Hartke B combo, has a lot of high frequency response i think.

Kustom KBA combo, the 100watts one uses the deep end amp head which has a lot of low end

Marshall B150, nt sure how good is it though, never really went tat deep into marshall stuff

Crate combo, has built in distortion

Roland Cube Bass, tones of effects

Laney RB series, although they're lyk 300watts

and many more. lol.


what's ur budget btw?
and are you looking for combo or head with cab?

My suggestion is the Eden Nemesis Series combos. Price range is about $400 - $500 if I remember correctly. You can check them out at Davis.

i tried this just yesterday. Mike's a nice guy as usual.. but that aside.

the amp is extremely powerful and boomy. don't be put off by the brand name, i'd seriously recommend this one. the tiltback design could be a hit or miss though.

i don't really like laney amps

you can check out the hartkes though, do they have hydrive combos? i didn't check

SWR has a really sweet tone, it's a good amp brand but in recent times people seem to be disliking it for whatever reason
