Now for the Amp-??

[Mike D]

Well I posted a thread a while back for a practic amp..

Well I tested a bunch--none of them fliped my trigger

I have found my gear

the amp choices

1-Eden WT 550

2-GB shuttle 6.0

3- messa Boogie scout

cabinet

Eden 210 SXT

so far these are my choices--

What do you think of this match up of either amp with this cab.
Personally I liked em-sounded great.

This is more than i will ever need but damn what a sound..

WT550 gets my vote. I played that in a store a few weeks ago and it's on my wishlist. Absolutely loved it completely flat (first amp that has ever made me feel that way).

Go with Mesa. And may the Force be with you.

I've been using the Mesa Walkabout Scout 12" combo for years now, and I LOVE it!

I haven't tried Eden so I won't comment.

I have the Shuttle 6.0 and it is a modern classic imho. I won't be getting rid of it anytime soon. It sounds fantastic, has a lot of versatility and is LOUD.

I use it with an Epi UL2-112 and it is plenty for monitoring purposes with a five string. For gigs I can add another cab for 600W of tone goodness. I found the amps work very well with Musicman basses.

Genz Benz customer service is fantastic. On par with Musicman.

Mesa stuff is great by definition. I've owned one of their guitar amps and can testify that they don't play games in terms of quality.

I might try out the Mark bass stuff when I can find it-seems GC has them.

Some on here seem to like MB stuff alot.

How is the customer service at MB??

I say go back and try them again and take your time tweeking them,they are all great heads, It's really a personal choice for the sound your looking for.

Thanks again

I have a WT550 amp with D210XST and D212XLT cabs - both 4 ohm. The WT550 runs happily @ 2 ohm = 750 watts. I have never been disappointed.

If you play a variety of basses (I do...), the GB will do you right. Eden-wise, a WT-550 with 2 210XST's will be ALL you will ever need. Ever consider going a bit 'vintage'? There is pure magic between EBMM basses and Trace Elliot amps. Just a thought...
