    FS/FT: Ampeg SVT-3 Pro and SVT48HE

    NEW LOWER PRICES! $500 for the SVT-3 Pro, $300 for the SVT48HE, both paypal-ed and ground shipped/insured to the lower 48! I had the cab up before (http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=669920 but I kind of restricted my trades too much. I bought the SWR rig I was looking for, so I...

    NBD: Finally got my Hwy 1 P-bass!

    My salesguy at Guitar Center made me a good deal during their 4th of July sale and I ordered a Highway One Precision. I was torn between black and sunburst, but since they were both on backorder, I decided to go with the black. The backorder ship date was supposed to be the first week of August...

    SWR brass jacks?

    So, what is the significance of brass jacks on my SWR SM-500? I think I've seen them on some older SWRs, too. Am I getting extra vintage SWR mojo? Link Removed The 1/4" speaker jacks are brass too, but since I'm running it bridged and have to use the speakon jack I'm losing out on them.

    Best "SWR sound" cab? Goliath, Golight, or Triad?

    I just got a nice pre-Fender SM-500 and I'm now looking for a cab to match with it. I thought I really wanted a Triad, but now that I'm about to go buy one I'm having second thoughts. Maybe a Goliath would have the most "SWR" sound? And what about a 4x10 Golight? Help?!

    SOLD FT Ampeg SVT48HE

    I have a cool little Ampeg SVT48HE cab I got in a bundle with some other stuff. Unfortunately it didn't fit in with my plans and hasn't gotten the love it deserves. So, I'd like to trade it off and let someone else enjoy it. I've seen different specs on the 'net, but here is what I got from...

    Mis-matched knobs and pots on MIM Jazz?

    I got a nice 2006 standard Jazz from a buddy of mine. Got it home and had a close look at it and the knobs on the two volume controls are different: Link Removed The neck volume control knob doesn't have a set screw. So I popped off the control plate and the neck pot is different too...

    Mike Inez custom Ampeg SVT18

    I know Ampeg has been running some ads featuring Mike Inez of Alice in Chains and showing his SVT18 cabs. I think a recent issue of Bass Player mag had an interview with him and in his equipment list it has some reference to custom deeper SVT18 cabs. Then I ran across Link Removed, if you click...

    Ampeg V4BH variation - blue labeling?

    I've found a NOS Ampeg V4BH for sale. I'm trying to get an idea of what differences there might be other than cosmetics. This one has the black tolex with "Classic" type grill cloth and white piping. The printing on the faceplate is white except for the legends around the knobs and the script...

    The (un) Official 18"+ club

    Since I see our "little" 15" buddies have a club, I thought it only fitting for there to be a club dedicated to the master of fat round bottom, the 18". Oh, and since they are few and far between, all of those over 18" are welcome too. I'd personally like to see someone boomin' the Fostex 31.5"...

    Ampeg SVT-48HE 4x8" Classic series cab?

    Doing more research I figured out I have a SVT-48HE cab and they just put the serial number sticker over the model number I got what I think was a great deal today, an Ampeg SVT-3 Pro, a SVT18 and the piece I can't find any information on, an I48HI (that's i48hi) 4x8" Classic series cab...

    Looking for sub $1k combo that can hit open E

    Howdy, I'm looking for a small combo for learning/practice that can realistically get down to open E. I bought a Line 6 Studio 110, but it isn't really cutting it. I'm thinking I'll need something with a 15". I've found a decent deal on an Ampeg BA115HP (~$500) or a Fender Bassman 250/115...
