Recently got my dream bass guitar - a Rickenbacker 4003.
Today I was curious to test the Rick-o-sound (stereo jack that allows splitting the neck pickup and the bridge pickup to separate amps) and came up with a quick cable solution.
So I connected the neck pickup to the bass channel of my Kustom 250, and the bridge pickup to the guitar channel.
Boosted the bass on the bass channel and turned on a little bit of fuzz on the guitar channel, and man it sounds good!
Massive bass with a growling core that reacts very dynamically to playing style.
The bass channel is useful on its own, but the guitar channel is a little to non-bassy. But mixing both is great!

Just wanted to share my Kustom related happiness... Smile
