burno70 Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 My girlfriend doesn't know yet but I'm planning on leaving my spare bass round at hers so I can noodle away when I'm round there. I need some sort of amplication - cheap as possible - my wallets still reeling from chrimbo. Doesn't even have to be be an amp, is there anything I can just plug into and use headphones with that still sounds decent? Any ideas, cheaper the better. thanks. Quote

burno70 Posted January 7, 2011 Author Posted January 7, 2011 Thanks for the quick responses. Both the amplug and the Ashdown Tourbus are great options. I may swing towards the Ashdown as I have a Perfect 10 that I get a lovely tone out of and if it can get similar that'd be perfect. Will have to wait till pay day tho.

[/quote] I appreciate the joke, but there's a serious side to such things. If bass playing is a big part of your life then it's a big part of you. I've never really understood why two people get together and then one of them sets out on a mission to change the other. What's the point? It can only end in grief. I've seen it happen on a number of occasions. Quote
