The Phil Jones Bass BG-80 Double Four Plus 90W bass combo

Phil Jones Bass BG-80 Double Four Plus 90W bass combo

Sure, not exactly what you’d call a bargain-priced practice amp, but it’s worth every penny…and it’s louder than my friend’s Fender Rumble 100 no matter the volume setting. My friend didn’t want to admit it but he was definitely green with envy. Funny thing is, he laughed when I walked through the door with it. He thought it was one of those plastic battery-powered amps like the Laney NX or the Blackstar Fly.

He couldn’t believe it when I plugged in.

I have the Bass Cub Pro (5”) in my work apartment (playing right now) - everything PJB makes is inexplicably awesome. I honestly don’t know how they do it. I picked up a Compact 4x5” just because I found one at a crazy low price.

And yes, not cheap but loud and so so so good sounding.

I also have the old briefcase amp (again found it for a great price) and also sounds amazing even though it’s old tech. Hooray for Phil!

Interesting, I recently bought one of these and thought it sounded great, but was very quiet. My Laney RB2 30W amp is way louder.

I missed out on a Briefcase amp a few years ago and still regret it.

I’ve tried the Laney…decent little amp for a nice price.
