Typically - a passive bass straight into a nice amp…no pedals or gadgets in between. No criticism for people who do that - but with an FX heavy guitarist, this seems to work - plus the less complicated it is for me - the better 😂🥴 For sure. I couldn’t make mine break a sweat, and I did really try once. I bottled it before the cab! Bet that EBS really suits it. Way too big and powerful for my needs now, and long gone, but this was a helluva set up: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pst62 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Here's mine, (I know, I know) but I only played at home these days and it does the job well enough. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pea Turgh Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) Me too! In fact, I sort of made a fancy one with an Ampeg PF350 and a Barefaced Two10. Would like a chunkier amp to sit on top though. Edited July 30, 2021 by Pea Turgh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stub Mandrel Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I want to share my new rig.. but the courier has lost a shipment between Orange and Andertons, so they could only offer me the slightly scratched demo one 😭 I decided to wait and get a new one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works really well and way louder than what you’d expect from 30w. Not the prettiest set up , but if it works it works . What driver did you put in the Schroeder?

A cheap Thomann brand PA 300w driver (the “box” replacement), there’s another 15” driver positioned at right angles . Together they make 700w/4ohm. The replacement sounds good to my ears anyway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarshallBTB Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 My two options at the moment. Love the berg cab, so clear and so much headroom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirky Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 First gig since I replaced my TKS212 with two OneTens. Korg rack tuner, Samsamp RB1, GK Fusion 550, 2 X Barefaced 110s. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushbo Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Here's my current gigging rig for Roxy Magic - the Roxy Music tribute I've been playing in for a while. I love a PJ configuration, I do. The red one is a bitsa and the natural one is a heavily modified/butchered "Cowpoke." The combo and cab are from the short lived Genz Benz "Contour" range. They're ace. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javi_bassist Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 A crappy pic, but here's my current rig: Ashdown RM500, Ashdown RM112T and my Fender MP Dimension bass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend not to fiddle too much with my gear whilst playing - just switching the Sansamp off and on depending on the song, tuner on and off, and amp mute. It probably won't be feasible in many places we play, unless i build some sort of stand, but that would just be another thing to carry.

I was holding out for a HDN212, but I missed out on a couple of CN212 cans at Bass Direct recently and I am beginning to regret it. I did have an AE212 before, which I really liked, even if I prefer the HDs (but not that much in it really). I don't suppose you can say how the CN212 compares to the HD or HDN (or even the AE) cabs?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stub Mandrel Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Six days after Anderton's told me they expected a batch of Orange Terror Bass heads in last monday, they still can't offer me a delivery date as actually they aren't waiting for a new shipment but just hoping the ones 'lost in the post' will turn up. So I've cancelled my order, and thanked them for trying to fulfil it, as it seems PMT's shipment arrived a week ago and I've managed to order while they claim to still have several in stock across the UK. Hopefully Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
