    Mesa vs Eden

    Speaking of Eden repairs, I've been using the WTX500 and WTX264 heads for a number of years and am very happy with them. But recently the standby light on the 264 remains lit after being turned on and the amp does not produce any sound. Any troubleshooting tips before I start looking for a local...

    SOLD Fender Bassman 410 Neo Bass Cab

    A great light weight pro 4x10 cab in excellent condition. I added some black gorilla tape to protect those pesky Fender tolex seams. Casters too! My downsizing is your gain at this low price. Willing to meet you in Central Pa or metro NYC/LI area. Will ship if you make all arrangements with my...

    Have you ever tried/bought something just because of the artist(s) that use it?

    Why would anyone be so shallow and unoriginal......

    Official Fender Bassman Club Pt II

    I often use two 115 Rumble cabs with my Bassman 500. The additional cab helps provides more headroom and gives additional thump for sure. The stack also gets the sound closer to my ears for monitoring purposes. I would assume the same configuration with the Bassman 115s and Bassman 800 head...

    What was your first bass amp and how bad was it?

    This Harmony (with a separate head!) was my first bass amp. Bought used in 1974. It was a POS. But it was MY POS.

    Official Fender Bassman Club Pt II

    Speaking of Hofners..... I recently got a great deal on a BM 500 after years of using Traynor, Peaveys, GKs, Eden, MarkBass and Mesa. Bought 2 new Rumble 115 cabs and I'm travelling light for the first time in over 40 years. Having fun testing my basses on the new amp. I find the Hofner...

    SOLD Avatar B212 Cab

    This is a tight and warm sounding 4 ohm cab that performs exceptionally well. It paired perfectly with my MB Walkabout head when I needed to push more air at larger gigs. Cover and cart included. The cab has the tough Line-X treatment on the cab surface (no rat-hair here) so it can absorb any...

    SOLD Mesa Boogie Walkabout Scout 15" Combo

    This awesome WA combo, priced to sell quickly, has recently been tuned up and has a brand new Kappalite 15" 8 ohm 450-watt speaker. This bigger version of the more prevalent WA 12" has been great for both small and large venues. Add another 8 ohm cab and you're ready for the outdoors (w/out...

    Mesa Boogie Walkabout Mega-thread Part 10

    Question... is it against TB policy to mention in this club thread an item for sale on another website? Asking for a friend.

    What don’t you like about Rickenbackers?

    Walked into Manny's in NYC in April 1978 and got my lefty Mapleglo 4001 w/ Ricko-Sound for $495. Still have it and love that my cutaway on the headstock is on the bottom (same as Macca). For this reason alone I will never sell. Still fits like a glove against my body. Although over the years...
