Jamesemt Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Lol sorry, this could get quite long... I've got some backpay due from student loans (turns out I've overpaid the loan by £600, only taken me 6 years...). I currently own an Ashdown Superfly and a Peavey 115. I'm just in the process of forming my first band (been away for 10 years...). I stress my back at work, so am well aware of what carrying excessive weight can do to your back. So I want a cab as light weight as possible (rehearsal room has stairs!). To complicate matters, I was going to pay some finance off with the £600 (HD camcorder if anyone's interested), meaning I can take some gear on tick (only finance we have, paid the cars/cards/loans off last year ). So my dilemna is this: I really like the look of the GK Neo gear, but it is all 8 Ohms. So if I went the GK route, I'd either have to get 4x112s (thinking of the weight...), get 2x112s but only be able to use 2/3rds of the wattage of the Superfly or buy 2x112s plus a head...but I don't want to spend that much on tick!! Second option is to get a pair of custom made 112s from the bass merchant and pay cash. Only problem is they don't look as sexy (yes, I'm a tart ). Also, what if (when) I decide to get a new head? I'd be restricted to 4 Ohm heads?? Planning on playing pop-rock with the band. I must confess that as I've been away for so long, I doubt I'd be able to tell the difference with boutique manufacturers... I'm a bit confused!! What would you do?
