SPECTOR® Club - Part 22

[cjmodulus]

Never tried any of the coated strings.
I keep my hands very clean and as dry as I can when playing so my strings tend to not go dead very fast if I'm careful.

+1

 

[rulyongo]

I hate to ask the obvious but...did you check your batteries?

Have you tried the alcohol soak method?

+1! I make sure that I don't even put on hand lotion until I'm done playing my bass. Plus, I usually don't keep a bass long enough to wear out strings! :roll eyes: Hoping that will be changing WHEN I receive both of my new Fortes.

Yep! Too late! :roll eyes: I bought a Fridge!!! Ampeg SVT-810e I see different bassist mixing speaker sizes but not the pro's so much. I'd love to hear a sound clip of your Mesa Powerhouse 1000! Plz One thing that I like about the "Fridge" SVT-810e is how you can split the cab electronically into 2 410's with 2 seperate amps if you wish to. So theoretically 2 bassist could play on the same cab? It should be arriving Friday!!! Then I'll test the limits of my PF-500.

Yeahhh!!! I also wonder how the PF-500 works with the 8x10... I used to play with an svt classic head and a SWR goliath sr. (6x10) it was beautiful!!! I regret selling that cab...

that was something that tempted me on the Ampeg box...I've heard several, and they all sounded good. I wish I had a "good" sound clip of a gig, but I don't. If I did, I'd definitely post one.

On my CRFM, i feel like the 40DC's are lacking oomph when soloed. They are upgraded to 18v with EMG BT preamp. When blended 50-50, it's awesome. I just get useless tones when soloed though. It could be my amp, however.
How is the BQC preamp?

Your bass, same everything, soloed live:

Well I just ordered myself a half stack. A GK 1001rb-II head and a gk Neo 410. The head was $640 and the Neo was $400. Can't wait!

Awesome! Congrats! That'll be mighty powerful!

 

[WoB bass]

Thanks a lot! I bet it will too

 

[WoB bass]

Thanks! I bet it will too

 

[WoB bass]

Oh and am I the only one here that uses GK's?

 

[Kitsapbass]

Oh and am I the only one here that uses GK's?

I use an 800RB. I also use a Yamaha PB1. And a Trace Elliot GP12x. I use way too much crap - but that's because I can never ever make up my mind about anything.

That is, besides that my Spector rocks.

 

[WoB bass]

Haha fair enough

Yeah! That's pretty cool. . Maybe someday I'll take it around the country, too!

 

[jarrod cunningham]

Yeah! That's pretty cool. . Maybe someday I'll take it around the country, too!

Or sell it when I have a pocket full of hundreds !

 

[iceboxbass]

No...there's several here. JPS is a GK user I believe. The rest of us...we've seen the light.

 

[Christian Waiau]

He's a genz user. I used to have almost their whole line hah....

 

[iceboxbass]

Wow! Really quiet on here tonight!

 

[worshiprocker]

I'm an ashdown/peavey guy at the moment... but an Ampeg head is coming. and I'm torn between cabs for the new head... but it will be 8x10
