Here's my rig crammed in the Isolation booth.

Hey MonsterBass, you should probably check out the "Post your pedalboard" threads here in the effects forum. Right now we're on the eleventh PYPB thread.

Here is mine:



But I'm getting a second D12-B and replacing the AMP BH-250 with an AI Focus

Hey James, what did you do with you Classic 400? The one with the custom covering.

EBMM Sterling -> pedals -> GK 700RB-II -> Schroeder 410 light

This is the first time I've ever been completely happy with my tone. The bass I've had for over 6 years, the cabinet about 2 years, and the GK was the missing part of the puzzle until very recently. Hooray!

This is the best picture I could take that includes my whole setup (minus my jazz bass).



This is the small-stack by itself:



A GK 1001-RBII going into a Bergantino HT112.

It was a stock covering... just less common. I sold it because It was just TOO MUCH amp for 95% of my needs. Like 95% of the time it wasn't set to over 2 on the volume knob!

The BH-250 is the same make/model I gigged through the 90s and the BE is similar to the models I ran in the 90s as well.

Let me put this as plain as I can:

I HATE AMPEG.

That amp was horrible, even by Ampeg standards.

Dang, that was a cool looking and even cooler sounding amp. I may have to look for one one day.

I haven't found an ampeg I like either. My Little GK pretty much nails the tone I want anyways. I probably end up getting a 700 or 1000 rb one day. I do like the sound of other tube amps like the classic 400, aguilar 728 matched with a 680, or trace V-8.

it was a cool head. If I was playing bigger places regularly, I would have kept it.
