Whoops...forgot to list my own crap.
Heads...
1) Two (2) Peavey Alphabass heads...THIS is where my preamp tone comes from. If I had to have ONE amp, it would be a Peavey Alphabass. I run this preamp signal through everything else listed below...
2) Two (2) Orange Thunderverb 200 heads
3) Two (2) Mesa Bass 400+ heads
4) One (1) Peavey Classic 400 head in tweed
5) Two (2) Ampeg SVT-II heads in SVT-RC cabs, circa 1999
6) Two (2) Ampeg SVT-VR heads...Vietnampeg!
7) One (1) Fender Rumblebass Custom Shop head
8) One (1) Peavey Mark III head...70's...my first amp...one of the only amps I can plug straight into and play
9) Two (2) Peavey 70's "The Bass" heads...preamp gain, distortion, AND fuzz! The 70's were fun...
10) One (1) Peavey Classic 100 head in tweed...these work AMAZINGLY well for bass! Maiden tone...
11) One (1) Marshall 1959SLP Super Lead head in black...used for punchy power
12) One (1) Marshall 1959SLP Super Lead limited edition purple edition head...again used for power
13) One (1) Fender Bassman 135 head...70's
14) One (1) Fender Bassman -Amp 50 watt head...1969
15) One (1) Fender Bassman 300 tube head...this year ha ha...
16) One (1) Marshall VBA400 head
17) One (1) Marshall DSL-100 limited edition silver head...used for power and clean old school punch
18) Peavey power amps: DPC1400, old school 4 rackspace CS-800, two (2) Classic 120/120 tube amps
19) Carvin DCM-1015 power amp with built in dual 15 band eq's
Signal chain is: Bass---Alesis 3630 compressor (1st channel)---Peavey 215 eq (1st channel)---Alphabass---Alphabass Preamp Output into Peavey 215 eq (2nd channel)---ADA Ampulator---Rocktron Studio Hush---Alesis 3630 compressor (2nd channel)---Alphabass Poweramp Input...this signal is also sent to any of the other amps either for straight power or more tone tweaking for fun...
The result is 70's distorted but completely controlled midrangey articulate thickness, with envelopy-synthy overtones from the distortion. Kind of a cross between "Moving Pictures" Geddy Lee, "Master of Reality" Geezer Butler, and 70's "Wings Over America" Paul McCartney...
Cabinets...
I mainly use 4X12 cabinets loaded with Celestion Vintage 30's, although I prefer Celestion G12H 30 watt bass cone (55hz) speakers. But, the G12H's are fragile for bass and you can easily deform the paper voice coil formers.
1) Carvin 4x12 with british Vintage 30's, covered in Ozite gray/black carpet...my main cabinet from 1989
2) Carvin 2x15 cabinet with mid '90's Peavey 1502DT Black Widows...GREAT midrange bite, my first cab
