    Pedalboard configurations for more that one bass

    Here's a question for those of you who use pedals(preamp, graphic eq, parametric eq, compression, etc). If you carry more that one bass and are say using an a/b switch, are you just running both basses through the same pedals? It seems like if you tweak sound for one bass, you would need a...

    Two basses on Disco Inferno?

    So I'm bouncing around on YouTube, and come across the old Saturday Night Fever tune Disco Inferno. I've been playing some disco in my band, and it usually goes well. So I'm watching the video, and am surprised to see two guys each playing bass. there's a guy on the far left playing a Jazz, and...

    Two Basses: Sell individually or as a set?

    I have 2 mid-90s, Ibanez Expressionist basses, one fretted, the other fretless. Same finish, no pickguard. The fretless was masterfully epoxied by HG Thor. That alone should add some value... The question is as presented on the subject: Do you see any value to selling twin basses as a set, or...

    How might I play two basses through the same cabinet?

    I often need to bring an upright and an electric bass to gigs. I notice my cabinet has two inputs in the back (1/4"). And it doesn't seem to matter which of the two inputs I put my speaker cable into from the amplifier,. Can I have two amplifiers, and run a speaker cable from each amp, to one...

    Torn between two basses... any Roscoe/Warwick session players?

    I'm replacing my "pawn shop starter P bass" after a year and a half of playing (spending ~$2k). I'm an aspiring engineer/producer that's made the decision that bass guitar would make a great supplemental instrument to help me produce my own hip hop tunes (Dr.Dre/Jake One/Alchemist vein), study...

    Two basses one amp

    Hi, what pedal would let me plug two basses into the same amp and toggle between them? The boss LS-2 doesn’t look like it does that (unless it does?).

    Peavey gigbag for two basses. I found one on sale at a local peavey supplier in Sweden. No picture in the ad. I can't find any info on the internet about it. Has anyone seen/ used one? Thanks!

    Flying Two Basses *WITHOUT* a Dual Bag

    Here's a twist on the classic 'flying with my bass' thread... I've got two basses that I want to take with me when I move to the UK for a PhD program next month. I've already planned to buy a seat for my bass because there is no way in hell I'm letting baggage handlers (mis)handle my...

    Review: Morley AB-Y vs. ABC vs. Boss LS-2 for switching between two basses

    Summary: Before the test, I thought I'd want to keep the Boss. But afterwards I strongly prefered the Morely ABC. I play both upright and P-bass with my band, and I want to easily switch between the two basses. I checked out the whole world of "AB-Y" switches, and these three sum up the...

    Two basses or one?

    So I'm saving up ~$2000 for a bass splurge, but I don't know whether I should get two basses or one. Two basses : I've already got a 6 string, so I'm thinking just get a 4 and 5, something like a American P bass V and sterling ray34 (natural-maple). This way, I'll have a "full" collection. Any...

    Choosing between these two basses - Poll

    I was planning on ordering a custom short scale jazz bass, but based on some up and coming stuff, I don't want the wait time at the moment. I am a lover of 30" scale basses and need a Jazz style instrument. There is not a lot of used stuff around here, and what we do have is pretty damn...

    Gigging with two basses

    Not exactly sure where to post this, so since it has to do with gigs and basses I'll put it here. I now have two basses I can gig with, a P and a J Bass. We'll be playing a gig this Saturday night, and I'd like to bring both and play them on different songs. Our set list is about 45 to 50 songs...

    Tone check - GK DI using two basses

    I don't play in a band (still trying to get with one - have two leads now - but not too many opportunities in my town). But I write and record stuff instead. Since I do this at home, I always have used DI and have 100's of amp models from various software. Bass tone is something I've always...

    Two basses on "Sugar" by Maroon 5?

    When I have played this song in wedding bands, typically the guitar player plays the chords, but it sounds to me like the chords are actually played on a bass doing double stops, with another bass doing the regular low-pitched bass line. No difference either way, other than I love it when a song...

    Tracks with two basses

    Heard any tracks with two basses lately? Here's one that surprised me because I've heard it many times before and never noticed. Maybe this was the first time with headphones.
