NAD - My First !

I just got my Fender Rumble 350 head and 4x10 cabinet today. This is my first head/cab setup as I had a 12" Hartke combo before. I've only played with this about a half hour but I'm digging it so far. I always thought I had to crank the bass and lower the treble to get the sound I like but apparently I was off. I like a nice "thumpy" sound for some country 1-5 that also sounds good when chugging along to some AC/DC. Apparently the people at Fender call that "Smooth Rock" because that's the setting I'm at now and I like it...so a few pics. The bass in the pic is my first bass, a Silvertone which is my practice bass and one I take to jams, etc. I also have an Ibanez SR300 with Black Beauties and an Ibanez SRX300 with Ernie Ball Power Slinky's tuned BEAD. My Hartke combo couldn't keep up with 2 guitars and a drummer and "farted" out on the low B. I have a jam with two guitarists and a drummer next Wednesday so I'm excited to try it out. My local shops had this for a total of $741 with tax. I called MF and got the 15% off and free shipping so I'm at $594 total, which I thought was a good deal.
