So I recently built a guitar isolation box within my closet of my studio (spare bedroom). It works amazingly well. When I play/record all I can hear is the pick hitting the strings. My wife says she can't even hear it in other parts of the house.
I would love to make something similar for a small bass amp (1x12 cab), but is this even possible? I have searched as much as I can on this forum as well as google and everyone talks about iso boxes for guitars, but not bass amps.
Is it even possible to build an effective iso box for a bass amp? Or is there just no getting rid of that low end rumble/vibration that feels like an earthquake. I don't need a lot of volume, just enough to record a decent tone.
I suppose I can go buy an cheap 1x12 bass combo on craigslist for $100 and put it in my guitar iso box and see what happens, but I suspect there will still be a lot of vibration that will upset the neighbours (I live in a townhouse with 1 shared wall).
I was hoping to solicit some insight from follow forum members before I go out and spend any money.
I apprentice any insights.
Regards,
Ray
