Members ratfanatik Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 i bought a behringer bass head, but i dont like it. its for my home studio. i am a guitar player. does anyone know about those gk backline heads? are they junk or are they better than the behringer. i need at least 350 watts. i am running a full bass stack. i play progressive metal. my old bass head was a crate. it sounded good, but finally crapped out. i really cant afford more than $400 any ideas?

Members Mogwix Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 Why do you need a 350w full stack in your home studio? But anyways, the GK backline heads are way better than the behringer, I know some that run the GK backline series and are happy with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Thumper Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 Ashdown MAG 300 is three hundred watts. That really should be more than enough for a home studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members deanevanbassist Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 Kustom 1200 HD. They go new for about 500 or so. You should be able to get one off of ebay for about 350 or so. 1200 watts. I own one, they kick ass!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Crescent Seven Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 How loud do you want to get? My Ashdown MAG300 is loud as hell if you run the full 4 ohms. Is this a home "studio", as in recording, or a home "rehearsal space", as in live rehearsals?C7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members johnny6644 Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 Isn't the Behringer a cheap knock-off of the Ashdown anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that the same rule applies to cars, mixed drinks, and hookers. YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ratfanatik Posted September 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 thanks everyone! it is for live rehearsals and home recording. ineed something good enough for a session bass player to come in and play on. also for when i play bass occasionally live.

Members johnny6644 Posted September 14, 2006 Members Share Posted September 14, 2006 One of the online music places had Ashdown heads on sale, blem models, fairly recently. I bought one, came to my senses, and cancelled. But you sound like you really need one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
