Bassist on the Run Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 [size="3"]I have a Line 6 HD 750 head going through Warwick 611 pro cab 6 ohms, playing with Ibanez k5 (active) also Tobias pro 4 (active) (both have new batteries) Yesterday I got the cab and there is a very LOW distortion coming from the cab, I took it to a music shop and they were kind enough to look at all my gear, embrassingly was told to put in a new battery all was good got it home checked it all, it was sounding great and no distortion at all Went out come back had a little jam and the distortion is BACK AGAIN!!!???? Went and brought the best batteries for both my basses and still distorted, I have listened through my head with my earphones in and in certain preset effect it sounds fine on others it is the same as it is coming through the cab ????? ANY IDEAS GUYS this is driving me mad???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Starr Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 If it is happening with both basses then it isnt that. Try swapping for a new jack lead. Then try a different head or your head with a different speaker. It could be an earthing issue so try a differnt kettle lead and also try plugging it into another mains socket as it could be the house wiring.

yorick Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Can you edit/check what effects are being used in the presets? If you can see if there's a distortion in there and remove it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
