Danuman Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Greetings fellow low-endians! I've lurked here, on occasion, but since I'm currenty actively looking for some proper gear, I decided to get with it. Strictly as a matter of speaking, of course - has bass playing ever really been hip? Anyway, I've an old Japanese Jazz bass copy, ca. late 1970s, which serves me very well in a floppy and unassumingly vintage way, and a dirt cheap P-bass copy, which only sounds nice if you don't compare it to the other one. I recently bought an Eden WTX 500, because it was such a ludicrously good offer that I simply couldn't have refused. I'm as yet somewhat unconvinced of its stage-worthiness, but the preamp sure does sound nice. I'm currenty searching for a decently efficient 8 ohm 112 cabinet, in order to create a compact and versatile rig while leaving some room for improvement, as my main drummer is unholy - think John Bonhamly - loud. (Essentially just as good too!) I'm currently liking Vanderkley cabinets, as their sensitivity seems pleasingly high, and they seem to be well-regarded on the whole. That, and the burgundy red is a nice touch. What do you all think? I hope to learn a lot from you guys. All the best, Daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpondonBassed Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Welcome Danuman. As Zaphod Beeblebrox once said; "Shee! You guys are so unhip it's a wonder your bums don't fall off." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danuman Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 Straight in with a Douglas Adams quote. Nice to know inspired silliness is appreciated round these parts. I like it here already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 If you liked that, just wait until you meet Hotblack Desiato. It might be a while though, he's spending a year dead for tax reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
