Just wondering what people have as mains and backups.
Ampeg SVT : Earth Superbass
Yes, the Earth is a total late 70s Peavey knockoff but it's surprisingly useful and toneful for being so cheap. My guitar player uses it as his backup too!  |

At the moment no backup, just a direct box.

|  | Total Hyper-Elite Member | | Join Date: May 2000 Location: Groom Lake, NV | | | In my (crappy-sounding) lightweight amp stable, my Shuttle 9.0 is the main amp, while the WTX-500 backs it up. Although today, I used the WTX-500 at rehearsal.
In the back-breaker arena, I have a WT-800B, DB750 and Heart-Rock, none of which is a back-up to anything. The Shuttle 9.0 is the back-up for all of them.

Endorsing Artist: Maxon (Godlyke), Dava Control | | Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Maryland | | | Pics to come, but right now it's:
Main: 1978 Ampeg SVT
Back-Up: 1969 Ampeg SVT (currently being tuned up...new filters, a new 12DW7, cleaned out and biased) This will probably become the main gigging amp.
Smaller Back-Up: 1969 Ampeg B15N
