Is there an amp that actually goes to 11?

[mikethecannibal]

Being the Spinal Tap fan that I am, i have been searching for a while for an Amp that goes to 11, making me one louder than everyone else. Does anyone know where I can get one? I've checked Musicians friend and the Marshal website, but i cant find one anywhere, even ebay was useless for this search. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Marshall made a head that goes to 11. It was just a typical head, with different markings, as you can probably guess. It was made because of the popularity of Spinal Tap, but was for guitar.

I don't know of any bass amps that go to 11, although they might exist.

 

[mikethecannibal]

yeah thats what im begining to think too... but my search continues

This one is a clone of a '59 bassman - it goes to 12.

 

[pinkzepphish]

My Carvin B1500 goes to 11.

Oh, it doesn't actually SAY that on the front panel, but when I plug it into both of my 4 ohm cabs it puts out 1900 watts and the few times I've been able to turn that combination up it felt vaguely like my ribcage was being crushed.

That's GOT to be over "10"

soldano guitar amps go to 11.

You could print up a decal with 1-11 to go over the current numbering. Would be cheap and easy and undo-able.

BTW, I recently met this guy:

Nice guy. I was doing some custom woodwork for him. We talked for a moment about bass and recording, seems like a pretty down-to-earth guy, for being both a member of "The Tap" and Monty Burns.

This movie is getting dated, I think the new watermark is up to "27"
You could go to an art store and pick up some rub down "0"
Add one after every number you have now.
10, 20, 30 .. 100

You'd be well ahead of the curve.

EBS Bass Amps (Drive 0-11 and Master Volume 0-11).

My 59 Bassman also goes to 12 ;]....its one more than 11

 

[mrpackerguy]

I didn't care much for the sound of the Mesa M6 but it sure sounded like it would go to 11. If that's your thing.

 

[pedroims]

my QSC goes from -oo db to 32, it can push 2400W in bridge mono

Spinal Tap also were the first band to have amps that go to infinity. You'd turn the knob and it would just keep turning, leading some people to believe they were just broken.

The new Fender Champs also go to 12, they're guitar amps though.

Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?

 

[ksandvik]

My Marshal JCM900 goes to 20! In case you want to use that open-cab combo as a Bass amp (not recommended.)

 

[JimmyM]

Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?

Um...these go to 11.

That is the funniest thing I've heard all night. A pretty boring night, I know.

Derek Smalls said the SWR SM1500 will go to 11.
