I think it's better than an Ampeg SVT. Louder, and can get SVT sounds too. You can get clean tube sounds if look hard enough.

[@chriscockey7649]

If you bias it cold. Simple on the back control.

[@chriscockey7649]

I leave mine normal/middle.

Vintage channel is very warm. Put it in overdrive channel but without the overdrive blend in. Get the mids at 8,5 and level at 3,5 and you will make it sound like pure thunder. That’s where the attack is.. the full 300 watts of it especially with a pick. Loads of headroom and the mids will be in your face. It sounds way to much right in front of the cab but a little from 4 meters onward, the sound will be there perfectly in the mix.

4:12 holyyyyy heellllllllll ALL of those speakers😂😂😂

[@timgonzales2891]

I saw gwar once. It was fun as shit. I think i was there for someone else, but left stoked on gwar

Doesn't Mike Dirnt from Green Day swear by these Super Bassmans?

[@charliepresley]

He actually made it with Fender.

[@daviddreadfull]

Sure does, also Matt Freeman and a lot of other artists. IMO it's slowly becoming a new standard for professional bass players.

[@1thess523]

I've played the solid state version and that thing sounds really sweet as well

[@steelesaldutti]

Yes - he worked with fender on his development

[@toelife2112]

Mike Dirnt actually helped design the Super Bassman

[@themigwel6185]

It sounds really good. Looks dope too, it’s a bonus.

[@Farold_Haltermeyer]

I love Michael's work...Kepone are Still in my top 5 after all these years, he is a PHENOMENAL bassist, singer and songwriter. And an awesome person to boot! Can we get more from him? 😊

[@hydr0p0nic]

Yeah the fact he's a woke liberal though...

[@TheBassChannel]

Next video is Mike talking about his favorite GWAR and Kepone bass lines.

[@benfranky]

@@hydr0p0nic SO the guy has difiernt opinions than you. The horror. Disclaimer: I am not agreeing with all their views either.

[@hydr0p0nic]

@@benfranky yeah that's fine and all but it's fucking GWAR!

[@jw112mail]

@@hydr0p0nic What does "woke liberal" mean to you? When googled the definition seems to be: "issues with reference to racial and social justice". That is a bad thing to you? I'm honestly asking. Not trying to be a troll...

[@HollstoneTV]

[@bobs1540]

Fender amps kick ass

[@alex-jamesshipman7102]

[@mrkill-dj6dh]

Gwar shows look a lot less messy these days!

[@theberserkerblothar8548]

We use more spew than we ever did though. Goes up a bit every year it seems.

[@nunoharris]

Hi. Whats the brand of your strings? Thanks

[@turcitox]

Going brrt

[@melvinatkins998]

Guitars don’t work Gwar!…. Gwar works them!…. Intergalactic space demons from Hell choose you!….
