Hey, I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I really need an amp head, I don't know any of the specifics for this head, but it needs to be loud, and somewhat affordable, like 400-500
Any reply is most appreciated
Thanks

Re: Bass amp heads
Find a used ashdown ABM EVO head. I got mine for $450, and it's loud as hell. Great tones too. Can't recommend highly enough.

Re: Bass amp heads
Buy a Tronograpic Rusty Box and find a cheap 200w power amp on CL. BOOM instant amazing amp with room to grow. Need more power? Bigger power amp! More cabs!

They can be had for very cheap, I got mine for $250 shipped but I know they can go for 150-200. Easy to get loud and nicely tweakable but if you're looking for any kind of dirt, you're gonna have to provide that with a pedal.

Their solid state stuff sucks and their tube stuff is way outta his (and my) range. But I do too.

Re: Bass amp heads
That Hartke is dah tits. But not all of their stuff is so beware. I'd suggest looking into a used Genz Benz Shuttle 6 head too. If you're running an efficient 4ohm cab it will amaze you with tone and volume.

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.....

I think GK has some of the best bangs for buck for flexibility and performance. The 1001RB-II will make an 8x10 roar if desired and can be found nicely used in your price range.
There is a character limit.

J.J. Burnel pulled it off, but I don't like breaking my stuff.

I, too, will get behind this. I have the HA2000 and it's a dec amp, for sure.
It was my main jams until I got my Mesa.
Hey! Let's talk about serious thing. We're gonna talk about guitar, dude.
