Saturday August,20.....Allodial Music Festival just outside of Metropolis IL....Five bands....eight hours of music. HOTTER than blazes! One of the bands was acting as host band and provided the very nice sounding PA and some of the stage gear. I reluctantly consented to use the modern 350 watt bass amp with aluminum cone 4x10 cabinet in order to save time and make things flow better between bands. Four songs into the set....the bass drops out. Shocked

Amp still working but really low volume. Stage crew boosts the volume on the amp and increases bass feed through the monitors. We still could not hear it. Tried one more song ....it just was not happening Confused

.....then Fox and I went to the trailer to pull the 34 year old Kustom 250 and 2x15 JBL cabinet. All became well. Cool

The Kustom also saw duty later that day as we did a 3 hour gig on the river front.I love it! BC
