    So my son actually happens to work at a music store. I think the owner can order Ampeg. What would be a good choice for a head and cabinet. They play pretty aggressive punk rock. So volume counts. Either a stand alone rig or something running through guitar amp and bass amp? I have read some...

    B-string, I appreciate your time and patience. I'm not opposed to buying him a bass rig, just trying to weigh the options, and avoid a "What's the best amp under $1000" debate, because I know everyone has has their opinions.
