    I'm a bass player, but have a guitar setup to mess around with and for other people to use at my house. A 1977 tele through a 1959 5E7 Bandmaster. It primarily gets used to lay down chord changes on tape to play over when writing bass lines. The only thing I changed was brass saddles and a four way switch.

    Blackstars are cool and modeling technology has come a long way. it would be beneficial for a studio setup to have that many sounds on tap.

    Exactly my thinking.
    And I can still use my dry Crate gx-20r for other things.

    Gotta check and see if I still got a connection at sweetwater.

    i'm mostly a guitarist, my main rig is a 1972 Ampeg V4 (Ampeg SVT's little brother), that amp will be buried with me. but i recently started playing bass for a buddy's project and scored a 1970s Sunn Coliseum and a 1960s Sunn 2x15 that i paired with a standard Ampeg 8x10. total overkill, but now i can pop and slap the audience to death.

    The Coliseum PA head?

    I should clarify - when I said bass, I meant double bass, not bass guitar. :D One of these.

    I rock a Jet City 2212c (I think that's the model). Designed by Soldano. Alex from Science amps actually put me onto it, as I wanted a smaller combo but didn't want to pay boutique pricing :)

    Nice "59"
    The seller is a friend of mine and vintage collector Eric Ernest who I purchased my 81/82 a code, Kramer Voyager from.

    Gulp! If I could afford to own that, I’d be afraid to play it!

    Hmmm......2 more "84's" just showed up on reverb. $430 for the rs440. And $935 for the 1300tr.

    Already have a 1300tr.

    The red 440 looks like it's pretty collector grade and I need that color. Not sure if I should wait on a price drop, make an offer or just snag it. Decisions, decisions.

    Don’t know where this thread has been my whole life.

    I have a strat and some offbrand acoustic meant to imitate a Taylor. Sound quality doesn’t lie though. Looking for a Les Paul now.
