Show off your rig!

Wow. ..... 1000w !!!!???? :woot::bassist::hyper: Lovely rig & gawjus EBMM too :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Tell us more about the Noble please! Tube? :nailbiting::nailbiting::nailbiting:
Class D.... Led sled ????
Much Thanks!! Hahaha... yeah technically it will go 1100w into 2 or 4 ohm. ;) It combines the same Dual vacuum tube Preamp and Jensen DI and as is in their Noble DI/Pre and combine that with a Class D amp. They have only made a handful of them. Mine is 18" wide and is the only one that he has made so far in that size. Typically they are 24" wide. Heavier than the typical Class D due to the case (19 lbs.) but I like that doesn't look and feel like something that I'm afraid is going to get knocked off of my cabinet. I've only had it a little over a month but very happy with it so far. Simple controls... hard to get a bad sound out of it. Plays great with pedals and dead quiet. I just used it last week in the studio and just used the Pre/DI side of things without having it hooked up to a cabinet. Sounded incredible!!:bassist:

My basses go through a Zoom B3 for effects and amp modelling, and then into my rig: a Peavey Max Bass Pre-amp (has a tube and solid state pre-amp which can be blended: I usually use the solid state unless I want some tube overdrive for certain songs) into a Peavey IPR 3000 power amp (I used to use a QSC GX5, but this Class D Peavey is about a third the weight) into fEARful 15/6 and 15sub (full range) cabs. The rig dwarfs my mascot, Godzilla, but he's always on top. The magnets are not usually directly over the speakers (took the photo before properly arranging them; can't spell "BADASS" without "BASS"), and the sub is pointed at the drummer. Oh, and the extra slot in the rack is filled by a blacklight I had that just fit in behind a 1U grill.

My current full sized rig. Most cases I'll take the head with only one of the cabs, but when the transportation allows I love having both. The jazz is my newest acquisition, and I'm in love.

Ampeg SVT CL
Greenbased 210+115 (front ported enclosures with Eminence Kappalite LF drivers)
Pedals: VPJR, TU2, EHX Bass Preacher, Sansamp, Throne Torcher, Empress Fuzz
Fender American Standard Jazz V

Mind the mess on top, but I share a jam space with 4 other bands so as long as it's not a liquid on top of my head I'm OK with it.
