I have the amp and so does a friend of mine. He recently told me he is maxed out on the volume to compete with his band. I couldn't believe it. I've never had an issue with volume on the amp and I play with 2 gits, keys and a drummer. Has anybody ever had this thought as well?
I kind of told him he's gotta have the amp set wrong. I just don't see that is possible with any band.
BTW, his cabs are a RS10 and RS212.
Hi joeglow,
did your friend set the preset level properly? As I have read some times and in different forums this was the reason for complaints about the volume.

I tried to explain that to him. I haven't had to mess with doing that since I first got it but if I recall correctly, keeping the Master Volume at 0, turn the gain until the red light comes on and then back off a little bit, then raise the master volume. It's been a while since I did this and can't remember the procedure 100%.
Re read your manual.. It will tell you how to set the input level.
You should actually do this with every different bass you plug in the amp.
I have never experienced this amp being unable to keep up with any group I have played with.
Set correctly this head rocks with the loudest of them and barely gets warm.

I have had this issue as well. Have you got an active bass? My Fender Jazz was running low on the battery level - after changing them, it has boosted the volume considerably. I do agree, though, that it doesn't 'feel' like it;s giving 450 watts...
