I think I'm in a good place as regards finding a set up that can deliver the sound I have in my head and be portable and good quality.
I would like to thank the Basschatters who sold me the kit, it was a pleasure doing business and thanks for being brave enough to buy the gear in the first place and then sell it on at such great prices. This is what the forum is about, getting good advice, good deals and meeting some sound people.
So, the cab sounds beautiful with the Avalon, very rich and warm, deep and clear and it has a brutal slap tone(good grief ).
It ain't the most flexible set up, no fx loop and no eq or compression but I will use the eq of my basses to alter any tones I need. The cab has a preset eq and limiting curve, so I'll try that(just remembered that one ) and if I want any fx, I'll put my GT6B in front of the Avalon.
All in all, a very happy bunny.
