Okay, who's going to follow this?...

 

[J. Crawford]

I wouldnt call that a rig.. it makes us not worthy of calling our own rigs.

Allex, and his big rig..

 

[BurningSkies]

No pictures currently, but I'm running a Bergantino HT115, Schroeder 1212 with a LMII and Dingwall basses.

...and Dingwall basses.

You mean the Rasta bass we all GAS over.

You and Allex, I swear..

 

[experimental bassist]

Oh cool here's my rig...

...(sees Allex rig)...

...uh, never mind.


Anyway, subscribed b/c this thread has no choice but to be cool.

Yup. That's the one. Play it regularly.

I don't feel the need for huge amps because I move them myself and I also think that a lot of the newer gear is loud and low and good.

I don't believe there's such a thing as a 'reggae' rig...you can do well with whatever you have, within reason.

I'm sure that sounds awesome! I never thought MB could deliver a reggae tone.

I'll get a photo of my rig when my camera's found in my house.

i dig the 4 triads! damn.........

FWIW, at Toad's Place, the most common bass amp "requested" on reggae bands rider was the............Ampeg SVT with matching 8x10 cab. believe it or not.

No pictures, but two Eden WT-550s and a VT pedal, or an old SVT, with a Bergantino NV610 and an NV215 gives me enough volume, clarity and cushion through a largish club to effectively dominate the feelings of an audience.

They laugh, they cry, they go through all the emotions...

I believe it. Robbie Shakespear used an SVt in the early days. No problem with his tone.

Yeah, with good use of the VLE you get great reggae tones out of the MB stuff.

Good enough that Robbie Shakespeare is an endorser. Here's his rig:

MB can, all it takes is a BDDI or VTbass

i used to play a lot of nasty hard reggae/funk stuff, and my rig was a sansamp BDDI on the reggae preset (probably really close to the manual settings, i dont really remember though) into a LMII, into a boutique 2x12". couldent ask for a fatter reggae bass sound.

This is what I use for my reggae band... Powerhouse 212 driven by an M-Pulse 600. Like the Crazy Baldhead with the most lusted after bass on TB, I move my own gear.
