Re: bass preamp (RE: rackmount overdrive/distortion)



Title: OT: bass preamp (RE: rackmount overdrive/distortion)

for what kind of music? country? death-metal?

>just good old fashioned moderate overdrive.  no metal.  i like the sound of the fulltone fulldrive units. 

I am looking for a superlative bass head to drive a 2x15 (haven't built yet so not sure of load but guessing it's 4 ohm)

>this will depend on your poweramp.  i don't think alembic builds a head...just preamps.

under 1500? I loop on my own but when I play with the band it's a heavy rock thing.

is the alembic all that?

>is the alembic all what?  under 1500?  yes.  capable of heavy rock?  uh, i guess.

thx

Ben

I forgot to thank you regarding the alembic suggestion.
i finally find one and have it here, it is the best sounding gtr/bass tube
preamp i've ever used !

thanks,
