Mini Rigs of Doom Four

Happily trending in my own peculiar direction.
I like it a ton. More than my old PF50T for a few reasons (which I really liked but sold when I found out that this was coming down the pipe). I especially like how certain boutique tube Pre/DI’s sound when paired with the power amp in this thing. The amp works well for either/both of my two differently voiced cab rigs.
Nothing happening here for awhile, here's my mini rig newly pieced together. Since the 'rona, my cover band has moved rehearsals outside, so I needed a very portable, yet decent sounding rig. It's super light and actually sounds great. I already had the lmiii as a backup, so I bought the trace 110 and the portable power, now I can play pretty much anywhere.
Nice. Be careful with the 1x10, though. When they sy 200 watts rating, they mean it. I think it may actually be a 150 watt Basslite speaker in there. I blew one up running my MiniMAX into it (350 watts @ 8 ohms) and I wasn't pushing it that hard.
One of mine
The other one is great (PJB Briefcase), but isn't what I consider to be doom-worthy

what is this portable power you speak of? that little box? how long does that power your rig??
Yeah its the little box. Charge it up at home, and it has 2 three prong ac outlets on it. On a full charge it will power the bass rig and keyboard (using its onboard speakers) for 3+ hours. I bought it off amazon.
Theres a bunch of them on amazon if you search for portable ac power supply. Mine is made by GrantMaya

Roots and fifths and a little extra.
This amp and this cab finally found each other this evening. Behold: the TC Electronic BH250 and the 4 Ohm Eden EX112 cab. Sounds great. Not sure exactly how loud it would get, but with my HPF in front of it, probably surprisingly loud.

My mini stack ... sounds sooo good!View attachment 3995670
Oh, didn't know you could do 112 stacks in here! Only now my Ampeg PF-500 is on top of that.
This has worked for me over the past couple of months. The mb200 fits in my gig bag and I enjoy having the minimal amount of knobs to deal with. I bought a second neo112 but have been doing rehearsals with just one neo112 and it's been great. I have 4 gigs in October so we will see if it needs PA support.
