    Hagstrom Super Swede bass

    Thanks for the replys. It looks like they are lovely basses. That Danish bass is actually the bass that I am interested in. I am a huge Jazz Bass fan. For the moment playing a Jazz 62AVRI. Many years ago I had a fantastic 74 Jazz bass that I stupidly traded. I am also Swedish but I dont live...

    Hello. I have seen on original 1980 Hagstrom Super Swede bass for sale. I am very interested in potentially buying it. The problem is that ist about 1000km away and i can not go there due to corona. Had anyone ever tried an original Super Swede. What are they like. They look very jazz bassish...

    Geddy Lee MIA vs 70s reissue MIA vs 74 AVRI vs 75 AVRI

    I am not sure how to edit things but should ofcourse be more balls and grunt. Not grint. Said that I am not sure that grunt is the right word. How about growling sound. Said that maybe a growling sound is not correct as it could be misunderstood to come from the growler. I like to play with...

    Geddy Lee MIA vs 70s reissue MIA vs 74 AVRI vs 75 AVRI

    I would love to but I live in France and it's not a country of Rock &Roll so it is very limited selection of interesting stuff. You should be happy if you go to a shop and they have one jazz bass in stock. Might have to go to LA shop around a bit. Have you tried the AVRI74? What's your opinion...

    Geddy Lee MIA vs 70s reissue MIA vs 74 AVRI vs 75 AVRI

    I am not 100% sure what I want more than that I want to reproduce the 73/74 I had 25 years ago. Comparing to the 62AVRI that I am using since 20 years ago from memory the original 73/74 had a chunkier neck and the sound had much balls and grint. For the neck chunky or not might not be the most...

    Dilemma. Which bass should I sell?

    As in the title. I need to down size as I need space, cash and don't play a lot any more. I will sell one of my basses but I don't know which one to keep as I love them both. I have a very cool surf green 62 AVRI Jazz Bass from 1989 that I bought 25 years ago and a Musicman Sterling HH that I...

    Which 4x10'' cab to go with Ampeg SVT-7 Pro?

    I am running a 410HLF with my bridged SVT4 and I am very happy with it but if i had the money i would replace it with a EBS NeoLine 410. Its much lighter and smaller, has much higher sensitivity and handles more power. It is just this small thing with the missing money. Jocke........

    How hard can you drive a tube amp?

    $ I would not worry about it. The numbers on the knobs means nothing. Does it sound good? Is it clean sound. As long as it is producing clean sound you are not over driving it. If it would be bad a old VOX ac30 or an old bassman would not have a very long life as the are always cranked up...

    Behringer Bass V-AMP Pro - Part II: Get On Back, Jack, Do It Again...

    So now I have been trying out my new V-amp with power amp and speaker. First I set the v-amp up as per CharlieC startup guide. I am running the v-amp through my Ampeg SVT4, using the power amp only and it is bridged to a Ampeg Svt410 HLF. My main bass is an active Musicman Sterling with double...
