I was a T900 user and it’s true they are very uncoloured and loud They can offer warm and woolly too using one control to vary the amp sound I too used one with a Vanderkley cab and it was a superb pairing and best I had used .

Hopefully a sensible price ? Looks good though

I used mine on its own in the floor so I could use the tuner as required Not so sure I would of used mine sat on top of my amp and definitely wouldn’t stick it down but if it must sit on top get those neat anti slip mats and sit that on top of the Ashdown head. You might find Velcro will pull the paint finish off the amp when you remove it

5 👍 I had this amp and it’s wonderful with the Lfsys Monaco cab

I had the CT100 and when you learn the quirky EQ and preset buttons you find an amazing sounding and loud amp Gigged mine several times and loved its tone and thump They feel different too when you pluck a string

I play or have played both in bands and I can get away with some lead solos etc but that’s my limit I’m an excellent rythmn guitarist and I was a half decent rock bassist certainly good enough for all the bands I was part of over a 40yr period. The bass always felt the right instrument for me ( I’m a big tall guy and the bass feels more in proportion to my frame if that makes sense whereas I feel I dwarf a guitar a little ! So I would say the two overlap nicely if you put in the effort on both as they need differing skills and where your place is in a band etc

Ampeg V4B sounds amazing and sensible gigging volume Tried all the hybrid drive type amps and nothing comes close to a full valve amp pushed

If you like the Ampeg then go for the SVT212AV cab as they sound similar to the 610 in my opinion ( had both )

Having departed the world of bass playing I’ve crossed over to the GuitarChat world There must be about 3 members who post in there regularly so it’s a lonely place ! Im 100% all guitar playing now and enjoying the return to a 6 stringer

The Ampeg micro stack is under powered for bands in the main I had the head and it wasn’t great The TE Elf is better and with a decent cab is gig worthy I would try a few and look in the for sale section on here

Orange Terror TB500 mk2 would be perfect Low cost and great for rock / punk

My advice if using mid priced gear is Bass Combo with 115 or 2x10 500w If head then 500w minimum with a 210 or 212 cab For high end cabs like LFSYS or Barefaced the cab could ve a 112 or 110 cab but depends on if a loud drummer My personal fav rig ( but heavy ) was an Ampeg SVT212AV cab and that with a good 500w head or 100w tube amp would do any pub gig going For your musical styles a clean sounding amp would be better such as Ashdown RM500 or RM800 An old second hand Ampeg PF800 would also work well or Ashdown ABM600 too All comes down to weight I guess and tone you want

Alvarez do some great guitars Check out the AG60CE

As I’ve quit all things bass I’m back on guitar and joined the Guitarchat forum OMG it’s so quiet over there !!

Yes I am !! It’s a bargain for anyone if they fancy a drive to Suffolk

Or use a trolley !!
