Same here, and a Fender Precision, and then find a convenient cellar and lock them all up there forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiophonic Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) As others have said, it's hard to beat the headroom and massive output transformers of classic Ampeg or HiWatt gear. Just add an 8 x 10 or 2 x 15 cab of your choice. The best live sound I've ever had has been with a on old Portaflex, a 70s SVT or (surprisingly) a pair of active 15" Yamaha PA cabs. If I was buying though, I'd probably think about something like Mr Bob Weston uses. It's not totally off the shelf,, but could be fairly easily assembled. Traynor pre > a pair of 400 W Crown power amps and Dietz cabs. Absolute thunder and that case is pure style.

elvis100 Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 wow. I like the idea of a pre amp with dedicated pro power amp section ( I could hide the power amps away and share them with my Hi-Fi speakers) and a nice Ampeg cabinet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
