my 1820 has the aluminum dust cap :D man that 3620 is sweet..

judging by how close the speakers are, that appears to be an 1810 I had some trouble getting a truck to haul my 1820 from the old house to the new. People kept asking "it won't fit in my car?" "no.. really.. it's about the size of a washer or dryer.." I love it though. And I do like the...

I've been offered a Peavey Musician 400 Series head for almost nothing. As awesome as it is for old it is and the shape it's in cosmetically, I may not be able to afford a "paperweight" (for lack of a better word). It powers on and there's definitely a signal, but it's total fartsville at...

I actually know someone who got a cheap-o dean 4 string (I think it was $100 on sale). I play it every time I go over there and it's action is very surprisingly nice. Doesn't play or sound like a cheap-o, and it slaps/plucks with the fury. I have to say I wouldn't mind having one as a "don't...

Scored the 2x15! $50 -AND it sounds good.. I was happy with the $250 I paid for my 1820, this is great. I'm having some issues sending pics from my phone to my email, but I'll definitely put up pics of it all together when I can. Also sucks because I also got a Peavey Musician 400 Series head...

nailed it! :D

Peavey 1820 with a Marshall MB4210 and I just might score a same era Peavey 2x15 tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

IMVHO, I think Ampeg's a little guilty of that, too. Never tried H&K bass gear, but I do like their guitar amps very much.

ESP ltd F-255, neck thru, 5 string, active pickups/eq, and it's BUTTER. love, love, LOVE my ESP. sorry for the stock photo, I'm dealing with some camera phone issues

Squier Vintage Modified Fretless Jazz Bass

Diamond Series 4 string

I watch craigslist every day. Even if I'm not in the market for anything, I like to know what's out there and how things are doing. Any time I find something I'm not personally familiar with, I research it. That always leads me to talkbass. So after cruising threads for a while, I decided it...

I took the roundwounds off that came on my vintage modified fretless I bought and put the d'addario flatwound chromes on it and loved it. they were a lot brighter than I thought they'd be.

Ha! That's awesome. I had a GK head I ran through an Ampeg 410 and I wasn't happy. I sold em off. I almost went with an Ampeg B2r, but honestly the Marshall did what I needed it to do and gave me more options as far as cab setup. And I was already looking at the head and found that it came in...

This is my rig. It's a Marshall MB4210 combo (2x10 + horn) sitting on an old Peavey 1820 (1x18 + 2x10) 450 watts @ 2 ohms. People will tell you something's no good without having ANY knowlege of it firsthand. People will also tell you something's no good if it's not Ampeg or other "rich...
