Just out of morbid curiosity, how does one acquire a glockenklang in the US, anyway?

Scroll down, there's a USA distributor and several shops that sell Glockenklang...

I have recently bought a Phil Jones Bass, Briefcase combo 100w amp. It's great as a practice amp and has a really good sound with my Alembics even with a low B. I haven;'t used it out of the house yet but would imagine for a small winebar or restaurant gig where you dont need loads of power, it would be fine. It's also designed for housing a rechargeable battery or clipping to a car battery for portable use.

The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

I recently tried out a Mark Bass 102p 2x10 combo. I liked the vintage loudspeaker emulator. You could dial in sounds similar to a B-15,a Showman,etc. It also has a VPF control..more or less a scoop effect. We combined it with a 1x15 cab and it produced a pretty full sound.
Also tried the Gallien Kruger 2x10 combo whitch was nice.
As Bob mentioned above,Schroeder (and other makers) make airhead cabinets, so you could still combine separates to get closer to what you're looking for.

I still like my Peavy TKO- 85W rms with a Sheffield 15 speaker. I use it at church every Sunday and take it to small gigs.It weighs 75# so it is heavy to more. It's real clean and goes well with Flame Koa Essence.Michael
