There’s no competition with your rig, I was just throwing some filler in there

If I were to wanna do a stereo rig with my DSLs does that fit with the Combo category (they're both 1x12s GB + G12H30
)? Not sure I'll get up the ambition to move them away from the shelving unit, but then again I've been doing more this summer than I have in years so who knows?

It doesn’t fit with the combo category as it’s a single combo amp. BUT it does fit in the W/D/W or Multi Amp category. So post them bitches up!

Oh! I didn't see that category.
If I get ambitious, I may go all out and do my Katana/Mesa cab, DSLs flanking it. It's a hell of a racket when it's all fired up. One of my favorite "get together to jam with a drummer" setups.

I beg to differ!!! I can actually see myself voting against my self on the Bass Rig.
It's a good thing we don't have to post clips along with the pics because, that Walkabout sounds KILLER!!!!

The bass was $299 brand new (thanks 1998) and the bass head/cab were $300

And the pile of blondes is tough to beat in the vintage zone. I can make it interesting but no real challenge to that kinda sex.

Easy. Just tell me what you have to offer, and it’s put in the pool. Once the final vote off of overall battle of the rig is completed we go by order of winner to pick a prize from the pool. So first prize winner takes their pick (usually through me so I know what’s left and no one picks the same thing someone else got), then 2nd prize takes theirs, etc. I’ll pm the prize holder the person who picked their prize and their address and they ship it out.
