Witch Hazel

i did think of the Bassman when i tried it! i kind of assumed the Bassman was a good guitar amp since it wasn't a very good bass amp, but perhaps it's just a matter of taste - i do prefer a more mid-heavy guitar tone without much treble, so it makes sense a bass amp would work for that. (it might also help that the Barefaced One10 cab has a fairly high treble roll-off for a bass cab.) Ampeg doesn't seem to be the "in thing" for bass at the moment (feels like everyone's moved on to Mesa and MarkBass) but i really like mine.

i'm not really a guitar player, but i sometimes pretend to be one, so i thought i'd drop by and say hi. it's been a long time since i played, but recently i picked up a Yamaha Pacifica 120H to noodle around on and i've been enjoying it more than i thought i would. i've even been learning a few new things - although that's not saying much since i could barely play before! maybe this time i'll take it a bit more seriously... obligatory gear photo: i wasn't expecting a guitar through a bass rig to work too well, but with a bit of dirt on it has a lovely crunchy tone, and i think i actually prefer it to a friend's Laney PL100 2x12 that i've been borrowing. when i'm not playing guitar i also play electric bass (badly), fiddle and Irish flute. (note to self: try the electric fiddle through the bass amp...)
