I you don't mind carrying another small case the A designs REDDI s amazing. I have fixed enough Countryman DIs over the years to say they are...

    JBL PRX series experience??

    I'll start off by saying I love JBL products. I work for a company that has over 20 rigs all comprised of custom designed boxes loaded with JBL drivers. The PRX stuff however has some design issues with the internal electronics and I would avoid the series altogether if possible.

    The Burk, Funk and the Beatles?

    Cool. I'll probably just end up at troy on Sat. night... I used to work at one of the Kensington plants but I'm not there anymore so I have been popping in to BHam or Troy when I can. I also emailed a woman about playing there but I haven't heard anything back. Oh well it's just as fun to listen.

    Tecamp vs. Thunderfunk vs. Genz Benz

    Okay the Roscoe... Not in love with the tone... I know then why play it? Everything else small body, weight, very well balanced, looks great and the neck profile is out of this world. I'm hoping that the nordstrands will even out the tone issues and give me a more J bass like tone. I'm also...
