Bass Guitar with Vypyr Pro?

I know the Vypyr VIP amps claim you can plugin a Bass guitar and it will automatically set "sensitivity" appropriately. Has anyone been using a Bass guitar with the Vypyr Pro? If so, what are the settings that might need to be adjusted?

The VYPYR Pro has the Fender Baseman model ( BSMN ). Setting it up should be about the same as the other amp models, However I have never used the BSMN.
Also try going to Peveys Facebook site for help.

the VIP speaker is designed to handle a bass ... not sure the Stephens Tru-Sonic speaker in the Vypyr Pro will work that well.

Good to know, thanks! I was wondering though, is it a powerful amp or something that's appropriate for indoors use? Because I was looking at these flats in Berlin as I'll be sent there by my company this year, and I'd like to keep playing music there (I play both the standard and bass guitar, I've got an electric and an acoustic guitar, and an electric bass, if that helps) without being thrown out by the neighbors!

VIP's and Vypyr Pro both have headphone jacks ... either can be played at bedroom level ... or they can get LOUD if you want to!

i have a VIP1 in my livingroom hidden on the side of my couch, and a Vypyr Pro downstairs in my game room. :D

Thanks, great, I'm getting a Vypyr Pro then, to practice at home and to play at amateur concerts!

the Power Sponge on the Pro can be adjusted from 1W to 100W ... should work out good for you.
