    Do a SVT and the 8x10 fit into a Westfalia van?

    There is the kitchen setup but without chairs so I should be ok. I will follow your advises and remove what I can before the I pack my amp. Thanks:bassist:

    Do a SVT and the 8x10 fit into a Westfalia van?

    Hi, I need to move my SVT and his cabinet and I can borrow a VW Westfalia. Surprisingly I found no info about this match... Do someone knows if it fits? Both are made in 1974 as a random fact. Thanks.

    Polyurethane for fingerboard

    Rosewood is a quite dense and stable wood so finishing is not needed to protect it from strings and normal humidity changes. Applying Lemon oil with a rag is a good way to keep it in shape.

    Is my db 212 speaker blown?

    Finally, none of that solved the problem, the scratchy sound is still there. I should consider another driver :hmm:

    Is my db 212 speaker blown?

    thanks for the tip. I removed the driver and a wire was pinched between the bow and the contour of the speaker. the wire seems to be damaged because it is flat just before the connector. I am thinking about cutting two inches of it and reinstalling the connector.

    Is my db 212 speaker blown?

    I use a 8 ohms aguilar db 212 with a mesa M6 set flat and when I play a low F or E, I get a rattling sound from one speaker. This sound is not present when I play other notes and it does the same thing with a bergantino 112 that I recently got, used... Do I have to replace those speakers?

    A good p bass wiring diagram?

    In the fender diagram there is a wire going from the volume pot to an element numbered 15. What would be this element and what would it change to wire this to the bridge instead of wiring the jack to it?
