Hello there guys
I'm looking to move into the world of a seperate head and cab, and I would appreciate a little input.
I'm currently running a homemade 5 string Jazz bass with MM Stingray pickups and preamp and an Ibanez SR305 thorugh an ever increasing pedalbaord into an Ashdown EB180-15 Combo amp.
The Ashdown is fine for practicing at home when I am not competeing with a frantic drummer and 2 or occasionally 3 guitarists. I love the sound of the Ashdown (the warmth and calrity), so I'm thinking maybe something in one of their higher ranges would be a good place to look.
As far as cabinets go, I was considering a 4 x 10 but was unsure of where would be a good starting point.
My main music shop is the Nevada Music warehouse in Portsmouth, and they have a pretty wide range of amps available such as Ashdowns, Orange, Trace Elliot, some Markbass, some Genz Benz and some Eden stuff. I really don't know where to start
Price wise, I'm probabaly looking at roughly £1000 for a head and a cab.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Thank you
