Has anyone ever bought too many things at once at felt overwhelmed the at its first use?
I'm going from this:
Washburn T-24 Bass
Behringer 300W Head
Hartke VX115 and VX410
to this:
Lakland 44-01 Bass
Ampeg B4R Head
SWR Goliath 6X10
This Saturday will be the first gig with the new gear. I also run sound for our band from the stage -- on top of that it's a venue we haven't played before! I'm feeling some anxiety about getting everything sounding good with all of the drastic changes!
Guess that's about all I can do... I've only been able to play my new stuff in our practice room, which is really small - but even then the sound is SO different!
gadgetx23: come on man.. don't bother.. you have a great rig and a great bass.. nobody ever complained if something sounds ...just goreous ... find a good tone (with this rig and this bass shouldn't be difficult thing ) and just enjoy !
I try to avoid that much new gear at once in the case of a problem it's more difficult to troubleshoot, especially if you haven't had much practice with the gear.
However, it's a lot more fun with all new gear

Thanks guys. We had another practice last night and I was REALLY happy with the sound I was able to get. What a drastic change... amazing what good equipment can do!
Like tplyons said though - too much new gear is hard to troubleshoot when something goes wrong. I'll hope for the best!
