What's the Best Amp Ever?

Recommended Posts

Too big a question for too small a wallet and too short a lifetime.
I'm only playing bass for around 35 years now.
Wanted to try so much more but not everything was within reach.
Where others want the signal to be compressed, for me the bigger the dynamic range the better. I wanna be able to hear what the fingers are doing.

Walter Woods is a serious contestor.

GML2020 through a Crown XTi2 would be pretty amazing...

Ended up with Jule Monique and Bergantino IP112er, which combination leaves all others (Trace Elliot, Ampeg, Acoustic Image, Genz Benz etc.etc) far behind:

Hm, Hamburg is not that far from Groningen. Can you suggest some places where a heavy rock band is welcome? Then I could try to arrange a gig (or two B) ) at your home town. Would be nice!
