just a heads up

Re: just a heads up

ashdown MAG 600r head
dbx 131 EQ
4 space rack case
fishman pro platinum EQ
avatar neo 4x10

not your typical bass rig i know but... it's for upright, and i love me some avatar cabs so i didn't see the point in getting an ampeg or GK
 
Re: just a heads up

i will

it's the design that behringer copied & ruined, and honestly those behringer heads don't sound all that bad with a good cab, got a real natural tone to em, which with an upright is pretty important, i don't like it when they just sound like a more thumpy bass guitar

with that EQ & preamp though, i'm gonna be able to dial in some serious kick to the nuts thump

can't wait
 
Re: just a heads up

Cool! I have an Upright as well...my school gave it to me. I have to give it back at some point, but I've had it for a few years. They're such cool instruments...I love messing around with it. That looks like it'll be really interesting...keep us posted!
 
Re: just a heads up

The first time (and only time) I've played an amplified upright it was with one of those SWR combos with the 4x8.

I suck so much at upright- I think my friend Rob specifically broke his father's old 1930's Kay so I couldn't play it...
 
Re: just a heads up

hahahahaha

man, if someone is willing to break a 30's kay just to keep you away from it, you must be pretty horrid

it's not all that hard man, just spend a few weeks with one, build up callouses & such

spacecaptain - are you in orchestra or something? If not & you're just borrowing it cuz you can, you should string it up with some guts, run you about $160 but they're incredible for slap
