Another big Boogie Walkabout fan. Own a 12" speaker model.

Small, light, warm tube tone, lots of power (300 watts), an EQ that actually works, an adjustable crossover between the horn & speaker. If you need to hurt someone, add an additional 12" extension cab and you are done.
I'm just happy to be here.

I have a Genz Benz GB100, works for me. It makes a great amp to use for band practice. When I need more power I use my Hartke 3500 head and 4-10 bottom and the 15 in the gb cabinet. I think i have finally found the sound I have been looking for. WAIT, when my new ric gets here, I can run stereo. DAMN.LOL

I like my B200R; Inexpensive, looks cool.
Oh yeah; doesn't sound half bad either Image

It might be a wee airy for some, but it does
a 72 4001 quite well.

+1 for the Walkabout!
Lots of tube tone, light weight and expandable.
As always, YMMV, so go try a bunch out if you can.
