i play a custom fender bass that i built myself. my backup is a gibson epiphone that i custom refurbished. my amp is a Mesa Big block 750 and at my house i use just a 410 cab but i usually stack that on top of my mesa cab which is a 410 +115. sooo 8x10" and 1x15" with 750 watts at 2 ohms= crazy wall o sound. plus my effects and whatnot. heres a pic of my room setup
the head i have cost like 1700 (im still paying for that **** but its worth it) and the cab i actually got for free from one of my friends. usually 410's cost like about 400 bucks.
