I have good news and bad news.

The good news is my SVT 2 Pro got delivered. The bad news is it goes into fault mode. I took the 6550's in to get them tested and had a cathode to grid short that took out two other tubes. UPS does it again they must have banged it around. The up side is I getting 6 more matched sovteks for ZIP:D
 
OK my modded 1960Ampeg Jet 12 bass preamp/guitar amp is completely finished and I am using it exclusively now.
This little amp is studio quality and the bass preamp tone versatility is very huge.I am very happy with it. I have more pics when I can figure out how to post more than two at a time.

Thats kind of what I want I just wish i could stack them :mad: I am assuming he had them running side by side.

yeah he had them on a raised platform maybe 2-3 feet high that ran all along the back of the stage (the stage was maybe 10-15 feet deep). He had his racked gear - head, tuner, power conditioner - sitting in the middle of either cab

cab - rack - cab
----platform----

it was pretty cool.

the fact that he was playing the most beautiful spector I've ever seen probably helped too ;)
 
I'm in.
Two weeks ago I took delivery of a B-100R, my first Ampeg gear in over 20 years. It was a newer old stock model.

Gigged 3 times (country/roots rock) since then. Gonna need a DI soon, though; anyone try an SVT-DI with this small an amp?

I'm gonna like this amp a lot, I think.

I've used the SVT DI very successfully with the Portabass equipment. Very nice coloration.
