can you play bass guitar

The L1, as far as I could see is an integral powered speaker system and I think it has crossovers to send to each components it's convenient frecuences so I think you coul play a bass guitar on it because it has a sub woofer which could work well on it, of course, don't think you can play with it on stage with a heavy metal band, but taking it easy and playing softly, I think there shouldn't be so much problems to play with a bass in it.

I have used the compact as a bass guitar amp for a Big Band rehearsal and it was fine, you'll see and hear if you're overloading it. It was also fine (on its own, no sub) when the bass guitarist in my 6 piece jazz band put his instrument through it when he forgot his 100 watt GK combo, this added to the piano and two vocal mics already using it in a medium sized pub You need to add your own tone shaping. Treat is as a high quality 50 watt combo and you'll be OK. It won't thump your chest that much, but you can line out to PA or to a subwoofer. I use a domestic 50 watt 8 inch sub if I need a little extra thump.

I don't, but I would think that you could use a mixer like the one I use the Allen @ Heath ZED FX 10 & connect any guitar.They even have a newer version of my mixer designed for guitarist.I purchase all my equipment from Sweetwater & they have wonderful technical advisers. Jeanne

Yes. I went direct from DI into my mixer and from there into the L1. Worked perfectly fine.

Sure but if you're asking relative to playing thru the L1 Compact I would advise no- simply because the addl power required to make it carry along with component connectivity issues make it unadvisable.

Hello. You can use the pedal with guitar or bass. Just make sure that the ps-6 is first in the chain so it picks up the signal well.

You never really now how a pedal will react to different inputs- the guitar pedal may have some more recognizable and fun effects to play with, but who knows how heavy or dark the bass version might output- you stand to have some fun exploring with either one.

Yes it can. Actually That's how it was designed to work. Just clamp it to the headstock, turn it on and tune. I'm a bass player and that's how I tune.

As was mentioned before, this is not suitable for bass guitar, but if you want to stay in the Pignose family, they do have a bass amp, the "Pignose PB-30"

I've used it for bass a handful of times. It does okay for bass if you simply want to HEAR the instrument, but the tone circuit was not designed for bass. It doesn't really have the low end to cut through the mix. This is a fantastic practice amp for guitars, and the on-board effects allow for a lot of creativity in the tone. I'd say this thing can handle bass, but my advice is to buy this for guitar and buy an actual bass amp for bass. Perhaps the Orange Crush 25w bass amp, or a Hartke B300 is also a really nice option for small spaces and being on a budget.

Check the model before purchasing. The Snark SN-2 will NOT work consistently with a bass guitar. It will detect the A, D, and G strings, but the E-string is too low.

It would be good for vocals and mic'd acoustical instruments, but an electric bass guitar really should have it's own amp. Find an amp that's designed specifically for bass guitar. If you're on a tight budget, you might look for a used one on Craig's list, ebay, or at a pawn shop. Even Amazon sometimes has used or refurbished stuff.

Don't see why not. I know a lot of guys with guitar rigs that they use with bass and they all sound killer.

Its a great little amp but I don't think it will do well on the bass notes. The distortion is increased as the guitar volume knob goes up. I tried my bass on it and it works but I wouldn't use it as a bass amp even for practice. Perfect for your guitar though

well if can use for guitar, I don't see why won't work for bass guitar. yes it clear sound.. I'm very happy with it.

I can't say for certain since I don't play bass. But I would see why it would work. With the attack control you won't lose you how you play each note. If you want more of am explanation there is a youtube channel @eytschPi42 that did a review of this pedal.

Yes. But some guitar tuners don't work well on bass because they sometimes have trouble picking up the low notes.

Nope. You can't get double bass on this one eathier. It's a prong loaded pedal with a wire that runs to the reciver

Lead and rhythm yes. Not sure about bass as I don't play bass, so I just checked and the good news is YES. Have fun

Yes, you can. This what I was doing. There is 1/4 inch jack for microphone and you can plug in your guitar there. It works fine. If you plug in bass guitar, play at low volume or you may blow the speakers.

Yes. That's what I use it for. Great practice and busking amp, lets the bass player sit around the campfire with the guitarists. Very happy with it. Not gonna shake your kidneys, but has great punchy tone and goes a long time on a charge. Highly recommended.
