    Cheep Pratice amp

    I'm new to bass and am waiting on a new Ibanez Talman TMB100. I have an amp that I feel is too much for praticing (I'll be praticing in the middle of the night). What are some good budget options for pratice amps?

    Wanted Ibanez Talman Intertour

    This is an acoustic/electric 5-string...very rare. I recently saw a YouTube video of a fretless model: But Ibanez said they were all fretted. It also goes by model TTR 35B.

    Why isn't poplar more popUlar?...
