Can i put a bass guitar through this amp?
i have a Simmons DA50 Drum amp, I use it with my electronic drum set. so would this work to put a bass through? Why or why not?
The answer is that it might work, and here's why.
Your e-drum amp (like keyboard amps) is designed to take a much high input level than a guitar or bass amp. Electronic drums typically put out a Line Level signal (-10dBv). Guitars and basses put out much less than this.
So, the potential problem is that your amp may not have enough gain to get the bass loud enough for you. It will also probably be a pretty noisy signal (due to the improper gain structure in the signal chain).
That all said, try it. Start out with the volume low and see what you get.
