I like black with modern, wood finishes & chrome with painted finishes.

This one is identical to mine! It is my #1 recording bass!

The best part of living in Seattle! I can't say enough good things about them-I've been shopping there for 16 years! Every time I set foot in another store, I'm always dissapointed! And no, I don't work there-never have!

I've bought my Mesa 400+ used over 12 years ago, and it rocks! I bought a used SVT4 Pro, because I liked the sound of my SVT3 for funk, but wanted more power. Big mistake-it didn't sound nearly as good as either amp, and one of the power amps quit working after 2 weeks! You also have to make...
