SOLD: Mesa Boogie Subway D-800 amp head
JohnDaBass replied to Musashimonkey's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale

+1 for the Barefaced Super Compact 1x12 great cab and will produce any sound you want, very neutral. I use a Mesa Subway D800 as my main amp but before acquiring the Mesa I used a Fender Rumble 500 head, both good amps but the Mesa D800 has real H**t ( oops). Two Super Compacts sound HUGE.

Hi Tom, It would be great if you did a 'Build thread' Really interested in the source of necks. Great looking basses. Well done!

I would what the monitor mix is like!

There is a very wide range of tones on offer with the D800/Super Compact setup. The gain allows you the freedom to have a very clean sound right thro to warm distortion. The voice control varies the type of amp sounds available coupled with the built-in HPF you can achieve your own tailored sweetspot.

+1 for Mesa Subway D800 into a Barefaced Super Compact 3 gen. Huge sound with marvellous range of tones.

But I bet your 're Hot on the ole 12 bar blues thingy!

+1 Mesa Subway D800 into one or two Super Compacts produces a huge sound with a variety of tones that should satisfy most bassists playing a wide range of rock, blues, pop, funk or jazz. Absolutely a lovely combination!!!

P Bass Body - Dark Red

Hi Andy, For PUPs think about DiMazio Split P and a KiOgon loom with old stock Spragg cap. Really great range of tones with warm, lush lows. The DiMarzio Jazz PUP is really well matched as it is a split coil and removes some of the output loss associated with single coil Jazz PUPs in P/J configurations . Great project the bass looks handsome, Well Done!

Smallest mixer / portable solution with...
JohnDaBass replied to Dood's topic in Accessories and Misc
Hi Dood, What about the Behringer XR12? Great flexibility and all controlled from your IPad or Android tablet. If you want to go the extra mile then the Midas MR12 adds better preamps and full 12 channel USB out to your DAW software. Just saying! -

+1 for the Mesa Subway D800. Lots of clean power and a huge variety of tones on tap with the character/ voice control. Also runs at 2 Ohms and has a very flexible DI output for FOH.

HI All, For Sale is a dark Red P Bass body purchased from Tom1946 earlier this year. The plan was to build a 'Duck' Dunn tribute P bass with a Jazz neck. However, just after buying the red body up pops a Sonic Blue P bass body which ended up as the one I used. I am looking for the same as I paid Tom so £35 delivered to the UK. Here are the pics of the Red Body.

+1 for the Thumpinator. Essential bit of kit if your amp has no built-in HPF. My Mesa Subway D800 has it built-in but my Fender Rumble 500 head does not and it's worth every penny to clean up and control the bottom end and improve the efficiency of your speaker cab.

1972 Telecaster Bass with original case
JohnDaBass replied to yorks5stringer's topic in Bass Guitars
As said already it's a players bass the mods mean you can enjoy playing a vintage bass without worrying that you are not going to ding it and lose any value. You're not going loose any money at all on the purchase but it's not going to appreciate like an all stock bass. I've got the exact same bass that's all totally stock with the crackling volume and tone knobs and the obligatory crack in the pickguard between the end of the neck and the pickup. It's got a huge sound, looks handsome but has a thick neck. Go for it! You'll love it! -
Last Saturday played a wedding and had to use the feature band's backline of Aguilar TH500 into Barefaced G3 Super Compact. Really disappointed with tone and output with the rig while using my Fender P with DiMarzio Split P Pup.Volume was really poor overload light flashing even with Gain and Drive at zero (7 o clock) a really distorted sound when pushing the amp for more output to compete with drummer and 3 guitarists . If I knew what to expect I would have used my Mesa Subway D800 or my Fender Rumble 500 into my trusty Barefaced G3 Super Compact, both amps blow the TH 500 totally away. Always able to get my preferred tone with either the Mesa or the Rumble. The feature band's bassist was also the sound guy who appeared to use the TH 500 as on stage monitor with a great deal of DI PA support. Stand alone the Aguilar just didn't have what it takes and appeared to be a 'bit of a wimp ' Anyone else suffered a similar experience?

Vocal harmony pedals. Anyone use them live?
JohnDaBass replied to dave_bass5's topic in Accessories and Misc
I have a TC Helicon Voicelive play. Very simple to use with over 500 downloadable patches. Helps with realtime pitch correction and simple on/off control. Very slick piece of kit.
