karlfer Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) My rig, only one I have. Practice acoustically at home. I love it. Sorry, dont have digital camera. Karl. Edited December 28, 2010 by karlfer Quote
skej21 Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) There are some beautiful rigs in this thread. Here's mine pictured with my '57 CS P bass (also featured in my avatar alongside my 70s Jazz). It seems to be rather small in comparison to some of the powerhouses and heavyweights in this thread, but I love it and it won't be going anywhere (unless it breaks!).

stonecoldbass Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Hey folks, Just thought I'd share with you a little info/review of my current rig as it's been a bit of a quest to get to this point! First off, some background info on myself: I'm a pro bass player who has moved to Melbourne from Glasgow 4 months ago and have been gradually getting more and more involved in the scene here, which is awesome! I had to sell my rig back home to fund my travels, which was an Aguilar DB750 and an Epifani UL410, which was tough but worth it! I purchased both the Genz Benz Shuttle 6 and the Eden 112XLT from the Ozbass forum (like basschat but not as active) and recently added a brand new Eden EX112 courtesy of the guys at Bass Centre, Melbourne. Coming from an all valve beast I was sceptical about this small and lightweight setup, but I have been thouroughly impressed so far. I've used it on a coupla gigs and a reh so far and it's filled each room with ease. You don't get the 'wall of thunder' you get with a massive head and a power hungry 410, but it's not far away. I run the head pretty much flat with the exception of the 'smiley face' eq curve button depressed and do any tonal adjustments from the bass. Having recently restrung courtesy of [url="http://"%20<a%20href="http://www.nakedstrings.com""%20target="_blank">http://www.nakedstrings.com"</a>"]Naked Strings[/url] the bottom end is thick and strong, while I find myself have to attenuate the highs but turning down the tweeter on the XLT. I can recommend this rig for people who have issues with space and money but still need a high powered, flexible and toneworthy rig. here are some pics, if you're interested I will try and do some recording for you guys to hear the capabilities. Cheers! Craig Quote

Plus my two basses of course [/quote] That is one sweet ass looking rig! Basically a big monster version of mine! How do you find the Shuttle 9? Craig Quote
gizmo6789 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 This is my Behringer BTR2000, mounted atop my Warwick Profet 3.3 head, which drives the Warwick WCA 211 PRO cab. It sounds brilliant but i wont be gigging it until the end of the month. Quote

I love the 3.0 too, I had one for a short while. Quote

goblin Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Trace 250 GP7 ontop of a Warwick WCA 211 and Trace 1153 (albeit with a 300 watt eminence). With the bass it sounds as good as it looks. Think I'm gunna debadge completely though, slightly meaner look Quote
bartelby Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 Here's a quick update, picked up a 1x15" cab from [b]oldslapper[/b] last week, to go with the Mark Bass head and 4x8" cab I got from him a couple of months back, now changed the grill back and added yellow piping. [attachment=68141:P1010034.jpg] Tried it all last night at rehearsal, it sounds excellent. Need to re-tweak the Sansamp BDDI to adjust for the 1x15"... Quote
nash Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 here's my current amp, it's the JCM800 i had before but modded by a friend so i have a master volume and clean/OD channels. the clean is voiced more for my bass. i use it for my guitar as well. it's a monster. Quote
