SWEEEEEET!
If I had the muscles to actually lift one of those onto the top of an 810 I'd be ll over that.

Just picked up an SVT from GC...

I LOVE SVT's, and the SVT-CL is my 2nd favorite (2 non-pro is my fav). 900$ is really good - did it come with new tubes or did you have to put new ones in after you bought it? I always had to put new tubes in my used SVT's 
I'm now inspired to go out to tonight's gig at the Sagebrush with my SVT-VR & 810. Nice!
Came with the new tubes. Still trying to figure out the weird white noise that comes on for 2 seconds when I turn standby off. The low G vibration makes the amp breakup a bit at high volume, maybe a loose tube. Little annoyances that I need to fix...I'm super ocd but this head sounds so good!
Here's my funky logo svt but I really like the logo myself. And this one, so I was told, was the anniversary year and had the old style badge. That's really why I was gassin for it. Call me shallow but when you pair it with an 810 you will not be sorry you got it. Oh you did steal it too. I paid 1200 bones for mine. But don't regret it one bit. By the serial number mine is a 94. Is that's an ampeg anniversary???

By the way what's your - 15 pad input doing because mine has been acting stupid lately. It has a noticeably lower volume and is cutting in and out. Sometimes it goes to full sound and then back to muted level. I was thinking about pulling it out and checking the input to see if it has a loose connection or a bad solder connection. My luck though, it will not be that easy of a fix.
Well it was the 25th year of the SVT but I don't think they commemorated it with a special edition. Missed opportunity.
Well he just told me that that year had the old scroll badge but I have never seen another one like that. He may have just bought it from fliptops and put it on there.
I thought it wasn't till the late 90's that they went back to the script logo. I think that badge with the lower case block letters is correct for that time period.
It wouldn't surprise me. But you know what. I'm glad he put that one on there cuz I like the block ones better. I can tell you if I ever sell it (which will never happen) I just buy but I have a problem with parting with anything, it will have a script badge on it for the new owner.
