I think I need that pedal!

Agree 100% on the Thunderfunk but I'm not sure you'll find a TFB-550 under $600.

Even though I am primarily a bass player, I have owned virtually every amp that Andy has put into production with the exception of the Mantis (metal). I also worked for Andy for a number of years so I'm a bit biased but I like to think I'm one of the "many bass players who asked for a bass amp that reflected the same commitment to tone that our guitar amps have."

I've been waiting since about 2001 (or 2002 ... my memory is shot) for this amp to go into production. Of course, now that it's a reality, I can't afford it! 8-(

You guys should also check out Andy's bass pedal, Jersey Thunder. I'm waiting for one of those to show up one day.

Hi Boomer, nice rig, Interesting bass.
It is a joy to play.

The only thing I've done to it, besides having Melancon do a full setup and fret dress recently, is replace the stock DiMarzio DP120 with a Sadowsky P bass pickup. Huge difference!

The bass weighs in a just a bit over 7.5 pounds and has an extremely comfortable Jazz bass sized neck, ash body and maple neck.

Thanks, Mark.

I replaced an Aguilar GS115 and GS210 with the Henry.

I wrote SWR trying to date this particular cab. It's certainly pre-Fender and may be from the first run ever with serial number 249. No response from SWR/Fender ... naturally!

It is in need of recovering. The carpet on the bottom is almost gone.

Playing classic rock and blues ...
