Take an appropriately sized hammer. Hit the tweeter.
great advice, you are already a better bassist than actual bassists
And that trace rig is like my dream rig from highschool.
Yeah Trace Elliott were the duck's nuts when we were in high school. Lament the 90s.
For real. I remember playing some moomba thing with the highschool stage band and getting a full trace stack as backline. Best day of my life to that point.

Hey, I resent that statement! I'm old school hatin' on tweeters.
Dynacord Rex just got a matching speaker column. 1962 model, probably been hanging on a wall somewhere boring because it looks brand new. Speakers were toast so I'm sticking a WGS G12C and a Cannabis Rex in it. Geil!

Is that going to be a Worship amp?
Not sure yet. We have a pretty good set up going on right now. Really don't know where it would go in Worship unless I start using it instead of my yba/verellen rig. I think it's just gonna be our back-up bass amp at the moment since I'm having issues fixing out V4, plus my Sound City keeps overheating. I liked it on bass more than on guitar though. Will probably be used more when we record.
Pretty cool amp so far. I had a 200s for a while that sounded great but was never loud enough. This 2000s is definitely loud. Here's a little comparison I wrote in the doom room between it and the model t:
This and the Model T are entirely different except being about the same volume. The Model T I can never get to stay clean. It's dirty no matter what guitar I use (well, at least at the volumes we play). Even with KT88's. The 2000s is much cleaner and obviously has that hi-fi thing going on. So it definitely sounds better with a nice boost or push to get some drive out of it. When it's cranked it starts to sound squishy and kinda loose in the low end (where the Model T stays kinda tight almost the whole volume spectrum). Yeah, idk, definitely different beasts. I'd use the T on guitar and 2000s on bass any day.
