EGIL Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Hello from Norway. First of all; my English is a little bit rusty so please don't get hung up by minor grammatical errors in my writing . But anyhow, I've got several questions regarding my Marshall bass amp (a DBS 7400 top and a 7412 cab). So, is there anybody out there who want tho share some info/experiences about this amp, please write back. Egil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Welcome to Basschat. I too have a DBS 7400, tho am selling it it due to having hurt my back recently. Great amps though, will be sorry to see it go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGIL Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 Hello Edward. And thanks a lot for responding so quickly. Well, I'd sure like to read some reviews about this amp. So far, I've not been able to track down any reviews at all. I think the DBS -amps was produced in a short period during the 90's, so I really don't know where to start looking for reviews this old. I also have a couple of questions regarding different setting for different kinds of music. One example; what's the optimal settings when I want a more percussive sound? I'm recently starting to get the hang of playing slap bass, but I sometimes "get lost" in my efforts trying to achieve the right sound. So, if you or anybody else out there could give me some hints I'll be very grateful. R and R EGIL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankdelvar Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) Hi Egil and welcome Couple of things: * Your English is sufficiently good that you could be an English teacher. In England. * DBS's are acclaimed by a small but loyal band of users as a secret bargain and the last decent Marshall bass amp. I have happy memories of a DBS stack, now long gone. * Re: Your slap tone query - why not post in the Amps sub-forum on the lines of 'Slap Tone out of a Marshall DBS?'. Don't be put off if anyone posts "Why would you want to?" We're a bit quirky like that round here Enjoy the forum!

The music? Er - bog standard rock covers, nothing too radical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
