Members burnthiscorpse Posted October 5, 2008 Members Share Posted October 5, 2008 so now that i've sold all my gear except my G&L 4 and gone back to playing guitar......I have the sneaking suspicion that i may be asked to play bass in the coming months for a rapidly growing regional band. so i'm gonna put a bass rig together 1) to have onhand for the hell of it2) just incase i get the offer. whatever i get needs to be able to take a serious pounding. just had a mesa powerhouse 1000 cab and owned tons of ampeg 8x10's undecided on 10's or 15's or mixing.was thinking GK RB 1001II with a sansamp or just a QSC or Crown with a Sansamp for power. questions: who makes a good 2x15 besides mesa that doesnt cost a mint? (need 2) which hartke cabs are the "good" ones ?who makes a good 6x10 besides ampeg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 82Daion Posted October 5, 2008 Members Share Posted October 5, 2008 Musician's Friend has scratch-n-dent Eden 215's for about $600 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members james on bass Posted October 5, 2008 Members Share Posted October 5, 2008 If you go with Hartke, go with the XL series. Stay away from the Transporter or VX series. Haven't heard much about their new hybrid style cabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members matthewbass Posted October 6, 2008 Members Share Posted October 6, 2008 Eden cabs are definitely some great sounding and tough speakers. Aguilar cabs are also killer! I would ditch Hartke forever and go with an Aguilar 412. It'll be better than any Ampeg 810 you've ever heard, guaranteed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
