Where should I claim my winnings?

£458.99

I love this amp but I think there are definitely some issues with the QC or general build quality based on this and other threads. The first one I had went back because there was a loose wire that was getting stuck in the fan which actually caused the fan to start burning itself out. I've also had issues with the light but it's fine 90% of the time. I once plugged mine in and something went 'pop' and I could smell burning - I plugged it back in and it wouldn't work, I changed the fuse but it didn't make a difference, then I plugged it back in about an hour later and it was working 100% fine. Not sure what's going with it but that was quite a few months ago and it's still going strong. Sounds great though, wouldn't change it for anything.

17-3-3 Must do better...

Oddly, I quite like the Zender bass but I hate Corvettes

2A is a lot and you should easily be able to daisy-chain 5 pedals with that much power. You shouldn't get any mains hum but if you do then devices such as a 'virtual battery' isolate the power for that particular problem pedal and eliminate the hum.

17-[b]1[/b]-2 Who is the 1?!?!?!?!?!?! Shame on thee...

I'll only sell my SSI if I get into some real financial trouble, and that would be after selling a lot of other stuff. It's not my main bass anymore but I still love it. I've been through a few Warwicks, not nearly as many as some though... I hate the Warwick marketing - personally I feel it 'cheapens' the brand.

Check them out.

I was lucky (very) and got a £1000 cab for £400 new, I wouldn't change it for anything. I've been through more than my fair share of gear but this cab is a keeper. I've changed amps 3 times since having the cab, and I may change 3 times more, but the cab will stay. As it happens, I'm very happy with my setup and can't see that I'll change any of it for a long time. This is the first time in ages that I've had very low GAS for anything.

More interest than I expected! Vote for :brow:!! Poll added...

Massively depends on your budget. If you've got a lot to spend then you could look at the smaller Mark Bass combos, for a lot less the small Roland amps are really good. Headphones... ? I use a pair of Sennheiser HD280 Pro cans for everything and they're great.

You could replace those drivers for much 'better' modern ones relatively cheaply yourself, or you could ask MatAmp to do it for a premium and have the hassle of getting it to them, waiting for them to do it, and picking it up... £150 for the cab, £100 for 2 15" Fane Sovereign drivers (example) = 800W beasty. Good job it's on casters, looks like it weighs a tonne! Also looks proper cool
