| Alliumphobia | I dont know for sure. But i know there's plenty of them on St-Denis. I got my guitar from steve's, and the prices aren't that bad (About 259$) and well i know that on the south shore there's also many of them. | ||

I'm really just in the market for a used amp but besides guitar picks, I wouldn't buy anything from Steve's. Their prices are high and their staff are jaded 'coulda-been' musicians. At least in Toronto that is, I've never been to the Montreal store but I've heard it's the same. Instead I go to Moog Audio on St-Laurent on Saturdays after eating an amazing $4 breakfast and play the Moog Voyager. This synth DESTROYS anything else I've ever touched. It seriously sounds like it's alive.   Alliumphobia I see that you live in Montreal too, unless you're fucking with me - what's a good used music store here? Is there anything like Songbird in Ottawa or Toronto? |

You should go and take a look at steve's. Look for some Fender amps. Still, take a look here: http://www.stevesmusic.com |

| Anonymous | I wanted to reply to this a while back but couldn't...but I think Bobo hit it on the nail. I llook for an amp that suits what your going to be doing...nice Roland 30 for practice and a 100 watt fender tube head for doing shows. | ||

i play bass hardcore man plop down 300 on any ampeg 15 inch combo. i got a 2x10 ampeg combo it rocks for practicing with a drummer and a gay guitarist (omg check out my 2x12 combo powering a 4x12) but mine was like $600 new. or u could be hardcore and just buy a cheap power amp off ebay (a good one like crown) a sansamp & a 2x15 or 410 whichever you'd like. you can run the sansamp straight to a poweramp but you have to modify it. this would be like $600-700 if you shopped around, and you could get a fucking loud ass amp this way. plus it'd be really ligh as it would just be a pedal+pa+cab ;P it'd sound rockin' if i had to do it all over again i'd do this.. but probably with a ts-50b or like an old ampeg head but you wouldn't need a pa (you'd need alot of money) or if u really like running thru pa's like a pussy just use the sansamp as a standalone preamp anywhere with a pa. it's only like $160 and would give you a really good (it's a tube emulator slash di) tone thru a pa. sansamp also has a rackmount for like $200 if you don't wanna mod a pedal for your own pa stack or... u could buy a peavey and a peavey cab if u really want power but it'll sound like shit. itll last forever and be cheap as fuck though (u could run a sansamp infront of it omg if u cannot see sansamp bass driver rules) |

I would suggest a Fender Bassman 150 or 250. New there about $400-600. You can find an old one for anywere between $150-$300. The vintage bassmans are saught after. A lot of bass players and some guitarists stand by these things religiously. I use to have a bassman 200, which is a model they don't make anymore, but i sold it a while back. Vox, Ampeg and SWR make some pretty good combo amps too. |

bass amps so the band i'm in has been playing an increasing number of shows, and i'm getting tired of asking people i don't know if i can borrow their bass amp at shows because i don't have my own. the thing is, i've never really had one and don't know a goddamned thing about bass amps. any bass players here with some suggestions as to what i should be looking for? i want cheap but with enough balls to play small to medium sized venues (or that is suitable to be mic'd to a PA). it doesn't have to be super high quality or anything, because the type of stuff we play is pretty welfare sounding. ps: dear chojin, i know fartin mowler plays bass... could you unban him from this thread only?
