Your FULL STACK to HALF-STACK to COMBO experience ratio onstage?

[skunkyfunk]

Here is how to answer the poll:  Just think of the ratio or proper proportion of how many times you plugged into a full stack, half-stack, and combo during a gig. 

Mine is:

0:7:3

(Never plugged to a full-stack onstage, and out of 10 times I played live, 6 was on a half-stack (which I bring), 4 was on a combo.) 

Just in case you didn't know:


Full Stack


Half-stack


Combo

kaylangan ba mesa boogie?.. at sa stage/gigs lang?....

kung sa gigs lang - 1:2:7

kung pati sa ibang bagay (including gigs, recordings, oldskool times, etc.) - 2:2:8  


i dont know how i came up with these figures...i just thought about those times and ayun...parang kay chino nakagamit ako ng full and half stacks nung high school...old skool amps...

ngayon, pag sa SM or malaking openfield yung venue laging halfstack minsan full pa...baka sa feb. 28 maka full ulit.. other than that, i usually resort to combos used at the smal venues...

may ganun kayo dati sa school?.. hanep.. olats kami sa ganyan eh.. akalain mo ba, nagbattle of the bands sa school minsan tapos bring your own amps.. and pinrovide lang ay drumset pati yung speakers para sa mic.. hanep..

@chino nasan yung other 4?
0:2:8

sir boogsy, what other 4?  


EDIT: should the ratio add up to 10? or 100%?..
kasi i thought, the number of times you plugged sa full, half, or combo.. 

0:0:10

yep, ROTO pa yung tatak ng head...pero hindi din ganun kaayos...madalas madali yung fuse...tapos yung mga cabs natatanggal mga screen cloth... bubuhatin namin lahat yun pag may gig... unfortunately, hindi namentain mga yun..yung guitarra at bass dati genuine fenders...yung bass naputol yung neck...sayang..hindi pa namin alam na jazzbass yun...anyway...those were the days...

[inot1105]

@chino, ideally yes...pero ayos lang yan!...

[boogsy]

@chino: hey that got me confused too. Hahaha.. I was under the impression that skunky was asking for an average ratio for every 10 times you've played live. Otherwise, yeah just a straight tally makes sense too.

sucks when you overanalyze things.

cool.. thanks bro..

Puro combo ata ako. Hahaha..

Or if I'm not mistaken, mga 2 to 3 times na ko nakagamit ng 4x12 na 1.

Tremoverb oh...Yummy.

[aHeartThatNeverFade]

0:2(having my third this april):every sunday is a combo amp   lols (di pa kasama yung gumamit ako outside our church)

[studiowan]

isang beses ko pa lang na experience makagamit ng full stack na amp way back 1998 may battle of the bands dito sa laguna, half stack mga around 20x na siguro usually pag out of town gigs ad mga big events like summerslam, combo amps countless na typical gigs dito sa atin and usually pa dinadala ko yung amp ko

[akosimic]

combo: cant remember (since this is the default amp usually in bars)
half-stack: cant recall all the amps
full-stack: mga ilang beses na rin ang full stack...full stack of [gooey brown stuff]

[bryanarzaga]

full stack: 1
halfstack: alot in live gigs all marshalls lol

here's my old one in pinas cheap valvestate


combo: same as above mostly peavey transtube, marshalls, fenders, but if my brother was free ill have him bring my fave one..this was before i had other amps

-plugged into a full stack a few times but when you are miked and run a DI, it becomes less of a necessity and more for showmanship. besides, i have to lug around my own gear and tube heads + Mesa Recto cabinets are NOT light.
-i primarily own heads so for most gigs I go halfstack with either a 1x12 or 2x12 for larger clubs and combo/ext1x12 for smaller gigs. in either case, i end up being miked most of the time.

Ilan watts? Nagagamit mo talaga sa gig much of the wattage?
