i do play bass, quite well too. I just have never decided to understand the way shit works cause I dont need to. thats why I have you guys. That whole sound wave tip is the most sense i've heard.

Either way, under the pressure to jam with my band I've been using my 45 watt epi guitar amp on the drive channel so it will be loud, with low gain to keep it clear but boosted. Its alright, but it is quiet enough.

its funny though, now when I turn off the amp, it takes longer for it to shut down, and when I plug in my guitar to it, it sometimes gets weird and the speaker will fade in and out and get weird but its sort of funny

Mikey, have you considered picking up an instrument that's more on your level?

this thing dragged on so long. the ending resolution. I have a decent bass amp and a Gibson SG Bass cherry finish. and I lived happily ever after, the end

I thought of this thread too a couple of weekends back when I recorded some bass tracks for a friend with a Orange Tiny Terror into my 1x15 cab. It sounded pretty good.

I've been kind of thinking of finding one of these and actually using it with a bass like Leo intended.

I have the guitar version, can it be modded to a bass headphone amp?

Not sure what the diff is.

It's the speakers that bear the pain of bass.

I got a '68 Bassman head now. Its really better on a guitar than a bass, but it's got a grind to it that's cool. With the right fuzz you can sound like Cactus on that head, which is pretty cool.
