my recommendation is to sell the carvin 1x15 (why you have 2 15s and no 10s is beyond me) and pick up a 2x10 cab to put on top. you'll have a hell of a lot easier time not muddying up your sound.[/IMG]

Why 2 15s is just 'cause that's what I stumbled into for no money. *shrug* Not ideal, but it makes the loud. That's definitely in my game plan, though.

[IMG]as far as replacement pickups are concerned, you have only so many options because your bass is routed to take EMG pickups. i have a feeling you'd probably be satisfied with getting a set of EMG 40DCs in there, it'll give you all the output you'll need and youll mess yourself with how huge it'll sound with the sansamp. i'd recommend upgrading the preamp in the bass too if you're going to go that route though. basically its 2 choices: money to burn - EMGs, no money to burn - passives.
