Whatever you do, don't go for the Behringer tuner. i had one and it didn't see the low B and was pretty flaky with the E string aswell. Mike pisanek had the same problem so it wasn't an isolated incident. That's why i went for the Korg - works perfectly. I've not heard anything good about behringer from anyone - mostly regrets that they didn't save a little extra and buy something that actually works.

beaver is holding a used 1602 for 499
500 watts-4ohms
bridged 1600
i think that should be enough

The 1602 is a good amp. I use one for PA monitors and sometimes bridged for the mains. The price appears to be inline with the current used prices.

there is one on ebay ending in 8hrs at 299 currently
thanks keith much appreciated

bsee

$400 has been the typical target for a used 1602, $500 for a 2402.

Flax, did you score the 1602 on ebay? I'm with Keith and think it will serve you well.  
 
BTW, I have one piece of Behringer gear that has never let me down. I have their PX 2000 UltraPatch Pro patch bay. Of course, I set it up in my studio and haven't changed anything since, so I haven't exceeded the 10 insertions limit on the contact points! LOL
 
Good luck!

flaxattack

no
it went for 340 w.shipping
beaver offered my 499 with a 4 mount rack case
6 of 1 1.2 of the other
something goes wrong and i have recourse
thanks

rraymond

Bummer. But, what the heck, $499 with a 4 space rack ain't too bad. You'll want one.
 
When you get this system up and running, you'll have to get us a report - after you've got it broken in, or course. For an EUB I've got a Zeta Crossover upright which sounds great through my B2, I really want to hear your opinions on the Classico!

dan got a chance to noodle on wolf- was his first time on a balance k and he loved the feel of the ti's i went back to... nothing feels like ti flats..

Flax you sould have a great rig for most any situation. I ran 10'sand 15's for years. I know that some at Alembic are partial to the 15's. So you have the best of those 2 worlds. Interesting thing, I used the B4 cab with the F1X SF2 3402 set up in a studio after they found it difficult to mic up the whappo jr. Track was a combo of miced cab, sansamp di and groovetubes tube di. So I can now say the B4 was out of the house once. Catch up with you later in the week for the epi.
