New Amp

[DunCe180]

Ok, right now i have a cheapo 10 watt ibanez amp:p , and fender mim pbass. (I bought the bass first lol).

So now I need to know what amp to buy, whats a decent amp within the price range of 100-350. I want somthing that would work good for punk music and can make enough noise for a high school gig.

Any help would be much apprecieated :thumb:

ibanez sw100.

cheap, realiable, simple, and lots of oomph!

[blizzard]

Fender Rumble maybe? I think they are about $350.

I have heard good and bad things about this amp, maybe some of the guys here know about it http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Bass/Amps?sku=481092
The fender rumble series is pretty decent for the price too.

I've always been a fan or Hartke's myself. A nice fullstack at a local shop. I was planning on that before I found the 6x10 I've got now.


It's pretty sweet. No idea if you could find it... But if you do, I personally say they're pretty sweet.

Laney R4 Combo, I own one and it's incredibly good for the price. I think it cost like US$ 450 though, but it's 300 w and has a 15" speaker. It also has a 7 band graphic EQ.

I've got the R3 and its very good as well.

I wish I could get one of those Acoustic 2x15's. Now that, plus what I have, would own.

I would go for the Laney R5, its 300w and instead of a 15" speaker, it has 2 12" speakers. I have it and would definitely recommend it

I tried out the R5 and it's a beast as well. Anyhow, I prefered the R4 because it gave me better low-end and it also had the 7 band graphic eq. In top of that it was like US$50 cheaper!!:chug:

I got a Trace Elliot rig for £350, but I wouldn't sully it with punk...

[d-basser]

i prefer the R4 sound to the R5, but each to his own

[DunCe180]

punk as in?

as in punk rock, pop punk.

Ive been looking at the behringer bx1200, is that any good. And is 120 watts loud enough for a gig?

[DunCe180]

[the101er]

Laney, fair and square


And Chris, you're input int his thread is worthless as you got an AMAZING deal on the Trace rig

TS I'd look into Hartke or Laney, cheapish, reliable and LOUD.

Yes it would be loud enough, but Behringer are ****. The tone is sterile, and hissy at loud volumes. I sold my BX1200 to buy an Ashdown MAG C210t-300, which is awesome. Very loud, quite cheap, very reliable. Got a MAG 1x15" too for extra low end and a bit more volume

Hey guys chill out, this thread is about amps, not about Chris K or anything. Please don't make the bass forum a spam fest.

And yes I know, my post is just as spam as yours.

That amp looks nice, but a little outta my price range (read first post).

And what is a good wattage for gigs is it like 100 watts and up? Because ive been looking at the fender rumble 100 watt.

opps, srry for the double post
