Yamaha RBX260 bass. Need to thank our good friend Steve (the resident guitar tech) for turning me onto the Yamaha line.

Amp came today.
Looks like FedEx let it tumble or something. 3 of the 4 corner protectors were shattered into peices. The fuse had gotten jared loose and was stuck in the cooling grill. Way to go FedEx!!! :confused:

Other than that, I plugged the fuse back in and it fired up. Sounds great. Very powerful little amp. Lots of umph behind it.

Called Hartke, they are sending me 4 new replacement corners. VERY cool. I was expecting them to tell me to contact Amazon, where then, Amazon would have told me to contact FedEx. But, nope... Hartke took care of it. :cool:

Off the topic. I noticed you are from Portland, OR. I have some friends up there whom are great, great artists and musicians. I have played guitar for Gavin Castleton whom lives up there, and am fans with a band named The Blue Cranes. Both are amazing talents and residing in your back yard. Here are some links to there stuff.
