Completely pointless trivia ahead.

How much does your average gigging gear weigh? So if you've got 6 cabs, 3 heads and 9 basses. just the 1 head two cabs and 3 basses you bring to the gig, or whatever it is you bring!!

(excluding synth units, keyboards etc. just bass =) )

Mine two warwick cabs, ampeg svt3, warwick 5 string vette jazzman

184.75 lbs, thats 13.24 stone for us brits!

i know my basson sound cab is 110lbs, and I think my rackcase weighs somewhere in the area of 50 pounds, and my bass is probably 9-10 pounds, so i'd say around 170 lbs

Ampeg BXT210 x 2- 60 x 2 -- 120 lbs
Rack w/ Preamp - 50 lbs
Rack w/PowerAmp - 30 lbs
Bass in gigbag - 10 lbs
Mixer for PA - 25 lbs
FX Unit w/ case - 30 lbs
JBL 12" PA Speakers - 40 x 2 -- 80 lbs
random assortments of cable - 30 lbs

Total -- 375 lbs. Only difference between practices and shows would be that at practice I would only have 1 bass cab and 1 pa speaker.
