You do? Its excellent, way lod. But I cant get enough growl! Gav, can you help?

Turn down your high mids and treble.

Rock out.

Im trying that right now...

[QUOTE=ridethelightning]nice jiggy.

gav is that the same one you got?[/QUOTE]

The very same. It's an incredible head. It's so loud through one cab 4x10 cab (GK Backline 410BLX).

Any suggestions on another cab to add for more low end? I'm thinking 1x15, but not too sure of what to look at...another GK, preferably, just so it looks nice. :lol:

[QUOTE=Mr. Jiggy Fly]Im trying that right now...[/QUOTE]

go 1x18

Jaco used almost excusevly roundwounds

[QUOTE=ridethelightning]guys, my guitarist is now going to vocals n guitar.

The rule of thumb is that your amp should have 4 times the wattage of your guitarists to be heard.

It all depends on what amp it is, I guess.

there is no point to the 1x18 unless your going to have an C#0

i heard the swr one is good. i dnno


4x the guitarist for a signer?

[QUOTE=quatre07]Jaco used almost excusevly roundwounds[/QUOTE]

I find that ironic. I was 90% sure he used Roundwounds, but you'd assume Flatwounds for their low end, bassier sound, smoother feel, and because he used a fretless.

Meh, but it worked for Jaco.

Just 4x your guitarists' loudest amp. If one guitarist is going 100 watts and the other 110, you want about 440 watts.

However, I used a 220 watt against my guitarists' 110 watt amps (just about there) and it held up fine.

hay i just had a thought, ok so if anyone wants a fretless out of their fretted bass. if oyu ship it to me ill do the job at cost.

Ibanez GSR200 and SWR 2x10. Your EQ slightly helped, but Id like something similar to By the Way by RHCP (the song). My sound is now very smooth. My old EQ was...
Treble- 11 o'clock
High Mid- 1:30
Low Mid- 4:30-5 o'clock
Bass- 2 o'clock.

I like it a bit more. What does presence do?

so, if the guitar amp is 100, the singer amp should be 400??

i need to know about mics n ****, not bass. i know about bass rule of thumb.
maybe theres some confusion.
how loud of an amp for the signer do we need.

So... I think Im going to buy some La Bella James Jamerson flatwounds.

Oh, :lol: Wow. sorry.

My band uses a random Peavey PA and head. It's not too loud, but it gets the job done and it's pretty clear.

I'll grab the specs for you tomorrow. Just remind me.

i think that he ment that your bass amp should be 4 times that of a guitar amp.
