I use both Fender Jazz 5 string and Warwick Active 4 string.
It suits all the stuff I play, ranging from 50's Rock & Roll, through 60's,70's Heavier stuff, Southern Rock and a bit of country.
Good live and good in the studio, fan is only noticable when no one is speaking, which has never happened !
Tone Monster of an amp, wish I had had this years ago.
LURVE the Tube/ Gain, what a magic control, and when I want a clean sound no problem ! Great for pick, finger or slap.

I dont't use a back up, Given the Genz Benz Reputation for quality, don't think I will ever need one.
I have used GB gear before in the USA and never had a problem with it
I fully expect this to just keep going until I collapse on stage and then the band will sell it to the new bass player. . . .
General Comments
Been playing for about 30 years, have owned / used most major Brands of amps, cabs and Basses, some high end, some not so much.
Currently have this GB amp and an Ampeg B5R head,Accugroove 210L and a Schroder 12x12L plus an Ampeg 1x15 Cab.
I love this lttle powerhouse, and would def replace it if it was stolen or whatever. There is nothing I don't like about it. It would be nice if it had a built in tuner I suppose, but no big deal.
Best value amp I think I have ever bought.
