Alligator Bass Amp Combo 100w - 2x10
Alligator Bass Combo 2x10 Condition Used, it's ideal for rehearsals, practice and small gigs or combined for bigger gigs.. It was a bit dusty when I got it out of the loft but it's now clean. It's a great little combo, It was a British brand that made this nice amplifiers for a while before collapse, which is a shame as if you heck in google, they had nice reivews everywhere. I bought this from new, when I was a bassist, it's a very powerful for it's size, it is ideal for the beginner /Amateur taking it to the next stage, great for gigs (can be mounted up with other for extra power) for rehearsals with band in studio and at home practice. Technical aspects of the Combo. 2 x Inputs - hi/low active/passive Gain Compressor - This processor is designed to stop peak outputs from overdriving the amp, it will also increase the lower leve inputs. This means that generally that you can play a bit louder without the amp losing it on loud passages. Some are good some are not - perosnal preference thing. 5 pre-set soundshaper presets one of them being EQ - yep that sounds right in terms of the eq switch. I think the others gave a boost to the low end and the high end. Not sure about the others but it might be a contour switch which cuts mid frequency - which tends to work with slap or pick sounds. Essentially the switches should allow you to modify the sound quickly, then use the graphic to fine tune - best to experiment with what you like. Master Volume- bi-amp - bi amp will probablt split the high and low frequency part of your sound, it might be that you can route the the high frequency signal back through the combo nd the low end through a slave amp and bigger cab - say a 1x15. for bigger gigs! and the standby switch - generally this allows you to mute the sound of the amp when you turn it on which can avoid some fo the dramatic thumps. and on the back there is: Loud Speaker Output - Minimum 8ohm load - to connect an extension cab of at least 8ohm or more 2xEffects Loop - you can use this to add effects after the eq which should be quieter Mixer/Slave - connects to a mixer or slave to give you more oomph at gigs. It's a bargain for a combo - use it on its own for practices and quiet gigs and with the extension cab to give extra volume and better bass response.
