New amp day!

[Highfox]

Decided to sell off the Aggie Th500 I had been using mainly as a stand by.

I have been using the Rumble 500 and (sometimes) a 210 extension cab for most of my gigs the past few years..decided I like the slightly overdriven and compressed sound I get from the Rumble.. ..anyway long story short a Bassman 500 was going locally and managed to pick it up for the same price I sold my TH for. Happy camper with the Bassman so far and might trade a spare cab I have to stick a 115 or another 210 under what I have now and keep the Rumble 500 combo for smaller gigs or when I can’t be bothered to shift the other stuff.

Looks cool, sounds great!

It's the Hybrid version not the all tube Less than 8kg's. I'd go for the all tube I think if I didn't have to move it too much.

Nice one. So does this have a tube pre and solid state power stage? Excuse my ignorance 🙄

That's it exactly DD.

You really need a Fender Bassman Neo 410 to sit that on.

But there again I would 😁

How does the Bassman OD compare to the Rumble?

Hi. I haven't had a chance to use it with the band yet! But I think it will work very nicely, you can blend in the clean and tube driven channel so you can lose no lowend.

I never used the OD on the rumble, I had a Darkglass vintage tube pedal that I used to dirty it up when needed.

I'm really liking the Vintage channel on the bassman atm, it very very nice pleased wit it so far.
