Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread Part 82: Comfortable with Derision

You know it. Not a huge deal as it was loaded with those $30 MCM's but now I gotta figure out whats wrong with this amp.
It was nearly thrown out of my car window and onto the highway on my way home from practice last night, that would have straightened that bitch out
No doubt, talk about the worse fear happening, blowing more speakers, feel for ya man.
**** man, sorry to hear about the troubles. Hopefully it's an easy fix. Sorry for recommending an amp that keeps cooking your drivers.
7:30 a.m. 8 degrees, windy, snowblowing, frozen.
In other news, ordered me one of those badazz elephant shirts!
Band practice tonight, we have a gig this Sat! It's weird going from gigging 5-7 times a month to once every six weeks. It sure is nice having the extra time, though.

Haha no worries there. Despite its bs I still like the sound and functions of this amp enough that I'm taking it to a tech to see if they can identify and solve whatever the problem is. Then again if an amp tech can't find anything obviously wrong, I guess I'll be back in the amp market again.
I can fix my 2x15 now, I'll need another 3012LF to get my fEARful stack alive again. Dont really have the cash lying around for a $200 driver since I dont know what it'll cost to fix the amp, so we'll see what happens. At this point I just want a working amp/cab that I can jam with my band, as right now I have nothing.
I did, however, throw a feeler out to our local gear trading group on Facebook for 2x15's. Hoping to pick up 1 or 2 boxes for ~$150 each, spend another $150 or so on spare drivers, and NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT CABS AGAIN. And I really want to run 8 15"s at once, like a boss.
Anyone here play one of the Fender blacktop P-P basses? Thing looks flat out weird, but I'd be curious to know what it sounds like.
I have been digging that double P version of Blacktop for a while now myself. None of the stores I haunt ever have that model though. Occasionally they pop up on GC used for around $300.
Hey Toast, FWIW- the last time I got a price on getting a 3015LF reconed at a local place here, it was around $90. A bit less expensive alternative than buying a new one. However, I haven't ever had a neo LF driver reconed, so I can't say as how good they turn out.
I've got the P bass with the 2x Humbuckers.
I dig the bass a lot. VERY hot output, but great bass for the value.
I assume the Jazz with the 2x split pups is of a similar value.
