But if you had a big Trace Elliot instead - think how much per month you could save on your gym membership!

 

I have a 4x10 combo. Trouble is, my Orange Terror/GRbass cab suits blues rock and classic rock much better, so it's hard to work up enthusiasm for hauling it to a gig.

 For me, SWR coming onto the market was the big step forward for bass amplification. 

 

 

Same here, which is why I still own a Studio 220 head. TE and SWR were the ultimate bass amps of the '80s, at least in my book.

 

My "perfect" amp collection misses a few gems...a TE of some kind - preferably a preamp - along with an old Acoustic, Lab Series L2/L4 and the original version of Dynacord Bass King.

 

Funds are really not the problem here since all of these are quite inexpensive nowadays, but storage is a major issue...
