Are musicians just a bunch of whiney pussbags now-a-days? Rig Talk is about the only forum where you don’t get shat on for mentioning 100 watt amps and big 412 or larger cabs. Apparently we’re the last haven for those who like big gear and big sound.
I don’t frequent other forums, but do skim topics now and again when trying to look up specs or do some research. I swear its nonstop 20 watts is all you need, big cabs are too heavy, 1x12 grab and go combo, and how much does the guitar weigh. Top it off with silent stages and wanting gear that fits in your backpack. Even bass players are all “check out my amp the size and weight of a note card.” “I go DI to board, speakers are too heavy to bring to a gig.”
What the fuck??? Are you a musician or are you a fucking pussy that barely has the strength to hold a pick. Heavy gear comes with the territory. If it weighs too much for your limp dick ass to move then get the fuck out!
This’ll sound like old man yelling at clouds…. I came from the days of the 1000 lb peavey combo amps. It was either that or all 100 watt half and full stacks. No one bitched about “it’s too heavy.” Fuck all what it weighed. You just deadlifted your shit and lugged it down the block.
Screw all this lightweight pussy horse shit everyone else is after. When I finally expand my space later this year (hopefully) I’m building myself some 4x15 cabs.
