A good rig for EUB or Fretless?

[attachment=105489:P1000846_edited.JPG][attachment=105489:P1000846_edited.JPG]I thought this might a good opportunity to show the rig I`m now using, comprising; a EA Micro 550w amp, 2x Hartke HX 112 300w cabs these cabs have both switchable horns and selectable between 4 and 8ohms, they also weigh a meagre 28Ibs each, the sound from this set up is warm ,clear, focused but with a controlled brightness, might be worth trying!

sorry but there sould be only one photo, pressed button twice, must be me age!!

Great rig. I've always wanted to try the Hartke 12".
I use 2x Euphonic audio 1x12s and love a modular setup.

Hi Geoff, before this rig I used to use an EA VL 208 and a 15" matching cab !,great sound but it was like hauling lead weights around!

[geoffbassist]

Ive always wanted to try the VL208 as the upright guys on talkbass rave about it. I just cant be bothered to go heavier than I am at the moment.

Still a fan of EA (doubler in my case) but with a BF Midget. Anyone else using the Midget for upright?

I've got a Markbass LM-II and an EA Wizzy 10, which suits me just fine. I can sling the wizzy on my back, and wheel the bass to gigs. I can get a nice "my bass but louder" tone through it, but tends to need tweaking for the room. Surprising volume, too - can even cope with big band gigs. Would love to give the doubler a go at some point though, it looks like a great little amp.

With gear in general I try to have as little involvement as possible. I like to find a setup (pickup, strings, amp) that works for me and then stick with it. More time to focus on playing, and I'm chronically strapped for cash. Doesn't stop me nosing around a bit and considering alternatives though, I'm only human!

My view entirely. Doubler + Midget + Full Circle + Spiro Weichs + Armstrong mag p/u for emergencies. All I need now is talent.
