What do you use now? And what about it is not working for you?

If you want to go the combo route, I'd consider a Carvin micro with extension cab in case you need it.

However, since you are playing larger venues, you'd probably be better off going with a used head/ cab setup. Personally, I'd go with something along the lines of a GK RB 700 with a 4 x 10, and save for a second 4 x 10.

If you could tell us what kind of PA and monitor setup you have, it will help us give you a better answer. For example, if your band has in-ear monitors and a geat PA, you don't need a lot of amp. But, no PA support for bass--and you'll need a much larger rig.

Phillip,
We really can't help much until you fill out your user profile here on Talkbass. We need to know what amp you currently have, what kind of music you play, and what basses you use. Thanks
