Let's see your music equipment hauler :-)

Hello Bassplayers, my name is Mykk. I am going to be more active on this forum, great info here. I thought it would be fun to post up pictures of your mode of transportation, how do you get your bass equipment from A to B.

My passion & life is music, my hobby is cars. So naturally, my equipment hauler is a custom Silverado I've practically designed and built from the ground up. This equipment hauler has even made it on the cover of automotive enthusiasts magazines.





450hp carbureted small block chevy built from scratch:



Clearly my equipment hauler isn't meant for long hauls, at 10-12mpg.

Let's see yours, Cheers ~Mykk

2004 Dodge Caravan. And since the back surgeries, I get all the good parking spaces.

Meet Leeroy, a little fiat uno from 1989 (it's older than I am lol)
Would you believe I got this little thing to 102mph with 4 people and a load of camping gear in the car?

Bought it last summer for £250, insurance was relatively cheap of course so it was perfect for me.



I'm the only one in the band with a drivers license. Here he is packed with a bass combo amp, a bass cab, two guitar amps, drum breakables, three guitars, one bass, a couple of pedals and a bag full of cables and microphones. I couldn't live without this car!

Great idea! Suscribed. I'll post a pic later. I work nights and wife is currently on days. She drives the hauler to work and I limp around in a ratty old pickup.

Since I've retired the Ampeg PR1832HE cab and I'm just using the 810E alone I've found I can now move my cab, rack & misc in my little Saab. Much better for road trips.
