Sometimes I miss my 400+ but I'm glad it went to a good home. I don't play bass out anymore so it's good that someone is using it and happy...

I saw this picture of Hendrix, all he used was a wah.... And not even the Jim Dunlop Jimi Hedrix wah, just some old thing.....
Jimi didn't realise the horrible tone suck we had to listen to every time he used that wah.

I was eye balling the 400+

how do you like it?


Dude I fucking love it, I used to have to worry about "cutting thru the mix" now I'm concerned with overpowering it,

my guitarist now needs a bigger amp thanks to me, I'm hunting for a Sunn for him to buy which i have no problem with at all :!!!:

Police never showed up until I got that 400+ and the band started adjusting to it.

This thread is a reminder that I need to stop wasting my money on pedals and get to work on getting better amps.

I know that for a fact, I have had a little shitty 15 watter that sounded like crap and I never wanted to play, now that I have rad amp I want to play a lot more than I normally due.

ok so i'll post than just one here... hope that's ok! ;)

i used to be a chronic amp-a-holic, but i've downsized now.

my #1 main amp (for many years now) is this '68 Twin Reverb. bought it about 10 years ago for $200, came with crappy 60s sunn PA speakers. i put some Jensen C12N's in it, recapped it and gave it its long-deserved TLC.
Image

my beloved '64 Vibrolux Reverb. has new (cheap) trannies, so i'm gonna restore it someday. been saying that for about 5 years now. but it sounds great as-is. it's in REALLY nice/clean shape, too!
Image

then, there's my late 60s Sound City B100 head. LOVE that thing, but it's just more comfortable to take a combo instead of the head/cab thing.
the marshall cab is a 1976 vintage 1982B with blackback celestions.
Image

another one i'm (very slowly) restoring, i basically saved it from the thrash. '68 Super Reverb. i've had (and stupidly sold) LOTS of SR's. i love the sound of them 10 inch speakers!!!
Image

Sound City 50plus from the early 70s - currently not working (sure hope it wasn't the tranny. stopped making sound about 5 years ago, but i need to recap it first...). and my lovely late 60s (i think) Sunn 4x10 cab. man if this thing could talk... :lol:
Image

and sorry i don't have a better pic now, this is my '73 Orange 4x12 cab. i restored it the best i could, but the speakers are original celestion greenbacks.
this is SO damn heavy it has never left the house. i used it with the '68 bassman (yes the cab is currently wired for 4 ohms) for years, but sold that head last month cuz i was broke.
Image

i think i'll use the orange with my old Acoustic 370 bass head, as i'm getting into bass a bit, too.
Image
it's perfect for the bass/guitar sounds of my '63 Fender VI (currently stripped and getting ready to be refinished by Danocaster!)

that's pretty much it, i think.

Pat.
i love delay SO much ...that i procrastinate all the time.

370 is also easier than you think to acquire.
