Amp Modeling Box That Does Both Guitar and Bass?

[Robertt8]

I thought I'd seen a cheap Amp Modeling box that did both sounds for Bass and Guitar. Do the Behringer V-Amp or J-Station or one of those do both...or am I crazy? Anything under $200?

J-Station has a few bass amp models - perhaps aimed more at the AC/DC guitar-through-a-bass-amp player than a bassist, but I've used them on keyboard bass patches and they've sounded pretty good.

Behringer Bass V-Amp have a few guitarmodels, I think...
As far as I remember, it has tons of bass-amps, a few guitar-amps, and some other "all-round" kind of amps...

I bought a J Station a couple of days ago.I'll let you know how the bass amp sims sound when it gets here friday.

If you want to go really, really cheap. you could try this

Kind of grainy on Bass guitar though.

Not that great sounding either.

But it sure is cheap!



Excuse me whilst I don my flame retardant suit.

DAFDUC: Thanks...

DIMEBAG: Yeah, thanks, it looks like The Behringer Bass V-Amp looks good for me. Has anyone else used it?

KRAMER: You're going to have to let me know what you think about it. are you planning on using if for guitar or bass or both?

MAESTRO_DMC: I want to go cheap, but not crappy. If it's grainy on bass, then it's not really my bag. I've already got grainy...but thanks!

If you want guitar AND bass, Id go for the guitar V-amp2. You can get some pretty decent bass sounds out of it, clean and distorted or with flanger etc.
This is a better option imo cause you'll usually be better of with more guitar effects and less bass effects then the other way around.

All I know is this. DON'T GET the GNX series. I got a GNX3, and it makes some pretty nice amp sounds, but its an unreliable piece of junk. Digitech sux. IMO

7evin - you may have been unlucky. I bought a GNX 3 18 months ago - our guitarist has it now, uses it virtually every day, we've gigged with it, recorded with it, so far, touch wood, utterly reliable.

Tech21's PSA-1 has some good patches for bass.
If you are patient you might be able to pick one up on ebay.
