uk_lefty Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Currently using an Ashdown Toneman combo bought brand new. Frighteningly I think this list might be long... Been playing 18yrs: All combos Cheap practice beginner combo 100watt torque Massive old Peavey, loud as hell Marshall bass state B150 Brand new torque 100watt Vox escort 50 lead/ bass Carlsboro stingray (??) Combo. Was massive and loud Warwick sweet 15 No amp for a while and barely playing... Hartke kickback 15 Gallien Krueger backline 110 Trace Elliot rig now owned by The Greek Ashdown toneman bought brand new What have I learned?? There's great deals on second hand amps all the time. Test second hand amps properly, the Marshall had great tone but was weirdly quiet. I love the sound of Hartke, Trace and GK amps, quite like a Marshall or Warwick. Don't sell a classic vox amp, no matter what. You will always think something else is what you actually need... I now use a hartke pre amp pedal in to my ashdown. Having time on my hands recently I've been lusting after new basses and amps, but really I have everything I need for my band. Might not stop me buying a nice hartke if a good deal comes up though. Then I'll have my eye out for a Gk... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

la bam Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Not so many for me. Usually average about 2 per band I'm in. In order of owning. 1. 60w gorilla guitar amp. (starting out). 2. Carlsbro Stingray amp head and 15 cab. (for my first band with friends). 3. PA system. Tek cabs and studiomaster powered mixer. I used to stand behind the pa and listen for my bass through the back of the speakers as I couldnt afford an amp and having a pa got me in the band! 4. Trace Elliot commando combo. Great unit for my first good band. Heavy, but reliable and had a decent enough sound no matter what eq you dialled in - great as I didn't know what I was doing back then. 5.Ashdown mag 300 and 4x10 deep cab. I never liked the sound, but the band loved it. 6. Ashdown Superfly and 1x15 mini and 4x8 mini cabs. Really under powered. Not impressed at all. Also you couldnt turn the compression off and it hissed. 7. Line 6 lowdown 300. Decent enough, but in all honesty only small backline sound. 8. Mark bass lm3 and 210 traveller. Lovely little set up. Expensive though. 9. Genz Benz 500 combo - nowhere near the volume of the mark bass and a real synthetic unwarm sound. 10. Ashdown abm 500 evo 2 15 combo and 2x10 ext cab. Love it. Lightweight for what it is and great sound and loads of headroom. Edited January 11, 2017 by la bam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
