Those are some great pictures! Looks like a tight stage, I have been playing on a few of those lately.

Those are 15s on their sides. Note their height vs. the width of the 19" rack equipment. You can't fit an 18 in a cabinet of that height.

GK NEO 15s" on the side. Stage was tight & that buys some real estate. Its a short depth rackmount with a Genz Shuttlemax 9.2, wireless & tuner.

Thanks Holdsg, its fantastic man. Honestly the warmth that the Mahogany has makes it so versatile. I still can get that Sterling aggression but its tamed a bit... hence why I'm in the market for a Maple Sterling 5HS with an ash body

Pictures still dont even do it justice

I'm currently playing an SWR Goliath III 4x10 with a WorkingPro 700, how's the punch on those 15's? I'm thinking of adding one to my rig, although I'm not sure my head will be enough to power a 4x10 8 ohm cab and a 15" as well.

Punch is pretty subjective so ill just describe the tone

not extended or deep, not really warm . The mids are aggressive and it cuts through the mix well . They can get warm with the right tube amp. I actually think it wouldn't be a great fit with ur swr 410. That's a sweet cab and the 115 neo won't add much to it. Plus a 15" is equal to a 210 so u would be overpowering it. Ur best bet is to add another matching cab for sure

Are you playing a coliseum? WoW! That's some serious power. Your poor keyboard player's little Roland looks tiny compared to your tower. :D

And then there's your bass.......oh my!

You know whats amazing is that the band & the crowd keeps telling me to turn up! I HATE blasting the crowd away so that its uncomfortable to be on the dance floor. In reality those 2x15s are about equivalent to a 410 so it looks more thunderous than it really is. Having the cabs up higher than a 410 is a total bonus. You have a much better read on your tone & volume than a 410 at your knees. I also find the off axis dispersion is quite better... Think line array that all the new PAs are going to. Not to mention having your amp & tuner at a better spot... and yes it looks bad ass ha ha

The rest of the band has in ear monitors & then they have those stand monitors. Those things get the job done and believe it or not I can't hear myself often!

I wish I knew how my band situation was going to work out... a PDN Green Sparkle maple neck matching HS Sterling 5HS would have been perfect too!
