Hi all

I'm looking into buying some Aguilar gear, a tonehammer 350 and 2x sl112

The idea is that I will keep one can at home and one cab at the practice room. Then just take the head in its bag between times.

I was just wondering would a the 350 and a single sl112 rated at 175watts be loud enough for a practice? And even some smaller gigs. For bigger gigs I would take both cabs.

Anyone have any experience with this set up?

Thanks in advance

Depends on how loud your drummer and the rest of the band are.

I used to get away with about 120W through 12". Our new drummer is STOOPID loud and I struggle with a Barefaced Compact with a Harte LH500 (not a quiet amp) :(

As above really. Also depends on how clean you want your sound as well. The Tonehammers are great but to use them at high volume with a very clean sound you need full power and more speakers. I used my TH350 with a Barefaced Super12T and for regular venues master volume on just more than 9 o`clock, but I do use a fairly gainy sound, and the S12T is a very efficient cab.

That said, I`ve used a good few 1x15 100 or 150 watt combos as provided rigs and they`ve been plenty loud enough for stage monitoring, and in a few places there was no FOH and they coped. Think this will depend on the drummer.

Get the TH500 to make sure.

I couldn't get away with a single..but you might be able to.

The beauty of those cabs..apart from being very nice sounding cabs
is that they are light.

If you want lighter still..and IMO, a better cab suited to the TH..get TKS S112's
as they are 10kgs each...!!!

It's all down to the cab.

I run my TH350 through a Barefaced Midget (G1) with no tweeter. I play in a 2-guitar covers band with a loud drummer. The TH350 has yet to break into a sweat.

With the right 1x12 you don't need anything like 350W.
