Can any bassbros recommend me a decent amp and eq head that doesn’t cost a million dollars?
I’m trying to get a harsh 90’s punk rock sound out of my Standard P
Can any bassbros recommend me a decent amp and eq head that doesn’t cost a million dollars?
One of these should do you fine. You can get them at most stores used for about 200-ish. They also make a higher wattage version if you can find it at a decent price. As for a cab, I'd say that doesn't matter an astronomical amount if you have a decent head.
If you want a combo, then just get the Ampeg BA210
Nice. And yeah from what I’ve read ampeg is what all the big acts used to use. Thanks man
Man these threads really don't take off like the guitar threads, eh?
Cab matters more than head
>big acts
hey there cool dude
it really doesn't you fucking retard
Look for used GK RB700, a decent 4x10 cab and one of these:
I would say a fender bass amp cause they’re pretty damn good. But those can get really pricey
Sansamp? I’ll check it out
Most important is the tonewood.
Yeah, you know, good charlotte, blink 182, Avril Levine, Pink before she sold out. real hardcore punk acts

Oh god, I know this is bait but pls
pls user
Did that sting?
Idiot
Really though I’m trying to sound like Jay Bentley from Bad Religion. YouTube anything by them from the 90s. That’s the sound I want
Twenty years of gigging/touring experience here and these are great answers
hardcore punk? hahahaha
Awesome. I’m pricing them today
Well I'm no expert on bass tone, but I do have a shitload of instrument tracks lying around. Here's one from Bad Religion, so you can get a reference of his bass without any mix on it.
Don't ask how I found it lol
Gtfo, that’s an original recording track? You’re a roadie or something aren’t you?
That’s fucking crazy, dump moar
Fender rumble series I highly recommend has on board distortion and decent enough eq settings have a 4x10 and head it fuckin rocks basically
It's legit. Just as proof, here's the vocals, since those are a lot harder to fake.
Give me a minute, I got one other bass track from them. And nah, not a roadie.
because bass players don't argue endlessly and needlessly about dumb shit. that's something guitarists do.
he asked about a decent, inexpensive amp and was given the requested information. If it was a guitar thread, there'd be post after post of machismo bragging about how good one is at guitar or how awesome your own gear is.
The guitar threads I've been in have been pretty cool, actually. Just sharing gear and giving advice.
I wasn't saying that to be a dick btw. I play both, so I wish there was more chatter in the bass community.
I already believed you, but What the actual fuck? This is awesome, I’m fucking geeking out here
Here's the other bass track I have.
If you want, I'll put them all on mega so you can download them directly.
Kill yourselves musicfags.
Fucking cool.
This man delivered today
This is amazing. It sounds like drop D so I’m guessing this is the version from stranger than fiction?
You sir...
Glad to help out. Not sure which version it is. Maybe the other tracks will confirm it for you. Here's the mega link to the rest if you guys are interested. Drums, guitar, vocals, extras, all that.

Sorry I can't post the full link because of the spam filter, but I assume everyone on Yea Forums knows how to use mega links. If not, let me know.
Can you leave the YouTube links up too please?
Sure, I'll leave them up. But I would recommend downloading them just in case YouTube decides to copyright strike.
Any other bands you're interested in? I got like 8,000 of these tracks lol
I'll post them on YouTube
Well I could recommend you buy every amp head and cabinet and you’d still come in under a million. Why don’t you be more specific how much money you want to spend? I mean do you have a job in NY money, or do you sit home and drink Mountain Dew in Arkansas money?
Anything in that genre, please and thank you
Lmfao, decent job on long island NY money.
But I’m not a pro musician. I just fuck around with my friends. Not looking to buy touring quality stuff
I got:
The Clash
Dead Kennedys
The Stooges
Blink 182
Any of those interest you? Probably got a couple others too.
Dead Kennedys
Any NOFX?
Just one song. "Soul Doubt"
I'll get the dead kennedys stuff going now
Fuckin A
Two seconds. YouTube was giving me shit, but I got it working now.
I believe this one is Holiday in Cambodia. I forgot which order I converted them in.
I think this one is Soul Doubt
Thanks again bro!
>90’s punk rock sound out of my Standard P
Dump the P bass.
No worries, glad to help out a bassbro.
Can you dump some stooges bass isolated? Particularly from fun house? Thanks user
Unfortunately, nothing off of Fun House, but I got:
No Fun
1969
I Wanna Be Your Dog
Search and Destroy
Interested in any of those?
Damn lad how we may contact you when we need something?
Yeah man that’s fine
Agreed. Go for a MusicMan / Stingray set up.
You can shoot me an email at
Here's the first one
Thanks a bunch bro, will do.
Number 2
And 4. Sorry the mix is in there a bit. Not sure why. Some of them have two instruments on one track, some have random backup vocals. It's just the way they mixed them down I guess.
Ur awesome
Second.
I really want to know where this dude got them from. Are they just computer isolated or are they they actual studio tracks? This shit is gold and the people need to hear this
Glad you like em.
This is fucking incredible
Anyone need a bassist for their band? Looking to do punk, post punk maybe even goth
They're actual studio tracks for the most part. If you want, I can share one of my sources. I tried posting the link on here, but the spam filter won't let me.
Just hit that email if you're interested
God people like you are what make beginners run away.
One of the best punk bassists ever Matt Freeman played a fender P and still does.....
Yeah. All you really need is a SansAmp in your setup and you’re gonna sound pretty damn good.
Never hurts to own an SVT tho but if money is a breaker getchu a SansAmp
Just ordered it. $209 on Amazon.
This was an awesome thread. Everyone delivered today.
A hartke hydrive 4x10 with overdrive will get you where yo want to be
>youtu.be
Please a mega would be amazing!
The mega is It's just the rest of the Bad Religion tracks though. The other stuff adds up to over 100GB, so I can't fit it all on a free mega. I'd have to just do requests.
Great choice on the sansamp, try to invest the rest of your money in a decent 4x10 with speakers you enjoy and a clean power amp look a QSC/Crown
Avoid Behringer like the plague
I’ve seen “hardcore” punk bands out where I live, I’d put them on the same level as these artist you mentioned
Do you have a catalog or what you do have ?
Well like it says in that one image, it's like 8,000 tracks. I can't really list them all. If you send me an email, I can send you some screenshots of the bands like this
