Anyone else using old valve amps for bass?
I bought this old beast right before the first lockdown as a DOA amp. It needed a full restoration (electronically). I finally got it finished and tried it out.
Wasn’t expecting much, but it actually sounds great for bass. Balanced across all of the strings, and the G string sounds FAT, whereas I’m used to my Ampeg (PF-500) sounding a bit thin on that string.
It’s a bit impractical to gig with (weight), but that aside, it’s a very cool amp for bass.
