then both guitarists told me that they LOVED the new...

    Question for the masses

    I tried a search and pretty much came up empty. So........ If 2-10" are about equal to 1-15" in speaker area, then 4-10" are about equal to 2x15" and 8x10 = 4x15. Right? Why is the box so much smaller on the 2x10 and the 4x10? I thought the box needed to be a certain size to move enough...
