KASH Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I have a gig coming up and the house bass cab is a mesa boogie 1516. I won't be taking my 810 as it's overkill for the venue. I don't know if my GK 1001RB is a bit too much for the cab really. The house head is a trace of some kind, don't know the model...I just don't wanna blow the house cab. Any thoughts?

silverfoxnik Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 It's a 450 watt cab by all accounts... Should be OK provided you don't overdo it on your master volume..

My head will be pumping 700w @ 4ohms onto the cab...I think I'll take it with me anyway and give it a try. Not sure about PA support but it's a small venue so might just use backline, don't know yet.

warwickhunt Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Unless you go totally OTT/stupid, you shouldn't have any fears; just use common sense... and your ears! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] +1 Its a great all round cab and should hold earsplitting volumes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KASH Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 Cheers for the input guys. I'll take my head and use it wisely after all is always better to have 'my' sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
