Guitar running through a bass amp?

<< < (4/4)

--- Quote from: DynamiteKid ---I disagree. A lot of an acoustic's sound is based on the strings, and the bass strings are much louder because they're simply bigger, so having more bass coming through your amp when you're getting more bass anyway might be unhelpful.

yeah, I didn't mean have the acoustic through the bass amp, but the electric one.

Thrillho:
Ohhh, well in that case you should be fine, as long as the amp's decent otherwise it'll sound like crap.

Merkava:
Didn't Pavement use a guitar-bass-amp setup because they couldn't afford a seperate bass or bass player? I think I read it in the liner notes for Slanted & Enchanted.

ALoveSupreme:
I dunno anything about the pavement recording, but (to add unnecessary dynamic to this topic), I have just recently beeing seeing dudes playing a rig that I believe consists of a guitar running through an octave pedal, bringing it down to bass range, through a bass amp.  It could be a baritone electric, but I believe it's a standard guitar.  Anyone know anything about this?

Well the octave pedal will change the signal to a bass frequency, but I'm not sure if that will have any change on its effect on a bass amp than still just playing a guitar through it, because it is still a guitar after all.
