Members trey85stang Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 I just play them all at once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members suparsonic Posted December 2, 2008 Author Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 I just play them all at once That's always an option but a pain carting all that gear around. Last night I couldn't decide which amp to take to rehersals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr Songwriter Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 That's usually determined by the stuff you're going to be playing (mostly clean or mostly OD etc) plus volume requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vrm Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 I keep my two amps @ the rehearsal space, just a practice amp @ home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members suparsonic Posted December 2, 2008 Author Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 It normally depends on my mood. Herbert, 100b, Slo 100 or X99. I ended up taking the 100b Bogner, it was a good choice, I love that amp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ads Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 i know your dilema man. Too many amps and not enough time to play them all. I try to have one amp for each purpose such as large gigs, small gigs, jamming and practising but its not that easy. They all demand my attention and who am i to hold out on them. Its not their fault i have to work when i should be at home playing them. I dont deserve light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just funny to me. I'm very satisfied with my one amp but I'm still jealous of you guys who have Diezels, Bogners, Fenders, Voxs, etc to choose from.

Members Flogger59 Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 Depends on the situation. Small bar gigs = Studio .22. Larger bar gigs = 2 x 10 Super Amp. Bar gigs on the heavy side = T50, and outdoors = Showman. No problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members worldoftone Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yeah, I know what you mean. Sometimes can't decide for a blues night. Should I bring my '58 Bassman, '59 Bassman or my RI '59 Bassman? Then, should I add a reverb unit? Then there are the nights I am in a "brown" mood and I can't make up my mind if I want to bring my '61 Super, '63 Vibroverb or just maybe the '61 Twin or '63 Showman. Just horrible! A while back for a rock gig, I had such a dilemma. I wasn't sure if I should bring my '69 Marshall Super Bass, maybe the '73 SB? And which cabs? The '68 purple cab with the pre-rolas? Or maybe a '75 w/blackbacks? Possibly a combination of both. My JCM 800 cab works real well too. At one festival last year I played bass. I said the hell with it, I can't decide! So I brought my SVT Classic w 8 x 10 cab, '71 Marshall Major and an '81 Bassman 135 along with Fender 2 x 15 cab. - WOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jnurp Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 i have a decent amount of amps and what i always find myself doing is plugging into the amp i have neglected the longest, just to hear it again. Once in a while i will plug into the one that inspires me at the moment, but 9/10 times its the most neglected one lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However im going to be forced to sell it soon to make room for other gear purchases. Its probably the best made amp i ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members worldoftone Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 I have lots of amps but the Deluxe Reverb is the only one I play when gigging. Nothing wrong with that. A SFDR was my go-to amp for a couple of years. - WOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zachman Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 fixed Your fix seems redundant to me, since it isn't something that someone with a bunch of amps isn't already all too familiar with, you know (or maybe not) that guys with a bunch of gear who actually use it for more than a bedroom hobby are fully aware of... What is involved in transporting gear. :poke: I didn't assume the OP was using a rig for studio purposes (Where it is stationary, and not needing to be moved), or for a "Live rig". I just gave a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
