I haven't tried it and I wouldn't. The speakers simply won't be up to the job and you risk damaging them. These days I play my lovely Tacoma
Thunderchief acoustic bass guitar and rarely touch the electric (a very early Ibanez Rickenbacker copy) but I have a cheap practice amp rated to about 30W. When I bought it it basically buzzed, farted and rattled so I replaced the driver with an 8" sub speaker from Jaycar and reenforced the case by adding extra braces and screws and silasticing down the front grill and a few other spots. Now it sounds about 1/4 decent and I've even played very small gigs with it. (One night I got to use a Mark Bass combo box and now
want one)
So, what sort of bass do you have?
