    Listen, do you want to know a secret?

    It is entirely possible to be able to get a smashing JBass for that kind of money. I believe it because I've seen it with my own eyes (or perhaps rather, heard it with my own ears??). Haven't heard of this particular brand that you're endorsing but I have held some Jazz Basses made by a...

    Wayne Jones Audio going belly up. killer deals available

    So, you have one million headroom and also can push a 50db sensitivity speaker to audible levels with this thing. Also, you get bragging rights for playing live gigs on 0.5/100 volume knob position.

    R.I.P. Lyndon Laney

    Oh... Sad. I am actually very fond of Laney amps, always thought their combos in particular had something interesting in them.

    Tonehammer vs AG = Eden vs SWR?

    Tonehammer is your choice. I've had both (TH500 and AG 500 DC) and the AG will not get you there without some extra preamps.

    Yamaha TRB-6 Goodness!

    Has anyone compared an Aguilar DB 751 to the Helix preset?

    Ken smith

    I played Ken Smiths, played NYC Sadowskys, Foderas... They didn't really feel that much special, apart from the brand fame.
