yeah, so who are you and who's you band. For the umpteenth time? We can't tell your tone if we don't know your band ;)

Alas, your credibility continues to tumble like the stock market on a Black Friday, but the ride's fun, thanks for the entertainment on a slow Wednesday morning :D

its a busy wednesday evening here in spain but this is still the best show in the village.prepare for even more fame 18.
 
Here's the current state of stage amplification - I'm thinking that 4 Fender stacks just ain't gonna cut it.

I think one half of the stage should be backed by Marshall and the other half by Ampeg (or Peavey, reader's choice).

And ALL CABINETS are to be hooked up and running. :D

I imagine that would be loud enough to play OP's bass for him like he wants. Although the fans might be disappointed when they see the amps playing the bass lines differently than he recorded them on all their favourite hits they hear everyday on the radio.
 
you guys are all anons too. :hiding:

Not all of us. Don't project. C'mon, brah. Don't hide. If you're doing a gi-normous World Tour (TM), stand up proud. We'd all love to come see your tube-a-licious, stacked-to-the-rafters, wicked-feedback-generating, make-yer-bass-asplode, pants-flapping rig first-hand.

(As long as it's not Peavey...)
 
As an engineer, I think we should be looking for the most efficient and cost effective solutions to the OP's request for more stage wind.

Two models, first, the modern hybrid version (tube pre, ss amp):

Then the second choice, all tubes vintage sound:

Maybe mix them, put one type on each side of the drummer?

...with a portable, yet fully functional hydro-electric dam backstage powering the entire rig. Or better still, to maximize the testosterone levels, a furnace using raw coal and perhaps a few choice near-extinct species of flora and fauna. Ya know, cuz it's bad-ass.

I heard he was looking for some new fans too, that might help with the requirements?

Aha! Too shy to let us know the band so we can buy tickets and be supportive, but NOT too shy to play a stadium!
