The Acoustic Club

Thanks buddy! I'm trying to track down some more vintage Acoustic stuff, preferably a 2x15 to go with it. There is a 401 cab around the area that I've been eyeing up for a little while, but I feel like I'd have to get rid of another cab first, just to make the misses feel a little better ahah

FWIW Acoustic made a model 402 that is a 2-15 cab. They also made a 106 and a 406 - both for bass.

Peace...DAcat :cool:
 
You're right. Now that I think about it... I saw Slade with my soon to be wife. That would have been 1975. Ahhh, how time flies.

yeah, the same thing happens to me sometimes, especially when i have a 'senior moment' ;).

on the other hand, it sounds like the 'soon to be wife' thing worked out very well. (or at least i hope it did). :D

Yep, we moved to the US in '79 and will be celebrating our 35th aniversary next month. Not sure which emoticon to go with so settled on this... :hyper:

She might be watching. :)
 
Hey guys. I'm play 3-4 nights a week, and a few months ago, upgraded from an SWR SuperRedhead 350/210 combo (which out weights my new rig) to the Acoustic B600H head, Neo cabs in the 210 and 115 flavor.

Not a rig of doom, per se, BUT this thing absolutely booms. With both cabs going, the tone is huge, I feel it at even low volumes.

Other than the vinyl not holding up to the constant loading/unloading, this rig has been great with no problems at all.

In fact, when we opened up for Ronnie Montrose on the outdoor stage at Soaring Eagle, I talked the sound tech into using the built in DI. He was skeptical, but was a believer afterward :) The sound was huge and fat. Funny thing was, the bassist in the Montrose band has dual SVT 810 stacks, which I plopped my mini stack in front of. My rig looked like that rigs kick stand,lol. But, the tone was huge, and I could feel every note from 20 feet away.

For a flexible, great sounding, non backbreaking rig, it's hard to go wrong with Acoustic.

Rock on!:bassist:

+1 for the B600H!! :bassist: love it
 
Nothing fancy or vintage but I kinda like it...

B600H with the B810.

This is what I shouldda bought first, but since I went to a B-450 and a B-115 and then added two B-410s and THEN got the B-810 and then a B-600H - it all worked out well.

I gotz a lot of Acoustic gear now and love every one of them.

That B-810 really catches the attention of a lot of the old school'rs and surprises the SVT/Ampeg fans too.
