i am majorly gassing  for a small bass amp of some kind.   this happens every time i build a bass - i want something to play it through.   i tried the guitar amp which is ok but could be better, i also tried it through the computer but my PC speakers are definately not good enough for bass :(

i have another bass in progress for myself so need to get this sorted

I'm guessing Ian wouldn't buy a pink sparkly Matt Bellamy guitar!   :lol:

My thoughts exactly!  :P

Hi Wez, if you can find a Trace Elliot BLX around for a decent price go for it.  They are a phenomenal little bass amp (however they are built like the proverbial brick shizenhousen and weigh a ton).  Not sure how much they are going for, but mine was about $500 new in 1992.

Found this one:

there are a couple of auctions going with it spelt as Trace Elliott (2t's), so you might get a bargain there.

I believe Keith's LP is a Les Paul Standard...
