Hey JMJ! I know you're into the Bassman TV 15". Do you find it offers you a big tonal contrast to your B15? Does it provide a lot of detail? Thanks.

Yeah, tons of detail. It's just a wonderful tone. Worth buying one for sure, I think they're cheap. They take pedals great, too.
Hey Justin, Alex here. I'm a big fan of your playing! I also have a bassman tv 15 and love the tone I get when playing in small venues. I play with a p-bass most of the time and I'm trying to replicate/achieve the same tone I get with the p-bass/tv15 combo but in a larger scale (nothing too huge tho, just a bit more power). Thought I would reach out to you since you have much more experience with equipment than I have, and maybe could suggest a couple configurations of head+cab. Thanks!
I'd seriously consider a Sunn 200S or 2000S, or a Fender 100 Watt Bassman vintage head. One of those three scenarios, going into a cabinet with two vintage CTS or JBL 15" speakers such as Sunn, Fender, or Acoustic.
