This bass looks stunning and is very easy to play. The thin neck feels great and allows very fast playing. The sound is good, although for slap, it doesn't beat the passive sound of my Hohner B Bass VI Professional, which has more raw charakter to it. Still, this Ibanez has articulate, sweet yet punchy, and modern sound.

I was a bit hesitant to get this amp as I had previously had bad luck with Hartke stuff (Bass Attack 2) but I saw this for a good price so I gave it a go. I love the sound! It is really easy to get a great sound out of this and the power is impressive too! It is an old school amp, so you won't carry it in a gigbag, but the sound is worth it!

If you want the Sansamp sound, this will take you very close for a fragment of price. I still prefer Sansamp but got this as backup and some settings sound great on their own right!

My sound goes direct from Sansamp to FOH, so I use my amp and cabs only for my stage monitoring. Therefore I didn't want to spend fortune on the cabs and Peavey Headliner 410 looked great for the price. They are sealed construction so the sound is very punchy, more than any other cab I had tried before. Are there better sounding cabs on the market? Sure, but I dare to say you will pay a lot more for cabs that will be "a little" better. I liked the cab so much that I got another one (well, these two cabs with a 500W amp must shake ground, even just one wields incredible power)!
