Thankx man.....you would be surprised at how many comments i get about them lights...people really seam to dig them. They look really cool on a dark stage when they are shining down on the front of the amp and cab. Also when i am playing i leave the tuner on chromatic mode do it flashes and changes with each note i play....it look pretty cool too
Geez, I was just admireing those too. I was looking at the B200 then I went ***? those lights were cool but I didn't want to sound like I just stumbled out of 1985 going "WOW they lights in rackcases?" DUh
What tuner is that?
OK I just saw Behringer, cool.

LOL thats funny. Yeah the tuner is a Behringer
...lol Its is the only rack tuner that i have been able to find around where i live....it seams alot of companies are getting away from making rack tuners and going more to the floor type. In its defense it works really good have not had any issues with it and hey its go the cool Rack lights
Oh i think i just got a back ache looking at them picGreat looking rigs there Bassboysam
thanks, the real heavy stuff comes with wheels. not that bad at all.
Oh I know use to have an 810...infact my 1515/66/1 has tiltback wheels on it even though it is not that heavy....still the thought of moving my 810 up some stairs still haunts my dreams some nights
Got it yesterday, it's a long story, detailed here: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f15/matamp-bass-200-slave-300-rebuild-thread-793454/
Firstly, it weighs twice as much as the GT200, due to the 4 transformers in it instead of the usual 2. It is a different tone, not massively, you can still tell it's a Matamp.
It's a similar volume to the GT200, I'd suspect if I was using KT100's as it was designed for instead of the KT88's in it, it would be slightly louder.
The 2 channels is cool and a lot of fun when jamming, just setting it for clean and dirty, or dirty and more dirty.
The reason I got it was, they only made 12 of them, the price was good and it served as a perfect replacement for my Mesa Boogie 400+ so that I could go all Matamp, also the pre-in imput means I can use it as a slave amp if I ever need to go really really big.
It's treated as a backup to my GT200 for touring and a more fun jamming amp that would mean I wouldn't need any pedals with me, other than a wah
Next purchase is the crossed over 1x18 to go under that 4x10.
