I have a Rogue SX100B. It's not that bad, but it does have a few "bugs."

This is the package it came with: [url]http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=bass/search/bigpid/base_id/85718/[/url]

I have a squier P-bass (Fender) with select emg pickups and a 15 inch crate cabinet. Also a Behringer Guitar amp of some sort (use as a head) i have all my stuff at my bands place so i can't tell you exactly what it is. It "had" two blown speakers, that the previous owner decided to tear out (not sure if they were really blown) I grabed it out him for 60 bucks. Works for what i use it for but i need more. I also have a Vintage Ibanez Jazz bass which i sold becuase i didn't like it much.

my "friend" broke my peavey jazz bass (cheap-o) in half (dont ask how) but i didn't mind cuz his mom made him buy me a Cort Action bass ( i love it) hes now my "friend" again, as long as he doesnt touch my bass

DeathAngel 02-28-2005 08:34 PM

glad to see i'm not the only bassist with a cheap bass. that's ok though, cuz i bet half of us can own the musicman/warwick owners with our low-end basses :lol: :)

You can say that for yourself dude! ;)
If you like it, if you like the sound of it, if you like the feeling of it.. who cares about other oppinions then :thumb:

Naveed Afzal 03-02-2005 11:05 AM

I would just like to say... just because a bass is expensive doesnt mean its great and just because its cheap or mid range doesnt mean it sucks...

alot of time what you are paying for is the name.

You can get a carvin for 800 to 1000, and it may play better to you, then a 2000 fender, GL, Lakland, Musicman, Warwick or anything else...


200 for a bass is a good deal, if it plays and doesnt constantly give you problems then good for you,

i have a gsr 200....

but i also have a Fender Jazz

exit 03-03-2005 05:00 AM

^ Agree

My bass plays fairly well seeing as it was REALLY cheap.

I payed around 350$ for my bass and a 100W Randall Combo
Used though but in nearly perfect condition (besides some minor scratches)

bassist-bmxer 03-03-2005 08:36 AM

exit: The kid i teach bass to has that bass, i thought it was pretty good! bit heavy though.

fallen angel2121 03-03-2005 08:44 AM

I have a bass by Vintage, and I love it. It only cost £200 (maybe US$300) but it sounds sweet as hel through, of al things, a Behringer BX1200. The problem now is that I don't want to spend money on an undoubtedly better bass, cos I don't think it'd be better enough....

[QUOTE=Ian]My *** is broke, I got bills and dont paid enough at my current job to afford musicmans, sadowskys, etc.

I play old school Peavey basses, the ones that were made in USA. They started making basses in 1978, its the older the better as far as quality goes. The one I use as my main bass now is an '84 Fury. Tone is almost identical to a fender P-bass, pickup is pretty hot for a passive. Super reliable basses, though. Dirt cheap on Ebay, this one cost me $150...for made in usa at that.

Now I like that! Peavey is the **** man. I play an early 80's Foundation. It's my little blue baby. That thing has takin some abuse and kept going.

I have a late 80's Dynabass with a Foundation neck, and it's far better than many more expensive basses I've played. Those Super Ferrite pickups are awesome. I really want to get a Fury from the same era; they have a really awesome p-bass tone.

While it may look pretty decent, this particular one sounds and plays like $430 worth of garbage. :(

Wow, year old thread. Biggest bump i've seen.

mastrrbasser 03-14-2006 03:16 PM

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
well if the person that bumped it made a new thread saying "post pics of your ****ty basses," someone would say "derp, we had a thread like this before." If he bumps it he gets told he bumped it. Quit bitching, he's conserving space by posting in a thread that already exists. :thumb:

Bass_swede 03-14-2006 03:46 PM

I will post some pics of my ghetto-beauty OLP MM2 soon! Stay tuned
