    200s speaker options

    I have a chance to buy an empty 200s cabinet. I plan to use this cabinet with my custom low wattage (30-150w) tube heads. My only concerns are alternate drivers that will fit in the cabinet. I'm looking for some other users experiences with this cabinet using something other than JBL D140...

    Sammi Speakers

Plugging them into WinISD Beta I came up with a 10+ cu/ft box for each driver. Obviously this is not practical. would...

    Looking for a new Cab for my 120W Tube Head

    For the last few years I have been using a TL-606 with a EVM15B Driven by my custom 120W Bass head (Think ch1 Alembic F2B/ ch2 B-15 with 120W tube power behind it). While I enjoy the cabinet I think that a different cab will get me closer to my Ideal sound. I use a P-bass and I really like a...

    Rickenbacker Finish Issues

    I bought a 4003 18 months ago, I love the bass and play it a lot. Recently I was traveling for work for an extended time and the bass sat in its case for two and a half months. When I opened the case yesterday I noticed some hazing in the finish at the base the 12th, 13th, 15th, 16th frets. The...

    EB3 Pickups

    FYI I rewired my EB according to the series 1 schematics available. The difference is nothing short of amazing. much clearer and a slight bump in level. A worth while change. BTW I did not include the Bass filter circuit.

    EB3 Pickups

    I am really confused. I was measuring the pickups on my new/used EB3 and found that the Bridge was only 6.98K and the neck was 1.34K. Could this be correct? I checked a few resistors on hand to verify my meter and it is working correctly. I additionally checked my '57 P and found that it reads...

    Official Ampeg Portaflex Club Part IV: Never Too Much

    I was wondering if someone could help. A while ago I built a B-18N (see page 9 for pics) I have decided that I would like to build an 18" cabinet to go along with it. Currently I am using an EVM-15B in a TL606 Cabinet, it sounds good but it is missing something that drove me to this model in the...

    Acoustic 126 Speaker

    I think that I have an odd ball amp. It is an '82 mine does not have the foot switchable eq it is in the circuit all the time and mine is constructed differently (circuit boards are different).
