BigTed,

Do you only use the TubePre for recording, or do you also take it with you for live stuff? Could you explain your rig-chain (aka where is the TubePre in the rig?)? Thanks! Awesome budget setup...I admire those as much as the high-dollar setups...especially if they sound the same at the end!

Here's my Fender BXR200, shown with accompanying single-switch pedal (for the built in chorus) and my distortion pedal. It was bought used in 1997, and I've had it ever since. It's a good amp, if it had outputs for extra cabs and double the power, I'd never consider replacing it.

It's a true combo amp, as it not only combines a head and cab, but it does double duty as my nightstand, as well!
 
What a coinkydink. I played through a BXR combo last night at rehearsal. I don't recall the wattage, but I was really impressed. I used my Fender RB5 strung with TI flats and got a really nice warm vintage sound. I'm sure it would do well with modern sounds too.

For just 200 watts running to a single 15, it's pretty loud, and pretty transparent. All the different buttons and knobs and the 9 band EQ give me lots and lots of options for how I want the sound to come out, and the chorus on it rocks and is depth and rate adjustable. Like I said, if it had more power and some extension cab jacks in the back to accompany the XLR outputs and the effects loop, I'd just buy a 4x10 or something and call it a day.

sweet, how long and how much money did it take you to make those two cabs?
It took me about 2 full week end to build them both.
and it costs me about 500 € (600 $)
The reason why i decided to build my own cabs was the cost. i need 2 light cabs i can handle individually and In europe the 12" cabs are out ouf price (aguilar or eden for example)and very hard to find.
When i see the prices in the US i :bawl:

It also cost me some trouble with my wife :D
