What is your price range?

 

[Stumbo]

Gig?

 

[Qlanq]

Genzler.

Ampeg BA series. Pick the one that fits: your budget, your volume needs, your physical abilities, your sound et al.

Soon, there will be a rumbling sound, lol...

Gorilla. The first and last name in combo amps...

Not a lot to go on here (budget and musical setting would help focus the options), but the Traynor Small Block series sounds really good, is compact and lightweight, and is reasonably priced. I'm very happy with my SB112 on all counts.

So it's Gorilla Gorilla ?

 

[ElectricBass72]

My first bass amp was a Gorilla with 12" speaker. Mid 80's.

Too many to list, especially not knowing budget, application, etc but I can suggest trying to find an old Genz Benz like I did.

Countdown to 50 TB'ers chiming in with "Fender Rumble" in 3... 2... 1...

I vote the T.C. Electronic BG250 combo amps. Not knowing your full scenario, but these are a BARGAIN... great sound + hefty power + TonePrint effects + built-in tuner + great customer service. I have the 12" + horn model and it's a fantastic small gig combo.

That's a classic (it says so right there on the control board, "Classic").

Don't monkey around. Turn it up and go bananas.

Obviously, the Fender Rumble Series reputation is wide spread! There's a reason!

In the absence of any other information, I will always be the "get a blue knob, aluminum strip, pointy logo, US-made Peavey TKO or TNT" guy, just because.

This thing sounds incredible and it pushes air nicely for smaller gigs... 100 watts.

Alrighty Then, i’ll Say it! Rumble 100! It’s a TB cliche because it’s such good bang for the buck, light, plenty loud, etc. Sometimes the reputation is justified, I can’t think of a better combo for the money, but we know nothing about what you are shooting for. Play a few combos, you’ll probably end up with a Rumble anyway.

I "Like" your post and will raise you one Fender Rumble 100

I ran a stack just like that in the 80s.

20 bucks says op won’t revisit this thread.

I’ll just leave this right here......Rumble Stage 800 with the 210 ext cab. Sounds amazing.
