100+ Watts on the Cheap (Another Amp Help Thread)

moar 4x12s is always the correct answer.

Maybe I'll just have someone build me a 2x12+1x15

So I've decided 50 watts isn't going to cut it. Love the Sound City, but it definitely compresses too much at high volumes for what I'm looking for (shoulda known, but I definitely don't regret trading for it). Had someone offer me a 1968 Bassman 100 (non-master) for the SS. I've wanted one for a while so I'm tempted. What do you guys think?

That's a pretty cool trade, I had a bassman like that for a while. Be aware though, they compress and get distorted really early as well.

Oh really? I'd heard they were super clean at high volumes, hmm.

Kinda tempted just to get another Beta or maybe a Concert Lead. I'm so satisfied with my Beta Bass. Just need something to stack it with.

Sad to hear about the Sound City. If I had something worthy of trading I'd maybe consider it.

[archlilim]

Yeah I wish I could afford to sit on rad gear that I'm not actively using cuz I know I'll miss this amp down the road

[ShaolinLambKiller]

Well at the very least you have some awesome tradebait.

If you can grab that V4 that's what I would do for sure. I just sold my bassman to get one.

For sure. The name alone will make it desirable.

[archlilim]

Well if you guys have any Sunn solid state or even a Peavey Mark IV (plus some moneys obviously), it could be yours!
