What's Your Dream Amp?...(Combo, Head and Cab, Whatever..)

[skwee]

The best sound I ever got onstage was with an SWR Redhead.

I'd like my 400+ back. That and a SVT 2 split between a quad of 4x15 cabs would be sweet. Actually, make it six 4x15 cabs, and throw a Marshall VBA in there.

 

[JimmyM]

Of course, it's this one:

But seriously...it's this one...er...these two:

 

[Jim Carr]

Any one or two of my fEARful's, a Crest Prolite 3.0 (non-dsp), and a tube pre, like the ART 259 or a Demeter VTBP-201. If I'm on upright, add an Fdeck HPF ver. 3.

I would swap my Bass Big Muff for a Darkglass B3K and swap my BBE 383 for a BBE Bmax-T. Otherwise, my rig is already made of my dreams.

[Arthur U. Poon]

Ampeg SVT head and a pair of 810E cabinets

 

[wmhill]

got it- Tecamp Puma 900 & S212 cabs.

I own my dream Bass amp and head. It handles everything I could possibly want and provides the best tone I've ever had. It's also extremely light and portable.

 

[Big Hoss]

I guess you could say I'm livin' the dream because I already have mine.

Fender Rumble V3 500 combo + V3 210 cab. It gives me the sound, volume, and reliability I want, without breaking the bank, or my back. Super simple to set up. Lovin' it for sure.

48lb Revsound 4x10 vertical

Since David builds his own, maybe he can do a 4x12 vertical.

That is totally doable and would be a first.

 

[spiritbass]

Livin' & lovin' it...

 

[toddsterbassist]

Tech 21 dUg head into an Ampeg 810.

 

[Pbassmanca]

Livin' & lovin' it...

There's just no denying the serious nature of that rig brother.......

 

[spiritbass]

The best part is that it has killed any GAS completely.

Now THAT......Is a man cave.....

 

[Killed_by_Death]

first I'd need to move into a bigger home, w/o anyone living nearby

 

[shoot-r]

Ok...you know what your dream bass is...so what dream amp/cab/combo are you going to run it through?

Dream amp for me...a Mesa Subway sized head voiced to sound "exactly" like my Mesa M-6 Fathom/Carbine heads.

 

[Omega Monkey]

I won't go through every possible permutation, but this would be one version...

Vintage Trace Elliot high wattage head (400 or 500+) with the 11 or 12 band tube preamp and dual band compression
SWR Goliath III 4x10
SWR Big Ben 1x18

Paired with
SVT 2 Pro or maybe a Reeves
Acoustic 408 4x15 loaded with JBLs

And then for a small/practice rig,
Genz Benz Shuttle or Streamliner 6
Genz Benz STL 210T (which I already have)
