Hi Guys,.its been a while !Ive been drooling over the 04, 65 Twin Custom 15 Guitar Amp,and what strikes me is the Eminence 15" ,instead of two 12"
A good deal of my Musician friends say this Amp is is the one to beat in the"twin "category,
However,... i play bass!
Given the the fact that it uses a 15", uncommon these days instead of 12's, could I use this for bass Guitar and keyboard work, in a small club or studio enviroment?IF so,. its a given then, i will pick up one for my studio as chances are i will be playing though it alot myself.,as well as guitar players that might record here
Your input allways appreciated
thanks guys
Rob

The old Fenders have great low end response (one of the things that give them their characteristic warm punchy clean tone), and I know a few who use them for bass, keyboard, pedal steel etc. In a studio situation they are very versatile, and should be good for bass at small live gigs. The open back cabinet will won't control excursion of the 15 as well as the sealed bass cabs, but if you watch the volume it should work well.
Just because it has a 15 doesn't mean it will reproduce bass well. If it wasn't made as a bass amp I would not do it. It might sound fine at low volume but things get very tricky when you start going low and try to make big db - esp with a tube amp. On the other hand, if it meets your needs do it. The trap is that you get into a gig situation and you want a little more thump and it won't be there - then what? t.
