- We Dive deep into this great Bass Amp from Mesa. Many sounds samples. This amp is two channels and is very versatile. I compare the two different channels and play three different basses in this video.
Only just got my TT800 and found after the first gig that my Boogie settings matched yours altho i may bring the gain back a touch for next gig. Still got the SW channel to sort out and your vid is helping a lot. Using a Sandberg VM4. Cheers for sharing your settings.
Thanks a lovely walkthrough sounds very fat and full sounding
great video, the music man sounds incredible through that thing!
That Jazz bass sounds great with whatever setting you had going on towards the end of the video. Actually, they all sounded pretty good. Great job! Jazz bass is my favorite!
Cool, thanks!
Both sound great !!
what's the high pass knob for ?
I used Shure 57 and Mesa DI out
I see you also have the Markbass Vintage. How would you compare that to the TT800?
If that may help, I've been giggin' the Markbass Vintage (500w) for 1 month, and it really depends on the bass you are using; it really sounds awesome with everything else than a Precision bass, as it really thickens/fattens up the sound, emphasizing the lows and deep lows; giving to every notes of your Jazz Bass or Sting Ray bass more body, presence and authority.
But on the other hand , it didn't work at all with my vintage P-bass strung with flatwounds as it utterly emphasized the low spectrum of the bass that was already dominant with this bass, making the sound muddy and barely usable. By dialing down the bass knob it didn't work either, as it modified the whole EQ .
So I would suggest that you try by yourself.
Gabriel Severn, an awesome bassist whom you can find plenty of video's on UA-cam, uses the Markbass Vintage amp. And you'll hear that it sounds awesome, fat and punchy, with his modern-sounding basses.
But if you use a vintage P, you should have another amp for that use IMO
I'm myself hesitating about going that route, but that means making use of 2 amp heads...
I have one of these two and it simply rules. I usually have the boogie channel set up for edge-of-breakup classic sounds and then the Subway channel for clean tones. It's really nice to switch between the two. I wish it had some more tube distortion on tap but it might be user error. Will try cranking the Boogie gain all the way up and dropping the master to unity and seeing where that gets me.
I've noticed my pickup volume affects how easy it is to get the amp to break up. If I dime my bass pickups I can dial in grit more easily.
Jeez that sounds good
I love Both Channels.
