Members Cortfan Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Before our gig last night, I caught a few tunes from The Neville Brothers band. They were in Memphis for the Voo Doo Fest, doing a free preview on Beale Street. The bass player was using a Hartke head, and a Hartke stack with the aluminum cones. Sound was awesome.

Members Rippin' Robin Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 I played with a hartke fullstack (4x10 / 1x15) a few years ago and it was quite nice tonewise, and frickin' loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gruven Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 My HA3500 gets the job done pretty well and hasn't let me down in the 3+ years that I've owned it. Don't care much for the aluminum coned speakers that they make, but they sure can throw sound. They've always sounded kinda' harsh to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sunburstbasser Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Originally posted by Gruven Why does everybody always pick on Lug? What are you talking about? I don't think anyone picks on Lug. We just warn others. I've heard some Hartkes and played through them. Hate the cabs, even with an Eden head they don't sound very good. The heads are alright but not the sound I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members B-Bottom Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 I wish I still kept my hartke head as a back up. it only crapped out on me once, as opposed to the more expensive Ampeg which Ive had t the shop twice now in less than a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members s4001 Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Originally posted by Gruven Why does everybody always pick on Lug? It's fear. I played a 4x10 Hartke and never liked it. Just me, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members superiorparts Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 played a gig one weekend and the sound company had two bass rigs, one on each side of the drums. one rig was gk 800rb head with two swr 4x10 cabs. the other was gk 800rb head with a hartke 4x10 and 15 on bottom. played the hartke cabs the first night. played the swr cabs the next. no comparison. the hartke's sounded like crap next to the swr's. i thought they would have sounded better but they didn't. they were all looks. kevin james www.monkeyboneband.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
