    Euphonic Audio (EA) cabs - I've been sleeping!

    I've recently purchased an older EA VL 210 4ohm with 2 10" and 2 5" with horn. I was blown away by the sound. I had been playing with a couple Bergantino HDN210 cabs with a Sansamp pre with Crown power doing rock stuff. Occasionally I'd use my Bergantino Forte HD and was very happy with my...

    Gibson, at least they're trying…Les Paul Junior Tribute Bass

    I just picked up a blue one from Sweetwater for $699. Added a Gator hard case that fits perfect. I have to say, I love this thing. Light, balanced for me, surprising range of tones. I haven't had a shorty for more than 30 years and this one is fun to play. Nice setup, quality construction. It...

    Mesa Subway (X) vs. Bergantino HDN210?

    I know this is an old link, but I just bought 2 of the Bergantino HDN210 cabs and found that if you add another set of the rubber cabinet feet to the cabinet side you can stack them easily and it is very stable. It also sounds ridiculously good! Stacking them upright is a bit tall and less...

    Vintage Kalamazoo Bass 30...a good starter project?

    Great thread as my first amp was an old Kalamazoo Model Two with a ten inch speaker and an old Lyndell guitar bought in 1972 for $50. The amp was from the 60's. My dad said "this is the biggest waste of money" as many Dads do. I still have that amp and it screams...worth almost 10 times what...

    boss lmb-3, useless?

    Resurrecting this thread. I did some digging here given I had an old LMB3 that hasn't been used in a while. Rebuilding my whole rig after purchasing a Mesa Prodigy amp. One thing I noticed was how much more sensitive this amp was to attack as I switched from fingers to pick and from various...

    New Mesa All Tube Amps: Prodigy/Strategy Part Three!

    I just picked up one of these cases (tool boxes) at Menards and it works great. Slightly tight fit but great protection. Thanks for the excellent idea!

    New Mesa All Tube Amps: Prodigy/Strategy Part Three!

    Fired up the Prodigy tonight and was really impressed. I was pleased to find plenty of head room and boundless tonal variations! It will take me a while to dial in the sound I really prefer. I only tried it with the Geddy Lee bass but am interested in what it will sound like with my Warwick...

    New Mesa All Tube Amps: Prodigy/Strategy Part Three!

    First post here but have been following all of you about the Prodigy. Mine arrives tomorrow! Can't wait to try it through my Ampeg 6-10 classic with horn. I've been playing a Geddy Lee jazz with Fralin pickups and a SansAmp preamp with a Crest power amp as my main rig for so long but really...
