Your Gig Rig

This is one of my favorite setups for funk/R&B/whatever

I bet that amp and cab really sound good together!
 
Mine is somewhat in flux right now...I'm playing bass in a band again after quitting my old bass gig to play guitar in another band a few years ago, so I've been going through rigs in the last few months like they're going out of style.

After going through Mesa, Hartke, GK and Ampeg, I'm back with SWR again.

I've got an SWR Big Bertha 2x15 and an SWR Goliath Jr. III 2x10 that I'm sticking with and I'm returning the Ampeg SVT-4 Pro and getting a pair of SWR Bass 750's.

My favorite basses are P-Basses and Rics. Right now I'm playing a new American Standard P-Bass with a maple neck, Bartolini pickups and a Hipshot D-Tuner.

I also like to use an EBS Multi-Comp into a Tech 21 Bass Driver DI with all knobs set at 12 o'clock going into the front of my amps. :cool:

Here's my adapt-all rig. The WT550 does most of the work with two, three, or all four of the 112's, depending on the gig. The combo either goes alone or I partner it with the JBL 15 (I don't like it with a second 112). The samson gets either acoustic guitar or floor vocal monitor duty from an ART tube channel.

The cigar humidor & spider candles usually don't make the gigs!
