Nick spotted these guys in Hall 9 and said I might find it interesting - sure did! ;-]
Back in the day I used to play bass, and when the 'Redhead' combo amp from SWR came out I got one of the first ones to hit the UK shores... it was ground-breaking at the time, with an amazing sounding compact cabinet, together with an amp with more features than most bass rigs of that time.
Fast forward a few more years than I care to admit, and it looks like Sonic Farm are the new guys on the block in that department; they were showing their Tantra bass (pre)amp paired with a really interesting cab design from MAS - in fact the Tantra is co-branded with MAS too, Michael Arnopol was involved in the design.
Together they've really pushed the envelope - The Tantra through a MAS cab sounded simply awesome!
So I asked Sonic Farm guru Zoran Todorivic to give us the low down of what it's all about.
