Well, for whatever reason, the Scout radiating cabs can handle all of the bass freqs I can throw at them and do so without much effort. They also out-perform the other Mesa cabs I had before in terms of low end. I found what I was looking for, I was just looking in the wrong place for a awhile.
I'm with you Dave. We don't gig out much and I don't miss it. Playing at our guitar player's club once in awhile is fine with me.
