It's a good thing to be able to be more versatile with as many instruments as you can.
Myself at a younger age before getting out of high school, was getting to be up there with brass horns. Trumpets, Coronets, Sousaphones, and French Horns. But the Roadie in me was wanting to be more of a Pro one, than a friend helping another friend's band. "On The Road Again".

I started playing trumpet, and coronet at home when I was about 7, taking lessons. Then later in schools.

Thanks, I think so too. A little bit of tuning in the head got the 210 cab. Good sound!

Very good. The settings in the pic are how it's set. It's pretty up right to set the way I like it. Simple amps for a simple old man. Image

Nothing wrong with simple. The less you have to mess with, the better. It means more playing time, although I would love to have an extra EQ option with the Orange, like I've said, but that could just be for the violin bass. I don't know how the Ibanez will sound through it, until the next couple of weeks, probably.

I bet that Ibanez is a killer in almost any amp it plays through.

Well, the only thing I've used with it is the Rumble 350 combo, and it does sound great through that. It's a solid instrument, that's for sure. Especially, now that I have flats on it. 8)

Ahhhhhh,............. a 2X10 combo. 2X10 combos, or cabs do sound pretty well.

That's true. I was original skeptical of a combo just using a 2 x 10" set up, then I got the Rumble 350. It does have the room in it to push some air, plus the porting on it. You can't always judge something because something that might have the same configuration might not work as well. In other words, don't base anything off of Carvin. :P

Your Rumble is a 2X10 powerhouse combo, to say the least. I like combos, I started with the 2X12 Kent combo. I had a Marshall MB210, and an MB410. Both had head problems the rendered them unplayable. That started me down the road to half stacks.

I've actually found your old posts about those on the Gibson site, when I was browsing around looking for info on those amps. I think they were around 2011, and you wound up going with a Hartke combo with the LH500 head. Your past lives on in the world wide web. :P
