In this video, my friend @RhettShull and I talk all about amplifiers. We discuss the history and technology of tube and solid state bass amps, and compare them while talking about their pros and cons and how they are different from guitar amps. By the end of this video, a bass player should have a thorough understanding of these types of amps and be able to make an informed decision. The bass amps in this video are the Ampeg V4B and the Thunderfunk 750A with Aguilar Cabinets.
