I'm looking for someone to help me learn the bass lines for the Greyboy Allstars song Soul Dream of West Coast Boogaloo album. Happy to pay. Just need someone to break it down into simpler chucks, go slow. Do it on video. I've never done this type of learning before but willing to give it a...

I turned my Rumble 200 combo into just a 115 cab after the amp died. Just removed the amp and added a 1/4” jack. Light weight. Sounds great. Boom! My 500 combo fits perfectly on top. You could probably find a dead 200 for less than $100. Maybe even free. The rumble amps are unfixable…...

That must have been really fun!! What a great era!!

It's probably been about 6 months since our last gig. My band Lowfires has been focused on getting ready for a studio session coming up in March. We're going to start recording a new album. Saturday night we played Turn Turn Turn in NE Portland. It's a great rock club/bar. It was super fun...

Thank you!!! I really appreciate the help.

Serial number is DWCD850170 Any idea what year it was made and if that year is any good? Thanks!

Do you prefer the Darkglass over the GK? Just curious. Thanks!

IMO the BDDI does a lot of compression. I have a Keeley Bassist in front of it but my ratio is super low <3:1 and my threshold is super high. I"m finding it sounds better without it altogether when playing live. Recording or the signal to the front of house is quite different.

My Band Lowfires played Dante's tonight. It is legit rock club in Portland, Oregon. Some pretty big names have played there. Big Star, Wire, Dead Moon and a ton more. It's the biggest stage we've played. Awesome sound guy and sweet sound system. Very much appreciated. Yike...my bass amp...

That's a full on MCA Beastie Boys set up with the 800RB and the 3620. I bet it sounds amazing!!

My band Lowfires played a new club to us, the Hawthorne Hideaway in Portland, Or tonight. Super fun. The venue had a big'ish stage with a decent sound system and a sound guy which was a super nice luxury for us. No FOH support for bass. Sound guy said to just turn it up. I was fine with...

Super awesome gig tonight with my band Lowfires at the Shanghai Tunnel with Merwulf and Galacticnorcinerator. The two other bands crushed. Super big fan of Merwulf. Check out their new album. It's awesome. Their bass player uses lots of great distortion with some really fun songs. Sound...

Was supposed to be a 2 show night. 1st gig at the Snug was canceled due to plumbing issues. I showed up and the place was flooded. Bummer. 2nd gig was a private party. Super fun. Better than normal sound system with an actual sound guy (not the norm for the dive bars we play). Super fun! A...

This is what I try and do...possibly unorthodox... I get my pre amp (bddi v2) eq'd to sound as good as possible into my computer/DAW/Logic without any processing before gig/rehearsal. I record it, listen back, adjust preamp and record again until it sounds good. Listening when not playing is...

I think this is awesome. I play a Fender Rumble 500 and there is definately somehting missing in the mid range. It'll be fun to try this.

I love it. I was hoping they’d bring back some older tech. Tired of everything being class D. Mix it up a bit. I still buy vinyl. Would have been fun to see a rereleased the 800rb. I bet these new RB’s are going to sound sweet. Nice job GK!!!

My band Lowfires played the Firk'n Tavern in Portland, OR last night. Super fun. That place always has a great crowd. We went on last which is rough. The hollow stage tortured me. I didn't bring anything to decouple. Last time I do that. Just a boomy mess even with HPF. Oh well. I'm...

My band Lowfires played the Lay Low tonight in Portland, OR. Super fun dive bar. A great bill with the Muscle Cats and The Crawlers. The rig is getting smaller and simpler. 2009 Fender American Standard Pbass (rounds) > Boss TU3 > Broughton HPF (off, room wasnt' boomy) > Keely Bassist...

My 10 year old Rumble 200 finally crapped out. Amp is cutting in out.. mostly out. Guess it's probably best to just trash the amp and turn it into a 15" cab for my 500. What do you think? It cost $100 to have someone look at it let alone fix it. It's only worth $200+.

