Full band. Big Mesa lovers here!

There’s a Simone preamp and separate power amp available. Since I already owned a Monique preamp, I just have the 500w power amp (7-1/4” square). I also use it to power my keyboards directly into cabs. Lightweight, no fan—stays pretty cool, runs super quiet! Quite handy...
Here’s a little bit of my amp gear:

someone put a old school pic up there too, the 'ol V4b with a SVT bottom. and that's the same bass that's in the avatar
Updated rig with powder coated grille.
I have the Rumble 500 and have been toying with getting the 2x10 or the 115 to go under it
How do you like the 4x10 setup?
Duke
I really love it, the sound is deep and full and having those 2x10s up higher near my ears helps for sure
Classy rigs - I take it there are no cats, small kids, or fault lines in your vicinity?
I used to have a Mesa/Boogie Bass 400+ in a tweed case...
Wow, I've always fantasized about a "big/little Bag End 15 stack including a coax".
How does it all sound, and what kind of gigs do you use it on?

Love my Mesa 400+. One of the few pieces of gear that I have bought twice!
The big/little combo sounds great, very full bottom, though I actually prefer to use both the small cabs for gigs. I will likely always keep the two large cabs though as I consider them my "deserted island" rig,hehe
So this is my rig I recently posted. It's the Ampeg BA210 v2 combo plus Eden TN210 cab.
This configuration gets 450w with 4x10 speakers.
The Ampeg gives that characteristic middy sound, and the ported Eden cab fits in pushing nicely the lower tones...
It was put together based on economy first and sound close second; combo was 466€ in February (is 555 now) and cab was on sale at 211€ (discontinued now).
I sometimes use the Ampeg footswitch for the scrambler OD channel which is not too bad, and a MarkBass Compressore.
I am very happy with the sound and power I get from this rig, at a great price.
Both combo and cab have tweeters, I'm not using them 99% of the time.
