AMPEG Portaflex PF-50T & PF112HFL - 4 Basses Comparison

[@4headgaming448]

Fantastic video! Seriously, thank you for your coverage of this amp.

[@ObraBass]

Thank's for watching!

[@TheRetroBassist]

Instant '70s vibe using a pick with the 1968 Precision through the Portaflex, I dig it 🔥🤘🏽🔥

[@Doodlebug1996]

I loooooooove me a black P with maple fretboard.

[@strikninestudios6885]

Thanks for putting this together. The PF-50T has to be one of (if not the) best sounding amps on the market. You just can't get the warm saturated tube tone from an emulator or solid state amp. While a little on the expensive end, it's worth every penny. Also great playing man.

Thanks 👍

Best P bass chanel, keep it up, love when you rock

[@ObraBass]

Thanks 👍

[@viking364]

WOW ! What a fantastic exciting video , the combination of the ampeg rig with the 68 precision is awesome.

[@ObraBass]

Thanks!

[@bluesmanshoes]

Your 68 is just killing every time! Also nice upgrade in producion quality. Hope that wasnt to much much extra work or $$. Thanks!

[@ObraBass]

Thank You. It will be difficult to maintain this standard in the future...

[@Cake_Doge]

Dream rig

[@jarthurk]

Gosh darn this man makes every bass sound GOOD

[@gutirodrig]

Best review..Ampeg should pay you

[@ObraBass]

Thank You! It would be great 😊

[@jonathanchevallier7046]

Very nice collection of bass. Thank you for this video. ;-)

[@ObraBass]

Thank You for watching (basses are not all mine)

[@5000wattbasemachine]

Great tones and playing!! Have you played the 20watt version of this amp and if so do the sound the same? Also would the pf 50 something you would bring to a small gig?

[@ObraBass]

Thanks. I haven't played 20watt version. Regarding a gig with t50, that's what interested me at the first place. I found it loud enough for a small gig (jazzy type), but not a loud rock type gig with a loud guitarist or a loud drummer. I read everything about it that could be found at internet, but at the end You need to try it yourself. For someone it works just fine while for others (like myself) it's just not loud enough.

[@strikninestudios6885]

Awesome bro!

[@ObraBass]

[@Lecretois]

[@Bleeder9000]

‘78 P all day, every day.

[@lqr824]

I listen to your vids because they just sound so good, many thanks for the work. I already know pretty much everything your demonstrating but it's just great to hear a really good player playing really good basslines to decent backing tracks and nice amps. I drive a '75 P, '79 SR, and from watching this video maybe I have to check out Sandbergs! PF-50T too. Also an Alembic Mark King 5, '10 CS J, '14 SR5HS, '81 T-40, some Ric, and an SRF705. I live in an apartment and frankly play via my GT-1000 a lot. If I had a house I'd have a '66 B-15, a big Ampeg head on an 810, and something modern (WT800?) on a Glockenklang 410+115...

[@ObraBass]

Thanks for nice words, I appreciate it. Seems like You have some nice gear to. Try to enjoy it as much as You can 👍.

[@SlobodanStojanovic]

👌

[@ForlaniMota]

I don't know why this has not more views, great playing, great sound, great video concepts and quality. Keep it up, you're a blessing for the rock bass community! Apart from that, I got my very own black / maple bass collection and dig yours lol. Subbed!

[@christopherfidler3019]

get all your basses in black and the wife will never know the difference!

[@beeamadeusfox]

Its rare to watch a video of a Bass player illustrating a cross section of playing styles and tonal variation from different instruments. The playing is top notch. I also own a PF50T which I will short be matching with its Portaflex cab and this has convinced me further that I am in the right direction of travel. Is the Fender precision 68' and originalor a reissue and have you set it up with flats. I really love the tone. Really enjoyed the video, many thanks and best seasonal regards!

[@ObraBass]

Thank You so much. I'm glad You enjoyed the video. Precision 68 is all original from 1968 set with TI flats.

[@barackmycat9448]

Hard to beat a P bass and an Ampeg. imo

[@cesarbounce5458]

Hello, can you give me the 1989 Music Man Stingray? 😭

[@ObraBass]

It's not mine unfortunately

[@compucorder64]

Something I don't get about the Portflex cabs, what's the major difference between the HE cabs and the HLF/LF. Is it that the HE is an extension cab, and doesn't have the flip top. Or is it to do with whether it's ported or not? I'm wondering if this 112HLF is ported or not, because I like the size and weight but would like a flip-top to go along with my PF-20T.

[@ObraBass]

HLF is ported, HE is closed, also HLF is much heavier. Both have a tweeter I think. You can found a lot of data at TalkBass forum.

[@bassspotter8891]

Fantastican video Obrade! Jedina sugestija je da je miks (delovi sa celim orkstrom) za slusanje dobar ali mislim da je bass trebao da bude malo izrazeniji jel ipak, njegov ton je ovde najbitniji. U nekim delovima se jedva cuje od gitare. Veliki pozdrav iz Toronta!

[@ObraBass]

Hvala.

[@MrShopvideo]

wish the bass was louder...

[@ObraBass]

There is a solo bass from 2:50. Also, it's not mixed for mobile phones 🙂
