My home rig completed and stacked up(pics inside)

[Loserchief]

actually this is what i use at home,my Powerball and the 4x12s aren't in the pictures since they are at rehearsal.
So today i picked up my new and actually first bass amp from a good friend who didn't need it any longer. I got a great deal and i'm totally happy.
I stacked up all the stuff i use at home and thought it looked cool enough to take pics.
What's in it you ask? I'll go from bottom to top:

- Hughes & Kettner BC 410 Cab: This turns out to be part of the early Bassbase series and it's actually a 800€ cab. The sound from this thing is clear with lots of attack and some serious thumb. great cab and not too heavy

- Engl Sovereign 100 Vintage 1x12: What more is there to say? That amp is a monster in itself. it deserves its name.

-Warwick Pro Fet 3.2: 300W Solidstate head. Pretty basic, but i like the sound it gives me and there's enough flexibility in it for a lot of styles. Simple but sturdy.

And my freind(who plays in a Death/Grind band) sprayed a white chainsaw on the grill since he thought the cab looked boring. I included a pic with the grill on for supreme grindcore cheesyness. I'll probably overspray it again(black), or find some steel grill for it.

I actually like the chainsaw.

Ok, i'm officially coupling this thread with the question: should i keep the chainsaw, overspray it, find a steel grill or spray on something else?

I say overspray it, just plain black.

Nice setup!

I also say lose the chainsaw. Go back to black.

I say keep it, it's pretty cool/unique looking. The next day people will be saying "The guitarist was pretty cool, he had a chainsaw on his amp"

Rather than "The guitarist was pretty cool."

Thats almost a whole extra second that you will be on their tongues. And then their friends will look for the band with the dude with a chainsaw on his amp.

Chainsaw looks a little plain.

Needs streaks of blood running across it...

That'd be TOTALLY metal.

Are you in a metal band?

Well it's a Bass cab actually. I just stacked guitar and bass amps together since it looks better and saves room. But you could be right about possible reactions

I'm in a Metal Band but as a guitarist not bassist. On Bass i'm in a fusion jazz band and the saw just looks kinda unfitting for the style we're playing. On the other hand i have the offer to join a more technical metal band as their bassist.
