What Amp Combo do you own?

[Marko5657]

Only bass combo I ever had was a TC Electronic BG500 115. Gigged it steadily and loved it.

[B String]

At the moment I have a Markbass 121P, an SWR Workingmans 10,(old) and a GK mb200. (very old)

When I use my Sansamp Paradriver as a preamp, bypassing the pre in the SWR, it sounds really really really good.
The Markbass 121P is just a flat out champion

Still loving my 83 Bassman 20!

I use a GK MB210. For the price it can't be beat. Nice tone and plenty of power. Light weight . Great for small to medium size venues. For larger venues you have the ability to add another cabinet.

Fender Bassman TV15
Fender Bassmab TV210
Ampeg BA300
Acoustic B100 (practice amp)

[Catanova]

Late 80's Peavey Combo 300. Loud as hell, versatile, but weighs a ton. Built like a tank and it just keeps going...

Late 60's Contessa CA-15 Mini Bass. All tube with 12" speaker. Not terribly loud, but has great tone. Has required many repairs over the years.

Those were cool amps. Carvin made them for one, maybe two years?

I have owned an Ampeg BA115HP since '05. I like the amp, I like the tone but it's seriously under powered and at 85 awkward pounds it's not worth giging with. It's just a practice amp in my house now.

The Bassman 150 (single 12) was also a VERY nice combo at the price.

A GK MB210 now. Does a very nice job. And... would you believe... I still have my first combo amp (well, amp of any kind, really)... a Kasino Lounge! A bad 15" speaker and about a 40w amp. Weighs like 80lbs! Strictly for practice, of course.

Carvin Cyclops combo cab (2x8 w tweeter, 1x15), bi-amped with new Carvin BX1500 head

Ampeg B-15N, Ampeg B-100, Carvin PB-100 x10

[bass4worship]

Had a few of them but only loved my Markbass 112 combo.

Fender M80 Bass.

Sure, its a legacy piece of gear, but it seems bulletproof. And yeah, its a bit on the heavy side, but it just plain works for me. It'll fit in the trunk of the car, and I can lift it into there by myself. I added a Fender BXR-115 cab under it for gigging, and the 2 15s at a rated 160w will work for a smaller venue if the guitards and drummer mind their manners.

[Sav'nBass]

SWR La-15. That was the first amp I bought in 20 years back in 2000. I stlll have it. I used to leave it at our rehearsal space but now it is here in the house..

[jackcassruce]

One of the "bad " Marshall's , no problems yet after a year

[soulman969]

I use a GK MB112 for rehearsals, smaller gigs, and the studio when I want a tight punchy tone and my tc electronic BG250 1x15" when I want more bottom end and a more vintage tonality.

They can handle just about anything I need a combo for and I think they're two of the best bargains in the mid level combo market out there. In either case you can run direct to a FOH PA or to an additional powered cabinet if they gig calls for it.

Fender Bassman 250x210 -- love it.

[Versatek6]

Trace Elliot 715X (385w/1x15+h)

Traynor Dynabass DB-50 (50w/1x10)

[HolmeBass]

Eden Metro - heavy, but sounds good, although not terribly loud.
Roland Cube-60 Bass - Ancient, I bought it used in 1986, had to put a new speaker in it but it's still kicking. Not a great sounding amp, benefits from use of SA BDDI.

[baileyboy]

For practice at home I use an Ampeg B3, which I put on wheels. It has served me well in this capacity.
