I've got wt 400 and 550 heads and a metro combo. I'm a big fan of the 90's /2000's world tour heads. I also like all valve heads and would say the eden heads are kind of valvelike in that they can be smooth,warm and "soft" sounding but as previously mentioned not in terms of distortion or natural overdrive. They also have very variable eq with lots of possibilities. As I say I'm a big fan and consider them to be one of the best solid state alternatives for people who are used to or prefer valve amps because they have very little "harshness" in the sound. As a bonus the wt 400/550 are compact and fit perfectly on a barefaced 10 stack.

In my house it was all beatles and Simon and garfunkel. I don't think my playing has been consciously influenced by McCartney but I expect it has to be in some way.

Don't have any problem with cover bands. Tribute bands I'm not keen on particularly tributes to bands who are active now. I've seen several tribute bands who play the songs of bands I'm very familiar with and have found it extremely boring and somewhat embarrassing really. I've also seen a tribute to a band I know almost nothing about and oddly really enjoyed it , was like a new band to me, with really good songs.

Basiccally I'd echo the previous posters. The cabs are fine for a rehearsal room situation where they're going to sit for years but very heavy and bulky for moving regularly. The head though heavy might be a good option from a performance/price point of view.

I don't know why, but it did. The eden wt 400 and 550 amps are very compact for their power rating and type and all kind of components are packed in close together, perhaps this has something to do with it.

I had a wt 400 which hummed constantly, the solution was to to turn around (rotate it around its central position) the toroidal transformer , apparently the change in the magnetic field ( I think) stopped the hum. The problem may well be something else but it's worth considering.

I think you can say that most basses work fine for most styles, I found the ovation magnum bad for slap and the status eclipse bad for reggae though.

There doesn't seem to be an obvious frequency gap to me so I'd guess the tweeter is pretty well matched, it sounds consistent to me.

I've got a 110 t and a straight up 110. For me the 110 t takes the slap sound from being kind of ok to being a proper slap sound. Other than that it doesn't make much difference to me. I suspect the 110 has a high enough responce for most bass sounds anyway. I think it's quite a subtle tweeter/hi fi component , Not a night and day difference even when slapping and popping. When playing a cd through it it is very noticeable though. Personally I think it's only a worthwhile addition if you're into the treblier bass sounds.

Bought a Shergold bass from Ash, everything went well, communications were great and everything was straightforward. Top basschatter

Out of the two cabinets you are looking at I would probably go for the 1 12 , the low frequency response of 65 hz on the 2 10 concerns me a bit. I know that the lowest frequencies are not very present but in my view the 65 to 100 range is fairly important and I'd be concerned that the 2 10 might be weak in this area. The way I interpret the pretty incomplete specs on the warwick site is that the 2 10 is probably louder but maybe a bit low end shy. For your needs I would go for the 12. Of course other cabs are available.

Great, I appreciate this. Thanks

Eden wt amps also have a 3 band parametric eq , its a great feature to have IMO.

I bought an ovation magnum about 10 years ago off a cool hippyish guy. He demo'd it by first selecting just the neck pickup (huge quad coil right at the neck) turning down the tone knob fully and then turning the bottom half of his trace 12 band graphic up full and the top half completely down and thrashing the low notes. He then selected just the bridge pick up (placed right at the bridge )turned tone fully up, set the lower half of the graphic to the bottom and dimed the top half. He then thrashed the highest notes on the bass. It sounded like an earthquake followed by an accident in a glass factory. actually an awesome bass.