Sweet mini stand! I'm all about a mini stands that fits in a gig bag. I have an ultimate that's great but when it dies this looks perfect. I love my bigger Hercules auto grip stand. Only wish I bought it sooner. It's by far the safest storage I've found. Just too big to haul to gigs.

Super fun gig tonight in Portland @ Kelly's Olympian! A legit rock club with a great sound system and a even cooler sound guy. This is not what we get regularly. Much appreciated! The bill had 3 other sweet bands... Merwulf https://www.instagram.com/merwulf.band/ was particularly awesome...

I use Broughton HPF first in my chain (after tuner). The idea is that by reducing some of the low low end the compressor doesn't have to work so hard and can focus on more important freqs. The BDDIv2 is last and goes into my amp input. The rooms I play are usually boomy and I'm usually forced...

Maybe I'm not entirely sure what "practice" amp means in this context... Practice amp with a band? i.e. rehearsal? Practice amp for at home, solo, woodshedding? With Band/rehearsal...I use a regular gigging rig or some variation (smaller scale of it). You play like you practice. For home...

I’d much rather use my laptop with Logic, focusrite interface, KRK monitors or headphones. For me it makes it super easy to do the work. Amp is nice for quick and easy playing but if I need to learn something or work on something the computer works better for me.

Played the No Fun Bar and it was… super fun. My Standard American Precision bass (flats) signal went through Boss TU3 > Broughton HPF > Keeley Bassist compressor > Boss ODB3 > Bass Big Muff > BDDIv2 into the Rumble 500. Tried a portable stool to get the amp off the hollow stage floor. It’s...

I’m new to the BDDIv2. Only had it a few months. Right now it’s between 10 & 11 o’clock. The challenge I’m having is it’s being tasked to two different jobs. 1. Live sound in front of my amp 2. Direct for either PA or most often to the DAW that’s recording all rehearsal. I need both to...

This is gross. It’s like an arms race. mic drop. I’m out. Going direct. Seriously. It’s too much.

Which set up did you enjoy more?

Sunday Night - Saint Patrick's Day Used the headliners (Motrik) bass amp. The Ampeg V4B + 212av. I've been eyeing this rig for a while. The venue was a dive bar called Turn! Turn! Turn! in Portland, Oregon. It's a great rock club. Minimal PA - Just vox and kick. The room holds 150 maybe, I...

Sorry to bring this old thread back to life but I'd love to get thoughts on LPF in regards to taming harsh hi end from fuzz and drive that goes out the direct signal. My amp does a fine job cutting them out. It sounds good live but the direct signal is harsh. I don't use a pre amp... the OP...

Sounds awesome. Nice! I love that song. Bass sounds awesome.

Had a fun jam in my kitchen a few months ago. Got play both my Rumble and Ampeg Rigs Rumble 500 + 112 Cab Ampeg Micro VR with 2x210av cabs Played separately. Super fun..

Thanks G-Dog! I appreciate your opinion. I agree the difference is probably too small for the effort but having matching 10's all the way around does make me happy. Maybe if I find a cheap one on Craigslist I'll give it try. I think the 210 also gets it another 4 inches higher which doesn't...

Hi Rumblers! Happy Friday. Curious about something. I have the Rumble V3 500c I pair with the V3 112 Cab. It's pretty sweet. Wondering if the V3 210 cab will provide any addition benefits. The V3 210 is 350 watts (continuous) and V3 112 is 250 Watts (Continuous) both at 8 ohms. Has anyone...

If I were starting from scratch I'd head up to the Bass Shop in Seattle and try everything until something spoke to me. The Bass Shop | Selected Used and Vintage Bass Guitars This quest would include a priority on sound and feel but have a second priority for weight and portability. If weight...

I've played the R200c with the V3 112 xtra cab with a fairly loud rock band and it works fine. I've been curious for years about how much louder the 500c is. I got one about a month ago that I pair with the 112. Honestly, I can't really tell the difference between the 200/500. They're both...

We’re a pretty loud band. I have gotten away with just the 200 before. It’s a little easier load in by itself too. But adding the 112 does get the 200 up closer to my ears and adds bigger/fuller sound. I love it!!
