That’s the first thing i caught on was the depth and fullness of his voice! He knows how to infuse quality in sound electronically speaking! Lol awesome!

I like the fact Dave Boonshoft really knows his stuff! Aguilar products are amazing!!!

Disappointed he didn't play a music Man

I’m not a bass player but I can confirm that these products are sick. I’ve seen like a dozen bands, local and big, use this stuff and I’m consistently floored at how good their tone is.

With the band's you've heard, do the db751s how a good low end if needed. I've heard some people say it's a one truck pony with good mids.

The DB751 into a DB410 is just a glorious sound on stage. I love mine!

Can you get a decent low end with your combination?

I like this guy. Might be because he's from my neck of the woods, but he comes off sincere and straightforward. I'll give aguilar another look!

Do me one favour before you bite the bullet play an open E note and listen for clarity or lack of for rock forget it, unless your a player who plays like a lead guitarist with many short notes. Even in the intro on this clip it lacks clarity, its wooly and abrasive

@@anthonyalgeri5469 16:08 Boonshoft pretty much says as much about the Tone Hammer series; it's designed to be as warm as they could make it, and it never quite cleans up, there's always a little edge to it. The AG series is a much cleaner sound, but IMO pretty boring, you can get that sound from any bass amp and half the PAs in the store.

Great vid guys. This type of insight really bring the products alive. As a 50 something bass player tired of lugging heavy gear in and out of clubs, I think I might have found my next upgrade purchase.

Aguilar dont fuxk around with the signal path for sure! Very impressed by the seriousness and interest for doing something right in this video. Back in the day a handshake was a promise, and a promise was something you didnt break - Thats the vibe im getting from this video. It was like sitting with my grandpa and watching him behave the way he was, i have to play one of these some day because i truly admire companies that are true to the cause of making things as good as they can.

In 1995, Boonshot and Alex Aguilar formed Aguilar Amplification when they created the DB 680 preamp.

I've got the Tone Hammer DI, The Agro & The Octamizer. They're all so good.

I’m loving the Aguilar products (TH 700 / 2 x10 cab w/ phenolic tweeter & several pedals including the DI Box) and yes Dave Boonshoft tells it like it is- regardless of who is interviewing him.

Mozzy from "White Collar" - who knew. Great video as always. Thanks guys.

The Barney Miller theme song! WOOT!

Their customer support is insanely good too very musical lightweight amps made in the USA I love the tone hammer series

Nice to meet Dave!

Thanks to Dave for doing this comparison, as it is a great opportunity to show the breadth of Aguilar's amp products. It would have been better with a more knowledgeable host, familiar with the product line.

I use an all tube pre, The Ampeg SVP along with a heavy QSC 825 watt powerr amp. Sometimes a lighter amp might be nice though...

Gonna DEFINITELY!! Try out these Aguilar Amps & Speakers!! I primarily use my MM Bongo & a Custom PJ Bass + an ‘81 Ibanez 924 DS..(along with a Custom 6 strg Bass built especially for me!..👍🏾🤣) I 🇺🇸reside in Japan so I sure hope to be able to test drive those Aguilar Amps in 🇯🇵 ⛩🗼

I like his cap as well

Nice! The bassline to “doin it to death (funky good time)”. Those Fred Thomas baselines.

why on gods earth did they send an intern to this legend? i cant believe this. So when randall smith would show up the cleaning lady would interview him?

I laughed at the SVT in new York comments- I used to hail Checker Cabs with my 95 pound, 1969 SVT head, and 150 pound 'flatback' cabinet, at the curb! The cabinet would lay down where the jump seats were, and the head on the seat. Me next to it. Of course, that got real tired- and Checker cabs, became extinct soon after as well. I got an Ampeg B-410 combo after seeing Anthony Jackson using one. Then, a Sunn, and my final N.Y. gig amp was a GK 400 RB and various smaller cabinets. I left for out west 31 years ago I just used an Aguilar SL115 on a gig- nice piece of gear!

keeps pushing the pedal at the end. :-) good job Caleb!

Subscribed from this. Thank you So much

Rocking a TH700 with two SL115 cabs… just tremendous results and NO TWEETERS OR HORNS ..

When Lee coughed I automatically looked at the date the video was published 💀 ...was he patient zero? 🤔

I've had a DB751 on back order 6 months now.. can you ask Dave when they'll be back in stock?

Help me out I can't find the video demo of the DCB-M pickups on their website. He referenced it around 30:00

I like the fact that Caleb is one of my countrymen. Sadly, I play an ABM series 1 - weighs a ton but sounds great

I'd like to see a comparison between GK and Aguilar

I was going to pick up the little 350 Tone Hammer till I saw it was only 175 watts @ 8 ohms. That ain't shit when you buy a combo for way less money with twice as much power. For $600 I would expect a little more kick.

I think the interviewer did a great job.

Could you do "All About The Electric Upright Bass"? ;-)

Two seconds of playing?

even his voice have a good tone

I can't believe dave went over there to have the captain abandon him. Then have the C team come in for the product overview..... painful to watch

The best bass amps were SWR, however some big corporate guitar company bought them, then did nothing with them. What a shame.

I think that guitar company you speak off initially developed and promoted the brand (poorly, in my opinion; the flagship store in my country only had Workingman combos, which is a huge shame), and then took the intellectual properities from SWR and applied them to their own Bassman Amps. I think..

I see I've been playing the Barney Miller theme wrong. 13:40

Barney Miller theme! Yes

Most original SVT heads or SVT Classic heads are actually 95 pounds

Now for a studio musician you can probably walk 5 blocks

I call BS. The real tube tone is in a proper output transformer and power tubes. For a professional to claim the power section is just to make it louder is flat out embarrassing. A lie to sell something that's cheaper to make.

I have the Orange terror bass which has a tube preamp and class d power amp and I also have the Ampeg pf50t all tube amp...I know they’re different brands, but the difference in sound is insane!!
