For all rglages I suggest you see directly on the site within Hughes & Kettner textbooks BASSBASE Section 400.

A by the facade that turns a pretty blue to avoid galleys in dark places and the weight of the gear is pretty small potatoes for it sends.

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration, you plug and rings, no need galR 10 years to get the sound you want. For the equalizer and the notch filter varimtric by the cons I think we can spend a little while if you're a psychopath sound. At any rate the manual is clear enough to reach his goals. There may be snapping up all of that goes round.

SOUNDS

It should all styles of music. I use it with Fender Jazz bass fretless cargo details, a Charvel, a 5 string Ibanez. Me I like her well enough that goes round everywhere and that the character (warms the lamp), but can also slam serious slap. In the sounds I think we can be quite delighted by this stuff.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had almost three years I think and I love the sound of this gear is effective in all situations for a pretty reasonable weight (no need to pter back to lug around). I tried a lot of models before acqurir especially in vintage. Quality at prices that the ball (at least now), there has to judge with the price of its big brother the bassbase 600.
Exprience with the era I will ever be the choice for qualitprix level / power. But now (APRS hard work to get the finances) I found the holy grail with a Aguilar DB750 for calm and a drummer to play the ampeg b15 cool.
