Hi I have a lot of interest in the stingray special. Is there a current owner that use one with a ampeg svt-vr ? The ampeg doesn't seems to interact well with higher output basses. What's your experience? How is the new preamp.
I played a Special through a SVT at GC when I was checking out the basses (I kinda got pissy when they kept setting me up with MarkBass or Rumble combos). Anyway, it was glorious. I would not call the Special 18v preamp “high output.” It has more headroom, not gain.
