Assembled over quite a few years when money was tight, its a Dean Markley 150watt head and a with a Roland guitar Pre-amp. The cab is a Yamaha double 15" J bin but loaded with Jensen speakers. I chose the guitar pre-amp over a bass pre because there were no cheap secondhand bass pre's in those days and I was able to get very bright top end when needed, but roll off the treb and she has loads of bottom end grunt from the 15's. The Roland also has a built-in DI for connecting to FoH.

She's been a workhorse and doesn't do anything flash, but does everything I want from a bass amp.

Nice use of an axe pre there rob, I desire a pretty punchy sound for my bass tones within my band so I'l proabably benefit from a guitar pre too... So are you running that guitar pre into the preamp of the DM head?
