    NBD. 2005 Gibson SG Bass

    Hi folks, Arrived today, great feeling bass, I’m actually really enjoying the short scale being primarily a guitar player. It’s a surprisingly versatile sounding bass, from the typical “mudbucker” sounds to near Jazz bass tones. I’m very happy with it. Might not be my last short scale bass I’m...

    NAD. Ampeg SVT 3 Pro.

    Yep. When I first plugged it in the EQ was off. Pushed the little activate button and there it was. Much more power. Bought a little smile to my face…..

    NAD. Ampeg SVT 3 Pro.

    I think part of the problem is it actually “only” makes 275 watts with an 8 ohm load. I’d be interested to hear it with a 4 ohm cab at the full 450 watts. That coupled with the master and gain working opposite to what you would normally think, there’s also a volume slider on the end of the EQ...

    NAD. Ampeg SVT 3 Pro.

    Hi folks, I just picked this one up. I was running a Hartke HA3500 into my Ampeg 4x10 cab but saw this pop up at a local shop and grabbed it. Did some research on the head prior to picking it up and found out about its preferences for having the master volume dimed and using the gain as a...

    Hollowbody Bass Club!

    Hi B-Mac, it's actually a Japanese Greco SAB-120. Long scale. Its a nice sit down bass, suffers from pretty bad neck dive standing up. Luckily I don't stand to play anymore. Cheers, Scott.

    Hartke HA3500 w Ampeg SVT 410

    Not at all mate, I appreciate the feedback on your experiences. Look, Im tipping this wont be the last bass rig I buy anyway... But its nice to hear from someone whos been a bit further down the road than me. :thumbsup: I might even buy a 4 Ohm cab and see what that does for it. Cheers, Scott.

    Hartke HA3500 w Ampeg SVT 410

    Hi mate. Seeing that I’m new to this, by full range do you mean something with a 15” and a tweeter? I do believe the 8 ohm cab might be holding it back a bit, since it’s only putting out 240 watt with that. I actually thought Ampeg SVT cabs were pretty high quality stuff. I was thinking of...

    Hartke HA3500 w Ampeg SVT 410

    Gday folks, I just picked up these 2 for a really good price. Bought seperately but I reckon they pair up nicely. It’s a big improvement on my tired old Hartke B90 combo. The Ampeg had the grill frame pushed in when I got it, I pulled it out and found the frame was broken top and bottom, so...

    NBD. Greco SAB-120 (EB-2)

    Hi mate, yeah when I first found out it was full scale I nearly didn’t buy it, but I decided to go look at it based purely on cool factor. When I got there and had it in my hand it was sold. It’s in excellent condition, and played really well. And as mentioned in the previous post it plays...

    NBD. Greco SAB-120 (EB-2)

    Hi mate, Balances great on my leg whilst sitting down, which is how it will be used in my possession anyway. Seems to be made for it. On a strap standing up is another matter. I can use my right forearm to hold it in place put I wouldn’t want to be doing a long gig with it. Cheers, Scott.

    NBD. Greco SAB-120 (EB-2)

    Hi mate. Just went and measured it. Definitely 34”. 👍 Had a bit of a Semi-Hollow evening. Laid down some bass through the loop pedal with the Greco and played some guitar over it with the Tokai. Sounded sweet and was great fun! Cheers, Scott.

    NBD. Greco SAB-120 (EB-2)

    Hi mate, It’s bassier and has a softer sound than my P-Bass, but not excessively so. Yes 34” scale. Cheers, Scott.

    Gday folks, Well this is my second NBD in a week. Not bad for a guitar player eh?…. I’ve been in the lookout for a nice semi hollow bass for a while now, this one popped up locally last night, so I jumped on it. Nice thick neck, Good solid feeling bass, not like some of the recent MIC semi...

    Introducing myself…

    Gday Folks. New member here, I’m from Victoria Australia. I’m a guitar player in my 50’s, but recently traded a Tele for a very nice Fender AO 50’s Precision. Initially my thinking was to get a nice bass so I can lay down some bass lines to jam over with my guitars. I can’t put this thing...
