Fender Bassman 100T - chapter 2

Seems perfect for his sound. Think they do all IEM, so probably using that killer post power tube DI.
Which you don't get in Silent Record mode, I discovered this morning. Still, the straight tube input section makes for a nice clean DI signal until I can lug a bass cab back into my "studio"
Looking at the manual again, it turns out I _should_ be getting the Post signal in Silent Record. Not sure what's going on there - I'll have to check my levels again and make sure I didn't have a massive herp duurrrr derp moment.
The 300, Super Bassman's DI is after the pre amp.
So.....
No it's not the other way around
There, less confusing??

Or p'raps it's the other way around
It's the other way around. The DI in the SB300 is out of the preamp, and in the 100T, it's off the output transformer.
Where did all that clutter of misinformation about the DI come from all of a sudden? You can edit and add an addendum to, or delete, your posts btw.
Problem is, as we see, many don't take the time to read all the posts.
Better now?
I can't delete, I'm afraid.
I think ppl can read between the posts.
As I say to my students, just because it is on the internet don't believe it is always true. Do your own research as well.
That said, everyone had the best intentions and forums are by nature discussion rooms where we feel comfortable sometimes speaking before thinking it all through. Who would have thought a year or so ago this thread would still be going?? Taking the 100T tonight to the gig instead of the SB300 - there is a great in house PA and sound engineer there and I want to hear that post power DI given a work out by a pro.

I replaced my power tubes. I had number 3s now I have number 7s. They're GTs but made in Russian Fed so probably rebranded Svetlanas?
Anyway I really like the sound. Much cleaner at high volumes but still distorts when I dig in.
Anybody that wants my 4 power tubes and 2 12AX7s, make me an offer by pm.

Their problem.
I know one thing fer sho'
I'd like one of these. Gotta talk my local into bringing one down so I can try it on for size & headroom.
Update: 100t / 410 neo seems like the perfect amp for mid to small size rig for
mid to small clubs. With this and an SVTcl/ 810, I have pretty much every bass covered.....

Fired it up at rehearsal tonight - 4 red LEDs in the auto-bias, but still functioning, albeit with masses of power tube distortion. Off to the shop tomorrow morning. Very happy I bought locally; if this had been a "grey import" I would be spewing right now! As it is, I have 5 years warranty on the amp and 90 days on the tubes, so I'm covered.
Just picked up a used Ibanez SR 1000 Prestige. Very nice bass and I love the way it plays and sounds but . . .
I'm getting a lot of unpleasant distortion on the high notes, especially on the G string. I dont know what strings are on there now but I think they are SS DRs (just a guess). Im going to change strings. Any other ideas?
And yes I am plugged into the padded input (#2). Lol
