    2 100W combo rumbles or 1 200W combo?

    I have a Rumble 100, I'm needing to be a little louder. I was looking at upgrading to the 200 or 500, but it got me curious about something. If I were to buy a second rumble 100 and play through both at the same time, would that have a bigger impact than selling the 100 and playing through only...

    Markbass Cab/Milkman Sound Head for Jazz

    Hello, I'm new to this site, but I have played bass for about 14 years. I'm not in any bands at the time and I've not played any gigs in many years. This being said, I've used combo amps just for fiddling around since I began playing bass. I'm looking to get a cabinet and head, and I'm wanting a...

    Ampeg V4B vs SVT Pro 3 vs ???

    I just purchased a V4B and a svt 212 cab. I had to return the V4B a couple of days ago, because it started making excessive hum and some strange noises after only a month of use. I use a boss os2 distortion pedal and a boss ch1 chorus. I plan on getting a different distortion pedal(s) (as the...

    Greeting from NZ

    Hi fellow muso's. I'm new to talkbass and forums in general! I found talkbass while searching for an info on my old Holden Wasp amp, made in Christchurch, NZ in the late 60's. This lead me to the Holden Wasp Club which lead me to here.

    Looking to buy new amp, but can't try in a store. Which one of these are better and why?

    So, I wanna get a new amp to replace my 30W combo. I'm mostly gonna do small venues. I play lots of genres, but mostly metal, funk or jazz. I use a few effects (incl. very high gain fuzz/dist). The amps I've seen in my range are: Ampeg BA115 V2 TC Electronic BG250-210 Peavey MAX115 MKII RedSub...

    Blackhawk Amplifiers

    Has anyone here heard about this builder: Home I just found out about his stuff, it all sounds awesome! It's mainly OD/dist/Fuzzes. He's got some interesting ones for bass, I'm thinking about getting this one: Uruk-Hai Deluxe (Valhalla V3 and Valkyrie V3) Looks sick and it has a blend on both...

    Double Bass Any love for cheap amplifiers?

    Many of the threads here make me itch to spend a lot of money for one or more of the latest and greatest amazing little amps. So far, I have managed to restrain myself from scratching by telling myself that I find nothing wrong with my Traynor SB112 "Small Block" amp that I bought new for...

    Peavey Max 112 bass combo opinions

    does anybody own one of these. I hear they can be a bit heavy but the new ones look cool with the shaped speaker cover. I'm happy with my little Markbass 150 but it is a bit cumbersome to carry around. what do you guys think.. they are supposed to be effective at ground hum I do hate me...

    Poll: What to do with Bass Amps You Don't Use?

    I've built up a stable of bass amps that I no longer use, plus some PA gear i.e. speakers, monitors and mixers. Everything is paid for and I'm not searching the couch cushions for rent money, so I don't need to sell anything. The issue is the space it takes up in my home. What would you do with...
