First used Bassamp

[adam_79]

Hi
Hi. I'm looking to buy a cheap used amp. I can get one locally for 60 euros: a Behringer Ultrabass BXL 450 or a Warwick BC20. Which would you choose?
It will mainly be used at home for practice or kids band practice with electronic drums.

I had great luck with my Warwick BC-10. My sister has it and it is still going strong. I even did small jazz gigs with it. I think the BC 20 is a good choice for a small practice amp.

Warwick BC20, I say that without hesitation

As a rule of thumb, avoid most Behringer products.

What are you running the electronic drums into? How many inputs are available on that unit. You may need to buy NO bass amp, depending on what you use with the electronic drums.

I tend to recommend the Fender Rumble for those peeps looking for a reasonable priced starter amp.

Thanks. I was a bit tempted by the Behringer because of the 10" Bugera speaker From Behringer, I only have the UMC404HD audio interface and I think it's great. However, following your advice, I will buy the Warwick with the 8" speaker.

@adam_79 I own one Behringer product. It is my first and will be my last. I join the chorus of those recommending you look elsewhere.

The UMC404HD is indeed very good, as are their synths (I have three). I wouldn't buy one of their amps, though.

You're wasting your time on inferior products. Make the first amp the best amp - sell your car(s) and buy one of these

Thanks for the offer. I have a 2004 Smart Forfour. Only 280,000 km on the clock. Diesel. I'm willing to trade. ))

Oh, sorry. I'm American. I just assume everybody else also has six SUVs and a truck.

My wife also has a car

I finally bought a Fender Rumble 60 at a very good price. My wife will definitely be happy... - the perfect Valentine's Day gift.

Enjoy!

Those older Rumbles are pretty heavy but they sound nice.

Bass player (3.5 years old) says that the amp is ok.
