   I looked at a fender bassman 25 and a rumble 25 and they both were great but this just had the right price tag on it. I would not buy this amp again because i would upgrade it for something bigger. Tis still a great amp for beginners and its wor...(more)

6. Ernie Ball/Music Man Super Slinky ·
   I used the strings that came with my bass and they were ok but these are a lot better. Ernie Ball makes great products and their strings are not left out. I love the brightness of these strings and there is nothing bad i can say.

7. Boss GT-6B ·
   This is not mine but my teacher lets me use it. Use it every time i get a chance. I would definantly buy this if i had the money. This is perfect and could not get much better. Love the red color but it hurts when you step on the knobs.

12. Dookie by Green Day ·
    I never really cared for Green Day's American Idiot (mainly it was too "studio made") but this blows it out of the water. The bass is not what i expected, simple yet you can tap your foot to it.
