Mini Rigs of Doom Four

Already posted, but for the sake of the thread, this is one load.
2 basses, 800w, cab, Mic and stand, and cables!

Does having a cab with built in wheels still count, its technically not a dolly or cart, I hope so as I cant be bothered with carrying it even though it does weigh only 40lbs:D

Can you easily hoist it in and out of a taxi?

Can you roll it through the turnstile at the train station?

Can you schelp it on and off of a public bus (or festival golf cart)?

If the answer to these questions is "No," it's not a MROD. ;)
 
Can do. My momark and leads fit in a soft carry bag that I carry over my neck and shoulder, guitar in one hand and the 112 in the other. If I am lazy I will carry the cab two hands as a separate trip. So I reckon this rig qualifies in size and as for the doom aspect, surely the ingenuity of momark and mark bass combining for 600w feeding into 8 ohm impedence with 400w at the cabinet is in the ball park:) surely true ?? Lol :)

:)I reckon my rig qualifies on the basis of the above, what I really want to know is, does my rig qualify as the ultimate MROD-GB Streamliner 900 through Barefaced Super Twelve T, must be up there with the best (unlike me !) :bassist::D;)
 
My home practice rig/mini rig

Getting the headcase changed at the weekend for a black one

Cab needs a bit of a clean but hey it mainly lives at home.

So Bass modded Matamp Minimat Pro (4w of tube awesomeness)

Custom Matamp 4x6 cab

This really is big rig sound at low volume, simply lovely.
 
Nice! How do you like that Demeter head?

I've been playing it for almost 6 months now. Its solid, sounds very rich and I'm always impressed with how cool the top of the chassis is after a 2 hour practice. I even have a neat little Mono Gig Bag that it slips right into for taking to a gig. As much as I like it, if I had to put it into a 2u rack bag to transport it, I'd probably go back to using something smaller for most gigs.

Nice to hear that it stays cool. We should be getting one of those in for review soon. :cool:

So it fits in the front pocket of a Mono gig bag? Single or double?

Haha...not my bass gig bag...The Kontroller bag. I also can throw all of my cables and any other random necessities in there, so even though it wasn't cheap, it certainly is convenient.

Also matches my gig bag and pedalboard.

This was me going to the practice space the other day where my cab was already waiting for me. I can do this with the cab in one trip if I want, but usually turn it into two. I usuallly load in pretty close to the door, but having a loud 25lb cab is sure a plus.
