    Help me date this 810

    So I picked up a SVT-810E for a relatively good price, but I'm having trouble dating it. I have not pulled any speakers yet. Images - It's a plywood cab with a single input. The serial number barely exists, which makes things challenging. The guy I bought it from got it 12 years ago in...

    EMG-P With Harness

    Older set of EMG-P pickups and the wiring harness. I had to clip the leads to the battery, but I can reconnect those before shipping if the buyer wants, free of charge. These are probably from 2001ish or so. They are in great shape and sound fantastic. Near drop in for your bass. $65...

    NBD - My First Five

    I've been an exclusive four string player for years, and for just as long I've been a P-bass player. I've been on the lookout, casually, for a 5 string or a Jazz bass. Not long ago I picked up an 80's E-Series Squier Jazz, but my guitar player's wife liked it more than I did, so it moved in...

    Preamp Question

    My old workhorse precision bass currently has an older set of EMG active pickups in it, and I'm strongly considering swapping them out for passives (P-46). Since the body is already routed for a battery, I was also thinking about installing a preamp. So my questions are: 1. Are there any...

    Two Eminence Legend CA154s - What Cab?

    I have two Eminence Legend CA154s and I'd like to optimize them. I have a schematic that allows me to run them seperately at 4ohms or together at 8, which meets my purposes. What I'd like to know is what cab best suits these drivers? - prefab/existing cab or home build? - sealed or ported...

    Another "What Cab" Question - Home Practice Edition

    My current home practice rig is an Ampeg B-15 (orphan head) plugged into the cab of a BT-15 (complete). I plan on selling the BT-15 (in the classifieds already, but it's an old ad) since it never gets used and I can't hook up one of my other amps (V4BH or PF350) to it. What is everyone's...

    Another Noisy Output Jack

    I picked up a new-to-me Jazz bass the other day, but the output is very noisy, just about regardless of the position of the cable. The only thing that makes it stop is pushing in the cable (it will move in a few more mm's from the "plugged in" position), but that isn't practical. Replace...

    Japanese Squier Jazz Bass E-Series - Value?

    Going to look at one of these tonight. Assuming it's in good shape (two small nicks to the wood in the back, lower area - nickel sized) how much should I expect to pay? Serial starts with E6. I hate these posts, so thanks in advance.

    Replacement Saddle Height Adjustment Screw

    Does anyone know the part number or size for a saddle height adjustment screw for a 2010 Fender American P-Bass? Mine are black in color, if it makes a difference. Thanks!

    2010 P-Bass Pickup Info

    I just recently picked up a 2010 American Standard P-Bass for a song ( http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/nbd-another-fender-p-1005526/ ) I really like the sound, but I also like to mess around. Can someone give me more info on the pickups that came stock in these basses. I'm considering...

    NBD - (another Fender P)

    Found this bass (2010 American Standard) listed online at a local shop (Atomic). Went there with some guitars (six and seven string variety) that I never played. They were asking $849 with a HSC, and instantly knocked the price down to $739. I then got $550 in credit for my trades. It has a...

    Help Identify/Value Fender P-Bass

    I'm considering getting a P-Bass from a local music store, and I want to check to see if the value was fair, or if there is some room to haggle. I have no clue what "model" it is, but my gut tells me it's an American standard from 2010. If that's the case, that price seems a bit on the high...

    1967 Ampeg BT-15 (Maryland)

    1967 Ampeg BT-15 Portaflex Bass Amp. 50 watt, 1x15 combo with dolly. Classic 60's tone. Solid state "fliptop" amplifier in okay cosmetic condition. Electroluminescent panel not working, but should be an easy fix. Small fixes have been done to stop rattling, but still has a vintage look. You...

    NBD?

    Well, I've actually had the bass since I was in high school (about 17 years now). It started off white with a rosewood neck, then it got a BAD refinish to black with a graphite neck. After playing it forever like that, I thought I would let it evolve again. Build thread...

    Another Ampeg PF350 Question

    I have a little bit of an oddball setup: 1967 Ampeg BT-15 into a Mosvalve power amp, going "stereo" out into each side of my 2x15, with each speaker getting 80 watts. Details on the wiring here: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f15/peavey-2x15-project-complete-823227/ The cab can run...

    Looking for $60 plus shipping in the CONUS. Two big pictures of the bridge. The front has normal wear from use. The back has some surface level scratches where I removed an old finish that adhered better the bridge than the bass, but nothing through the powder coat. Includes screws. There is...

    Badass II vs Squier CV Bridge

    I'm currently looking into trades for my black Badass II bridge (see the classifieds). I've been looking for a straight up trade for a chrome one, but I've also been thinking about another option. I bought the Badass 2 way back when, before I really knew much. I've seen mixed reviews here...

    NPD: NoiseKICK FX "Gritty Hall"

    So I was cruising the Baltimore craigslist and I found a Russian Muff clone. Nothing special as an effect, but this one had a vintage scene from the early 1900's Baltimore fire on it. I'm originally from Chicago, but I've grown a soft spot for the Charm City in the years that I've lived and...

    Refreshing an Old Friend (MIM P-Bass rebuild/refinish)

    My very first bass is long gone. It was an Epiphone P-Bass copy, covered in stickers, etc. My parents got me it when I was 15, and I stuck with it long enough that they bought me my first "real" bass (the Epiphone moved to Philly and got destroyed on stage, according to a friend). I had been...

    FS/FT Moses Graphite Neck

    I have a Moses graphite P-bass neck that has been on my main bass for about 10 years. It has a couple nicks from being well loved, but is in otherwise great shape. The bass was recently setup by my tech and he had no problem getting a nice, low action. The tuners are now included, but they...

    Another Active to Passive Question

    I have a MIM Fender Cowpoke (P/J config) with the stock pickups. I play with flats, and the pickup blend is mostly (2/3rds or more P). I want to change up the sound a little. It's hard to explain, but it just doesn't sound "right" to me. My other P-Bass has EMG actives (it's been so long...

    B25-B Cab Modification

    So I'm putting together a strange rig. I currently have a B-15NF for home use, and for playing out/practice I use a BT-15 (solid state) into a Mosvalve MV-925 into a 8ohms 1x15. It's not ideal, as the Mosvalve is a 4ohms output, and I need to move a little more air. I've got the BT-15 and...
