    SOLD Jule Amps Monique Dovecage Preamp (w/Ruggard bag)

    This is my second time owning it, and I am only selling to fund a different format of Monique - despite the beauty, I can't afford to keep both the dovecage and another Monique. The preamp is in as-new condition, having only seen home use. It comes with a Ruggard camera bag that fits it really...

    Playing multiple amps simultaniously.

    Not entirely sure where to put this post... I have been using a Moogfooger MF-108M Cluster-Flux as my main Flange/Chorus pedal for a while, and just figured out how to use two amps simultaneously with it. As it has an option for use in stereo outputs. The sound? Was incredible. Not only that...

    Amps back in the day...

    A friend recently asked me about amplification I used back in the 70's, which got me thinking... Although I owned/used a lot of different amps back then, one particular rig stood out in my mind: For quite awhile I used an Ampeg V-4B head with an Ampeg 2X15 speaker cabinet with Altec 421 drivers...

    Genzler, Mesa, Aguilar & GK - The public's votes on class D amps

    The market of class-D heads is taking off more and more and while these builders are by no means the only dog's in the race, they seem to be some of the most talked about/revered right now (IMO). I wanted to create a space for them to be held up side-by-side by those who have some experience...

    Are all Peavey Amps and Cabs made in China now?

    Hello fellow bassists Growler571 here. I am wondering if all Peavey Amps and Cabs are made in China now or are some made in the U.S. still? If so which ones are made in the U.S.? Also how is the quality of the Chinese made cabs and amps? Are they as durable as the old Peaveys of the 70's 80's...

    Campfire bass amp...

    Soooo, camping season is just around the corner and I'm thinking about a small/tiny battery powered amp to help boost my acoustic bass a bit while jamming with a couple of acoustic guitars around the campfire.

    Stacking Combo Amps instead of head + cabs?

    This is something that has come up in the family. We definitely have experienced the power of matching like cabs. That was the educational topic last year that was made very clear a few times in particular... so Thanks TB for that! Now, we're hooked on the Ampeg BA210V2 for small situations...

    Are combo accordion amps safe to use for low-volume recording of a bass?

    If it's safe I'd like to try recording some bass through a FLOT-A-TONE Model 600 accordion amp. I'm a little concerned about the possibility of doing something bad the speaker, but I remember my cousin giving it some pretty good workouts with his accordion back in the day. I'm thinking a...

    Does anyone have any experience with the new Bugera Veyron-T BV1001T 2000 watt Class D bass amp? It seems to be too good for the price. Also the specs don't indicate at what load it gets its 2000 watt rating.

    Solid Gold FX Beta with small all-tube amps = redundant/not great?

    This is my first ever pedal and and it really seems to do what my amp already does by itself and the two together are not impressive. Would you say "duh" or "you're doing it wrong"?
