I got a YBA-1 thinking in getting a VI, never did, but damn that's hot af!

That Rick is so sick, I want one of those or a Dakota really badly.

The Atlantis has made me appreciate the walnut on the Dakota much more. What I like about the Atlantis is the finish on the maple neck. The Dakota just has a light oil finish so it's almost impossible to keep clean.

I'm tossing around the idea of putting a Delta or Black Widow in the Ampeg cab. It's not that I don't like what's in there now -- it just doesn't thump in the really low notes like I'd prefer. Maybe I could also try a graphic bass equalizer -- while that doesn't solve the volume problem, it may at least help me shape it closer to what I want. This is really only used for recording anyway.

I think I may also need to take the YBA-1 in to Chicago Music Exchange. For some reason the circuit breaks and has to be reset all the time, especially when It's cranked.

I think I posted this video before but here's what it sounds like. The dirt is coming from an EH LPB-2UBE preamp. Recording was done with my phone and a Røde iXY condenser.

Ahh that’s fair, I want a Dakota for the same/opposite reason. I love oil finishes and put them on everything I build. I want to build a Dakota shaped bass.

Setup at an arts exhibition. One rig for the skinny strings (all the way on the right) and 3 rigs for my bass.
(The stuff on the ironing board went through the MusicMan amps).

Nice Rick HAVN
Nice amps all over the page! Keep them coooomiiiîng!

So I picked up two amps the other day for $50 total (I'll post pics next time someone with a smart phone comes by), but I'm having trouble finding info on them. I got a Peavy Standard 260 and a Gorilla gg110, either worth keeping? Can you play bass on the Gorilla without tearing the shit out of it?

Don't think I've posted this one here...

Serious amp envy here, this must sound enormous.

Picked up this silverface Fender Champ today.

I already love how light, small, and quiet it is. It's so funny being able to turn it up to 7 and not having to worry about bothering my neighbors.

^ Champs rule. That looks to be in might fine condition, too!
