Quick Question

[tuba_dude07]

Hi all,

My brother is having his grad party on the 6th and he would like my band to play at my house. I use a little Peavey combo for practice and such, but I'm pretty sure when we play, I'll be drowned out. What amps do would you guys use for a grad party? We'll probably be playing in the garage or basement. I'm pretty sure I don't need a stack for this but I was thinking probably a slightly bigger combo maybe?

Thanks!

You'll probaly want somewhere between 100-300 watts and a speaker that can handle it.

Yeah, I was thinking about the Fender Rumble 100 or something of that sort.

The Fender Rumble will do the trick. Also get your drummer to learn to play with Hot Rods or Cool Rods. Especially in a basement or garage.

Go on down to GC, (or whatever you have close), and check out what's available. If tone is important to you, the amps will all have their own flavor. Just make sure it's loaded with a 15" spkr, and you like how it sounds. Good luck, wish I could go amp shopping.

Yeah I was planning on doing that in the near future, but after doing some reading here, I see that having a 15" speaker will do trick in a lot of situations. Is it possible to use my little combo as a head? I have an old Peavey Microbass.

I recommend the Acoustic B-200 combo

or get the half-stack variant so you could add a cab later

I've been looking at Acoustic B100 since it's a little cheaper and it's in stock in the GC i'm near. But yeah, the Acoustic Brand seems very reliable.
