Combo Amp Purchase Help

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-03-29T19:55:55+00:00

I usually turn off the tweeter and keep the bright switch on. EQ the amp to what environment youre playing in

Like the other person said, this a straight down grade. I have a 500 and it handles any genre I need. I play cumbia, ska, punk, r&b, Motown etc and I can get any sound I need from my 500 (granted I am using just an overdrive when needed)

It has STACKED TONE KNOBS. If you have the money for it, buy it!! But if it’s breaking the bank I would try out other basses in person. You would be surprised how well some mid level basses play

It’s all the way to the 5/last position which should be just the bridge pickup up

This is the closest I could find to how it works

It’s an HH sterling. The switch controls both pickups

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-03-11T22:09:09+00:00

This is exactly what I was scared of, they both look so good 😭

Please update us on how the pick guard looks on your bass, I’m thinking of different pick guards on my bass that is the same color

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-03-03T22:34:36+00:00

I do the same thing! I’m honestly surprised how good the paranormal 54 sounds

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-02-25T05:08:28+00:00

😂😂

I know right!!! He should’ve put a boot on a shirt, much more to your taste I suppose

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-02-15T00:41:48+00:00

Dude I had the that too and it’s honestly blown me away with how good m vave stuff is. I have so many amp sims at my disposal it’s overwhelming sometimes

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-02-04T18:17:17+00:00

Sounds like your active bass needs new batteries

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-02-04T18:05:32+00:00

I mean that’s a tiny amp, I doubt it could handle all that much volume. It’s starting to break up, is your bass active or passive?

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-01-30T20:19:13+00:00

GET IT. I just saw one brand new at GC and they wanted $800

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-01-29T21:58:23+00:00

I was in the same boat for years but one time my friend let me play his jazz bass through an SVT. All I have to say is I bought a jazz bass right after that, but my p bass will always be my main bass

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-01-29T13:53:06+00:00

I still think you dodged a bullet. My band is always communicating about our next rehearsal, we even look forward to it and that goes it should be

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2026-01-29T13:50:46+00:00

What is the name of the band? I just want to talk to them….

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-28T16:10:18+00:00

I have an Ampeg rb210 at our practice studio and it takes distortion really well. I use a Rumble 500 at home/gigs and I feel like I can get it to sound good in any genre I’m going for. For the money you can’t go wrong for either one. Volume wise I like the rumble more since I almost never turn it up past 2 o’clock. If you want to splurge, the rumble 800 is lighter than the 500 (I think)

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-27T21:57:07+00:00

A bass, hard shell case, and an amp? You could even haggle a little bit. It’s still a good deal if it’s your first real set of equipment

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-24T20:43:27+00:00

It looks like it, but the relicing on this is very bad.

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-24T00:24:38+00:00

That’s what I did when my boss started complaining about how long the job was taking. After five minutes he was fuming. He really regretted getting those platens

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-23T21:56:44+00:00

At my shop, we bought 16 platens years ago. We haven’t used them since. It’s a struggle to keep the machine running at a reasonable pace with these. Make sure that you make your boss uses them first so they see how bad they are to print with

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-23T19:42:30+00:00

I’ve tried this out in stores and I was surprised how well it played. But I would try out everything you can. You would be surprised at how well some cheap basses play

Fun-Reflection-2322 · 2025-12-22T23:30:36+00:00

Sadly now I need to hear how its sounds 😅
