Thanks for the responses guys. I was originally planning to get another 15 cab to pair. I can always try it out later down the road. I’ll give these 10s a shot! Plucky, I love the eminence legend! The 15 cab belonged to a good friend of mine who passed away 15 years ago. He was an early...

Hey all, Wanted to share my rig that I recently downsized and share some opinions. Found a 210he on the marketplace practically brand new. I didn’t know they made this cab and it got me kicking around the idea of downsizing but keeping the SVT classic sound. I was using a 410 / 115 together...

Hey all, I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction for this capacitor located on the volume pot of the Gibson DC tribute bass. It’s a push/pull pot. Looks like it reads BC but I can’t make the numbers out. I’m getting ready to pull the pickguard upon next restring to get better...

It sounds great! I wasn’t sure what capacitor was on the pot for the Gibson dc tribute I used as reference, so I installed whatever I had that I thought would work but the difference when I use the push/pull is subtle to none. Gotta figure out what this is

Well, here it is! Pawn shop jag-stang lol

Pickup route complete. I used a template for a thunderbird style Gibson pickup but it was slightly too small compared to the dc tribute bass pickup. I started it with the template then placed it around each corner opening it up to fit. I went to the same depth measured from the dc tribute bass...

Yeah buddy

Boom just curled the edge now it’s official. At this point I think it looks awesome as is not gonna bother painting it lol

Wow that looks awesome! I’m getting ready to paint mine now, just finished all the routing. I have a nice mim mustang neck with a rosewood board I’m pairing with it

Good catch, I was curious about how that fit. But yeah stainless. I didn’t hear anything but I didn’t really turn it up either so I’ll find out. Might be able to have it bent. It was a freebie I won’t complain either way

Undecided on whether to paint or not

That font is awesome! Was that pre generated or can you write custom stuff? I need one to say JAG-STANG BASS for a special build

Alright no response from sweetwater. I hit my buddy up at the metal shop and he was able to cut me a piece from what they had in stock! Thanks for the responses!

Thanks for the info! I do have a friend that works in a metal shop that could do it I just don’t have an example to go off of. I was definitely considering that. I reached out to Ampeg but got the autobot reply, they said I could ask sweetwater. I shot my rep a message we’ll see what he says...

Hey all, I’m sure this has been asked before. I purchased a ‘96 Ampeg SVT Classic from reverb, works great just missing the original backplate/grill. Does anyone have a link to an authentic replacement? It does have a makeshift metal cover but I would like to get an original if possible.
