It does not, I sent mine back with a strongly recorded bass line of complaint.

According to he spec on your amp it is 150w and 200w peak even though it's sold as 250w, so it's probably a good little practice amp but not a good gigging/rehearing amp. Use the Di out to pa speaker or to a powered cab, to get the extra volume you need.
-
This. And also speaker size is important, not just watts, a 250w 15” or 2x10 with push more air (volume) than a single 10” or 12” add an extension cab, Di out to an external pa speaker or unfortunately have to get a bigger rig, if you have a £150-£180 budget you can you an extention second hand or part ex on a bigger amp.

Love this pic might steal it

I like coil tapping the bridge pickup and having a slightly lower volume than the neck, get a great tone like that.

I've gotta one of these in wine and red, it's an awesome bass, everything from vintage warm to Spector style thump and growl. Love mine and some bargains about. Got mine from Dawsons too, ordered it in to collect from Leeds shop.

SOLD Fender Noir Ltd edition precision Bass £550

I had a second hand spectre, it was ok, nothing wow, bit muddy sounding, and harsh at the same time, moved it on. I have heard that neck thru models are better rounded warmer sound but still gave bite, my Gibson EB does that better than the spectre did. May try a NT model at some point in the future.

Price dropped, £550 getting Lots off attention but no solid offers so far. Fender Noir ltd edition P bass upgraded with superb EMG Geezor butler pickups. With the upgraded pick ups, this bass is up there with the best sounding P bass you will ever play. Great looking great playing Bass, just does not get played enough by me. No trades at all. Pickup or delivery at buyers expense.

Using the wrong knobs effects the tone!!!

Beat me too it.

Not always a name that springs up in combo comparisons, but check out the Peavey max combo range. I gave the older 112 200w combo and it's immense. Bought a fende rumble on trial and kept the Peavey, much better amp, the rumbles are ok but too muddy sounding. The Peavey 110 are 100w and the newer 112 is 150w and is a cou Le kg lighter than the older one I have, but you don't really need to full 200w as it's really load, and all have Di out built in.

Helix Floor/LT/HX/Stomp/PodGo owners' Club - Tips, Ideas & Patches
Rollin Thunder replied to Al Krow's topic in Effects
Like the scrambler, more bass specific effects is only a good thing, but i really like the Heir Apperent works great on bass, on its own or into a amp sim. -
you know i have never played owned or even picked up a Ric and never even considered one, maybe i am missing something (not the cost of one tough) i love my Jazz and geddy played Jazz basses since late 70s early 80s anyway.

yep defo great pedal. i have one for sale in the classified check it out.

Do pedals turn a passive bass into an active one?
Rollin Thunder replied to Al Krow's topic in Effects
i always run my basses into active input, some are active basses with active on of switches, plus i nearly always have some pedals running into the amp, Helix stomp currency always on with minimum of a light compression. I just fine it easier than switching between active and passive and when switching basses, just just increase the volume on passive bass or reduce when switching to active and use master amp volume if required. That suits me best and i think you get a more consistent cleaner sound ( clean as in smooth controllable). if you have a active passive on of switch that usually -10db then just use that but separate inputs a always go into the active input. -
drop C# even for QOSA just above stings rattling loose.
-
create a patch and put it on here for downloading onto Helix. sounds good.
-
Prepare to be a recluse for a week or two.

like the first one, nice fat warm drive, good base for running a bit more grit into, don't know of that's the vibe you were going for.

Just spent 2 hours on the Guitar into my Marshall combo, some great guitar effects too, won't use the amp music dels on Gguitsr, but why would I with a Marshall full tube amp, but the Boss DS-1 model is great, as are all the boss blocks, tubescreamer great, and a few gems from more boutique obscure pedals. love the Fuzz blocks on guitar and bass some great stuff. Of course it will be used 80%+ for bass. Also be good for Di I got my acoustic if I ever need to for recording etc.
-
I liked my B3n, they are very good, but yeah it's miles better, but for 3 times the price it wants to be. The transparency if the key it adds to the natural bass tone were as the zoom just takes it all away.
-
Happy with the stomp so far, sound quality light years ahead of my Zoom B3n whuch was not bad to start with, the true by pass and transparency is great can still get all the natural tone from my bass, which is exactly what i wanted. just set up around half a dozen presets with different amp sims and tried a few distortions and Fuzz blocks as that plopped will be used most. Some if the non bass distortions work very well on bass too, the Tube screamer sounds great, it sounded crap on the zoom. love the Galien Krueger amp the mesa channel 1 and the pearce channel 1&2 Darkgkass is good aswell
