Hi !

I tried a Ampeg B200R Rocket bass amp I really liked but I'd like to try other amps in that price range and style (classic sounding hybrid amps). Any ideas what to try ?

Eden Nemesis RS115 Combo, the edge knob makes a world of difference. I have owned the Ampeg B200R and the RS 115 below.

Those were discontinued and replaced what looks like these:

I think you could sorta compare it to a Fender TV Fifteen or Mesa Walkabout Scout 15 combo.

If it's gotta have a tube, the Fender TV 15 looks like a good comaprable.
Rumor has it Ampeg is coming out with a couple of new Hybrid flip tops/portaflexes in January when the B-15 is officially launched.
