I'd like to think this is how it works in my band (we have 1 extra guitar player) as I have the same roles. Unfortunately I suspect that I'm a massive princess.

No pants, classic!

Cali76 deluxe and a power supply.

I'd look at 2x12 instead of a 15 incher or it would have to be a very impressive make to keep from going muddy in those conditions. I played an old Peavey tvx 410 for a while that was very impressive, tighter than it's ampeg counterpart. No clue how that translates to the current cabs.

Greatest guitar player is like greatest dog owner. Very nice for those directly involved. The broad world could care less but it'd have to put in some effort.

Tried the amps on different cabs? And the cabs with different amps? Checked for leaks or damp conditions?

No ramps, they get in the way and look sketchy at best.

Ah I always forget people like different things. The .73 are my standard selection although I have played the .88 for a while. Three tips for the price of one:

How do you break a pick? I've been playing for about 30 years, mostly with a pick. Couldn't break it if I tried! There's always a few in my right front pocket though, should I lose one.

No. 🫣

I've been looking at the ashdown little stubby for a home/studio amp. It seems a bit more flexible with the selectable character switch. Has anyone here used or compared one?

Perhaps this once, it is not the many who are wrong.

Ecstatic But wouldn't a short description be easier to search?

Why? Why bump a zombie thread while adding zero content?

A dark sound feels the same as a warm colour.

Only get tapewounds if you're after a plonky vintage type sound. They are BAD for livelier genres like punk/rock/metal.

Step 1 is setup: Saddle height, neck relief and pickup height. Start at or near factory standard, that should never sound bad. Step 2: as others suggest find a bass amp near you, the low octaves will sound anaemic through a guitar cab. Problem not solved? Let a bass player near you have a try on their rig, someone will identify the trouble, it's never too late to spend more money. Now where are the pictures? 😄

How about a Neve RNDI box? Record the best clean tone you can, you can sort out the character on the pc in post production or re-amp through good borrowed or rented amps.

Rapide leathercreme, Urad is a reputable brand too. Wipe some on with your fingers, let sit for 5-10 minutes, wipe off with a rag (old t-shirt or like). The leather May look wet for a bit bit it'll absorb all the nourishment after a bit.

I've noticed this on my tuner (TC polytune mini) also It'd make sense to have it start in tuning mode right?

A few spots in our songs can use that deep boom.

Billy has room for one more bass

Thanks! I'll try to refine my post in the coming weeks as the 'new toy wow factor' wears off. My guitarist built the bass for me: http://cellarguitars.com/index.php/cellar-v/ Tuned AEADG with a Dr-strings DDT 55-5 set.
