It's a tough choice with all the options out there. If it helps you decide, I've had my Hartke LH500 for almost two years without a hitch. That includes 16 hours of practice and roughly 8 hours of gigging per month. A good strong amp with plenty of deep sound.

I've played bass since the mid 70's. Certainly not a newbie but likewise, certainly not the best either by any stretch. Nonetheless, the advice is well founded. Knowing what to do and when is the mark of a skilled bassist.

Awesome Cab. I just hooked it up to my Hartke LH500 and played my Fender Deluxe Active P through and all I can say is Leo Fender would be very pleased.
