Thanks for the guidance on the Ampeg amps. I'm losing patience on finding a used Fender Bronco 40. I see the Rumble 15 quite often on my local CL (of course, not today). I'll add the Ampegs to my "be on the lookout for" list.

I found the answer on the Line 6 forum. It looks like I'd still need an amp. Looking at used amp prices and used cabinet prices, I'd wouldn't save anything over buying a combo. Couldn't figure out how to delete this thread.

I'm a beginner who's plays solely in my bedroom or living room. Currently, I'm playing an old Line 6 Bass POD through headphones. I'd like to ditch the headphones. I had been considering the Bronco 40 (hoping to score one used) and several people recommended that I check out the Rumble 40. I...

Thanks for the comments on the Rumble 40. I haven't yet made it to GC to try out the amps. A friend loaned me an old Line6 Bass Pod. It gives me a painful ear-ache by emitting a very high pitched sound that like the tinnitus I experience when shooting. But, the economy being what it is, I'm...

Hey, pretty jazzed to be here. I had been lurking as a visitor for a while and it seemed like a great community; I'm happy to join. I started playing bass in 1981, when I was a twelve-year old Beatle fan. I played until I was about 18, but never really got passed playing everything in 4/4...

Thanks for the feedback. You're probably right about Fender Fuse not going anywhere soon. On the other hand, the Rumble, stripped of all that fancy stuff, alleviates any future support problems. I'll head down to the local GC and check them both out. I'm happy to be playing bass again, after...

Thanks for all the leads. Googling it, it looks like it was a T-20. I appreciate the suggestions; it was really bothering me. Great community here. I'm very happy to have picked up the bass again, after 25 years, and I look forward to being a more active member.

I'm thinking of picking up the bass, after a 25-year hiatus. I'm looking for something small for the bedroom. Reading on-line, the Bronco 40 looks great. I am a bit concerned about it no longer being supported, in a few years. Can anyone share thoughts on the Bronco 40 as a bedroom amp...

When I turned 12, in 1981, my kick-ass dad bought me a brand new Peavey P-bass. He really kicked ass. I'm trying to figure out what model it might have been. What were the near-bottom of the line P-style basses that Peavey were selling around 1980/81? Any help would be appreciated, in my...
