Well, took possession of my Rumble 500w head today, loving it so far. Any tips on how you all set up the eq etc to get your favourite sounds would be appreciated.

Our cover band is quite eclectic ie: Black Keys, John Mellancamp, B52's, Dobbies, the list goes on. Our female singer has asked that we learn 2 Spandau Ballet songs for her friends wedding that we "may" be playing at, I say may because there is no firm date or $ discussed. My position is, if...

Thanks for all the replies, looks like the train of thought is to sell the old combo, which is in the medium term plan, but might be need to be a short term plan :) Will def try b4 I buy, thoughts on Ampeg vs Hartke?? We will be playing medium size gigs, so not super loud, but need to be able...

Hey Guys, I am getting back into the live situation after a 20 year hiatus..... looking at adding to or upgrading my gear. I use a vintage 1970's Jazz bass USA issue with a 20yr old Peavey 115bw 300 watt combo. Looking at adding an Ampeg svt 410 he cabinet to my peavey 15" black widow/ 300 watt...
