So- the one odd ball Brutus bothered me... that and I couldn't easily do one bass knob to all 3 Amps. So... I found one to match the two I had.

Matching amps!

And another Carver EQ. This one for the SUBS.

430554_2353051724011_1745144218_n.jpg

Meanwhile.... my motor crapped out (pretty much in need of a full upper motor rebuild). So- the van didn't get driven too much... and got a bit dirty.
