    Do you happen to remember what the impedance of the speaker was by any chance?

    SWR 8x10 Tower Replacement Driver?

    One of the speakers in my Workingman's 810 just went out on me so I'd love to know what anyone found out as far as replacements go. I'm probably going to take it to a speaker repair place, to try and preserve the original parts and specs, but in the even that it's a goner some options would be nice.

    Kramer Neck swap project! (Lotsa pictures)

    I'm contemplating something eerily similar. I'd love to know how this project turned out!

    Jackson branded 12AX7/EL-34

    Guess they're still for sale, just found that they're listed on CL. Are they even worth buying for $10?

    SWR WorkingMan's TOWER information needed

    I'm actually looking into buying the twin of your cab. I asked the fellow selling it to check out the speakers, and he said the only thing they really had on 'em was '130050E'. I'm taking a bet that the 'E' stands for Eminence. Yes, the thought of someday having to potentially replace a seaker...

    ibanez SR bridge problem! really common?

    I bought a used ltd B5E recently, didn't like the weight and I've always been an Ibanez guy. Swapped it for an SR 505T, and took the strings off as soon as I got home. In putting new strings on, I encountered this now infamous bridge issue. I was pretty devastated. After a thorough searching of...

    Geezer Butler signature pick ups

    Man, that's rough. I'm always on the lookout for another one, myself. It just fits me. No, I'm not in Wildspeaker, but I am good friends with the whole band. Good spot, though! Funnily enough, my band will be recording a demo with them Sunday. Super stoked, because I have't recorded in over a...

    Geezer Butler signature pick ups

    Yezzir! From The Jabberwocky and (much later) Dungeons and Dragons. It's used as an adjective to describe something that's deadly sharp, which is how I see my baby. Back on topic! Thanks to everyone who's contributed to this thread, after reading every last entry I've learned quite a lot! I'm...

    Geezer Butler signature pick ups

    Recently installed the P/J set in my Ibanez RD727 bass. When I bought the bass a few years back, someone had swapped out the stock pickups for a Spector P and a Jackson J. The P was semi-grindy on it's own, but far too dark and muddy. The j solo'd was simply anemic and useless. I assume they...

    Have you sold it yet? I was in negotiations to get one locally, and it was snatched out from under my nose at the last second.

    Sunn Coliseum Lead Conversion to Bass Amp?

    I'm looking into buying a Coliseum Lead myself, and it looks quite a bit different... Also, yours says 'Concert Lead' on the front...Regardless of what kind of amp it actually is, it's definitely a Sunn, and I bet it sounds killer for bass. I second the 2x15 idea, but really any bass guitar...
