    Official Ampeg Portaflex Club

    Thanks for all the replies. Here is some additional photos provided by the seller. I'm leaning towards a '66. Say it is some sort of mismatch what do you think a fair price is? $1200-$1500?

    Official Ampeg Portaflex Club

    Beans-on-toast, thanks. That wiki page is gold. Judging by the photos of a real '64 it appears that sellers is most likely a '65 or '66. You'll notice in the pic I posted the inputs are labeled bass and guitar. There is also a patent number silk screened under the fuse. Something I believe was...

    Official Ampeg Portaflex Club

    Hi fellas, I have an opportunity to purchase a 64' B-15N. The seller claims that everything is original. The speaker codes appear to match (137 444) but I haven't date confirmed any of the other hardware/components yet. One thing that sticks out to me is that the knobs installed are not the...

    Getting some grrrrrrrind from a Mustang with flats?

    Do you mostly play finger style? If so try using a pick. A pick will give your flats more attack in the upper mids which will help breath new life into your OD pedals/ preamp.

    If you were gonna build a fEARFUL

    Have you had chance to play through the Faital's? If so how would you describe the mid range character? Sorry if you already mentioned this in another thread.

    Just curious as to why there isn't plans for a tube version of the 1515/66?

    What would you like to see in a cab kit?

    I voted for a 1x15 @ 8 ohms. I always liked having the option of running two cabs @ 4 ohms if need be. I would like to see a cab that is designed or voiced specifically for use with a tube amp. Honestly I not even sure what that means exactly. Now some people say that a sealed cab works best...

    Do I really need to spend 600 on a power conditioner?

    OP: Just curious on how you have the Sunn connected to the Crest? If I remember correctly, the Sunn Coliseum has a pre amp out. I hope that you are using the pre output and not the main out into to the Crest.

    Monolith MAGMA Bass Preamp

    I'm really impressed by the aesthetics of the rackmount. Well done. I would love to see a gut shot. I listened all the clips and have seen the video and I am quite surprised at the low amount of noise on the high gain settings. What I remember from the old Sunn Beta is that it was quite noisy at...

    EQ pedal?

    In bypass mode its dead quiet although I haven't heard it through headphones. I remember way back when there was a youtube video with guys using one in a studio application. You want to do a search on youtube. The only knock I can come up with is that the knob screening if really small and is...
