Just got a 1978 Rick 4001. Looking to get a combo amp that will bring out the best in her. I am no slapper or funk merchant, mostly rock based singer/songwriter stuff. I prefer 15'' speakers...is this old fashioned and are new drivers just as good? Was thinking about Trace E gear. Too modern for an old bird like this? Don't do much live playing at mo, mostly recording. Whit aboot Hartke?

Which combo for my 1978 Rick 4001

Mesa Walkabout Scount combo, you can use the 12" or the 15".
I personally go with the 12" in an 8ohm.

I have a 4001. For 26 years, I used two combos, and stacked 'em, and that was my rig. If you use the Rick-O-Sound, you can run it out to two amps. Mine were both Rolands. A Spirit 30W and a BN-60. I ran the treble out the little one and the bass out the big one. Sounded sweet. I recently got my first stack, but man, those were sweet while they lasted.
