Why didn't my photo show up? I followed the directions.

Dunno, I'm pretty useless at it myself. Do you have the image hosted on an external website? What's the url?
 
Here it is folks. Thats a massive rig. That would make my ears bleed.

Damn, that is a big rig... I'd like to have a go at making my ears bleed with it.

Biggest I've used had me splitting my signal into an Ampeg SVT into an Ampeg 8x10 cab and a Marshall JCM900 into a 4x12" cab. I was trying to get a really full distortion, but ended up ditching the guitar amp pretty quickly. It wasn't as good a sound as I was expecting and the Ampeg sounded better on its own.

Nice bass, by the way :)
 
You got a roadie with that thing? You are going to have a back like our old Hammond player.

Beautiful Bass! :D
2-15's AND 8-10's??? YIKES! :eek: I can hear the soundman complaining already, even louder than the guitar players!!! :p
Another 2-15 will come very soon. If you seen what my 2 guitarists play through (awesome full stacks), you would understand my need. Or could it just be I indulged myself a little? Umm..... :)

Great setup! I'm a firm believer that you can never have too many watts - just makes for greater headroom and cleaner sound, right? :p
Best guitar stack that I've ever played with is a HiWatt 100 watt head and 2 HiWatt 4x12 cabs, although I have heard great things about the Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifiers. :D

Yes, it's a P-bass lyte with active EMG's (18 volt ), not original. EMG's made a considerable difference compared to originals. Not a bad in the middle of the road bass.
 
Wow, beautiful bass, huge rig. Eden is very nice stuff, but I couldn't imagine loading that stuff in and out at each show. Do you guys have your own trailer, or do you just load it in SUV's and Vans?
