thanks, that's helpful.

Older thread, but looking for something like the sumo to power my passive bass/PA speakers. I have mixers. Anything newer out there? Saw the seymour duncan amps. Without digging up the tube vs ss watts ordeal, Are the 700 watt class d amps louder than, say, a fender twin? Trying to get a...

I'm going to deescalate the Talky Bass element that's been cropping up in this discussion and recommend Plush amps which were 100 watt hand wired American made tube amps based on fender showman or a twin reverb designs built in the 70s. I've had one since 1973 and it's been a workhorse with no...

Big fan of Mike's cabs. I wouldn't say they are especially tube friendly, with maybe the exception of the first lpt12 cab. They really need some juice to get going. When i think tube amps, i'm thinking 2 6l6 or 6550. maybe 50 or 100 watts tops. If i need to cart a 300 watt tube amp, i'll just...

Batteries. Because i dislike teeny flimsy wires and connectors. because wall warts clog up power strips. Because it's hard enough finding enough quality AC power in most situations. i use no pedals when playing bass, maybe one if my amp doesn't have onboard reverb and tremolo when playing...

Current pocket bass rig: Shortscale hollow body or Ubass. An arnapol mas 1-8 that is <25lbs with quilter. surprisingly full and loud if needed.
