Let's see your AMP!

[theavondon]

just got this giant off of Craigslist. the dude ( a super cool guy ) who put it up listed it as a "project" and it was free! i took it apart, found half of the dumb molex connectors had yanked apart. plugged them back together, soldered a couple wires, and it works
i dont have a 2ohm cab rated for 800w, so ill have to wait to see how loud it really is.
it looks freakin massive, but if you look inside there's just two pcb's, two huge caps, and a 25lb transformer. its totally empty.

Fuuuuuuck yes.

I've found that using a "guitar" amp with a bass cab pretty much exactly nails the sound I want on bass. I never went for that super deep tubby sound. I'm all grind and mids, so it suits me perfectly. When I play through an actual "bass" amp nowadays, it either sounds muffled and dead or hifi and piercingly clean.

I'm actually preferring the tone on my guitar with the Sadowsky Bass Preamp/DI engaged.

Does Not Compute.

Seriously. Finding myself playing my instruments a lot more with this amp in house. Not that that is anything abnormal. I usually play a lot more the first few weeks after I acquire a new piece. But because I'm playing so much, this amp feels like it's actually causing me to make breakthroughs in my guitar playing. Not that the Blackstar is anything unique or special, but it's the most proper guitar amp I've ever owned and it's definitely more inspiring and musical to play than the more mediocre sounding stuff I've used in the past.

I'm using more bass than guitar cabs right now. Dude at a show complimented my sound and said to me "wait till you can get some guitar cabs!"

I laughed.

Some people never learn....

I used to love the "why are you using a bass amp for guitar" guys, as if it can only be used for exactly what the label says. I usually respond with "so I can crank it up loud enough to not hear the idiots talk about shit they know nothing about."

I bet if you were playing a Marshall Super BASS or a Fender BASSman, they wouldn't bat an eyelid since they're considered, across the board, to be equally at home, and arguably superior, with a standard electric guitar.

Yup most likely!!! I personally liked my Orange AD200B much more on guitar, as well as my Peavey VB-2. If it works don't hate!

Likewise, WHEN CAN I PLAY ONEEEEEE

also, DAT cab, seriously. How are you liking it?? Does it sound like you thought it would after you got it all together?

This is what I was rocking tonight:

[SCHN]

It sounds great, i didn't see a big différence, i used the speakers that were in my other cab. it's maybe i little more tighter, i have to try to completly isolate the interior.

if you stop by Montréal you can play one!

I'll have to swing a ride with my dad next time he is in Canada, that would rule!
