Enjoy making noise when you get home. These are great amps
yeah, great choice.
My old amp was a Peavey TKO 115 . Great amp although very heavy. I will probably look at getting it repaired but it’s beyond my abilities @John_E
It weighs in at 7.2kg @terb
Good solid choice.
Okay @eric.kiser
I let 2 of our Brumbies through into the grass at the side of the house which is next to the outdoor area where I practice.
Our hand reared youngster took a stroll round to where I was sat,somehow got thr amp lead wrapped around her feet and panicked
The end result was the lead snapped and the amp pulled over but fortunately the little filly once she settled was fine.
The high output on the amp has ceased to make any noise and I’ve pulled the head out of the combo to find its all a big circuit board but no wiring. I was praying it was a busted wire or even just a buggered plug but no.
I will take it to a repairer at some point but I had been GASSING over a new combo recently so this just pushed things along
God this thing thumps.
There’s a group in town called The Old Farts looking for a bass player and it kind a spurred me on to get something bigger than my Ampeg.

This needs an award for weird ways equipment gets broken.
The MAC award
The statuette should be something appropriate, like a guitar being eaten by a giant koala.
I’m sorry for your pain, but honestly, that is the craziest way I’ve ever heard of equipment getting destroyed. I’ll second the vote for “the Mac award”!
At least you got a shiny new amp out of it! Gotta say from an aesthetics standpoint, the NUX looks badass.
Quite the story Mac…Do you think that maybe your horse didn’t like the music you play??
Maybe this forum could use a thread called “The ‘MAC’ Award” so that anyone who experiences crazy accidental gear destruction can share their mishaps
I guarantee you that after reading @Mac’s story about his horse and his amp, I will never play my bass or guitars around any barn animals…
I second this motion.
EDIT: Done.
And 45 days later the battery is dead again.
At this point I reckon the switch in the input jack isn’t functioning and the circuit is remaining on even with the cable removed.
I don’t think there’s an actual switch in the output jack… As far as I know, the active electronics are switched on when the circuit is completed by inserting the plug.
I had this issue and it was an improperly wired jack.
