    Best year(s) for a Gibson Thunderbird?

    Any experiences with late 90's early 00's T-Birds? Heard most of them had great tone and QC.

    Aguilar DB210 or Bergantino CN210

    Considering I plan on continuing to use my 1001rb-ii, at 460W/8ohm, it should be plenty compatible with either cab without overloading so long as I don't pump my volume, which has never been about 11 o'clock anyways, correct? (CN210 - 400W, DB210 350W). By the way, thanks for all the input.

    Aguilar DB210 or Bergantino CN210

    I've just always been biased to the tones I've gotten from 10's, but I'm not necessarily biased toward GK. Different tone is okay. I have an Ampeg 8x10 SVT and I love the sound of that too. Would probably gig with that if it was feasible. I was hoping for gigging testimonials on the Aggie and...

    I considered it, but I'd like to stick with 10's.

    Aguilar DB210 or Bergantino CN210

    I'm hoping someone might have experience with both of these cabs that can give me some insight. Been using a GK 1001rb-ii with a GK Neo 4x10 for about the last 7 years or so. I've been really happy with the tone I get from this rig, but I'm looking to downsize while at least retaining tone...

    Vintage Ampeg SVT model/date?

    Thanks guys, and sorry for the couple of faulty links...don't know why they didn't work. How about model names? Was this amp known as just an "SVT"? "SVT-300"? "SVT-300 Black Line"?

    Vintage Ampeg SVT model/date?

    Just picked up this head. Can someone help me more fully identify this amp just by looking at it and comparing specific qualities with other known models? Looking for a year/era and specific model name. The serial number was a sticker and it fell off. Were the vintage Ampeg SVTs called just that...

    Ampeg 810en

    Hey JimmyM, noticed you know your ampeg stuff if I'm not mistaken.. Are you pretty good with dating/serial numbers? Got another potential cab.. This one is vintage SVT. Serial #53243. Serial number is located behind grill on lower section of housing... Not on back plate by outputs. Nothing I've...

    Ampeg 810en

    I have an opportunity to by a '99 Ampeg 810-en. The good ol' OSB years. He wants $300-$400. I haven't played it yet, but it seems like a deal of a lifetime even if it has that muddy sound - given the fact I've read plenty about swapping out Jensen mod10s. Its also road worn with torn tolex on...

    Need help dating and locating origin of Jaco Tribute Bass

    Does anyone know where these basses were crafted or know where I can find info regarding this? I'm referring to the "non-relic" model. I'm also tying to date my bass. Any info on understanding the Fender Tribute Model Serial Numbers?
