[xrockstrongox]

Ampeg SVT 5Pro.

Music Instrument stories that had a wide variety of items, and a lot of them.

roland sh-101 (keytar lives!!!)
View attachment 904634

I still have my SH101 in my closet somewhere.

 

[Stranger Danger]

I'm sure someone mentioned it already but a Peavey T40 that doesn't weigh 38 lbs would be sweet!

 

[metron]

A couple of the raven labs units, the headphone amp and the blender. Those are the only ones I used anyway.

Ahhhh if only that page was true! There is only 1 new old stock left for $4800 so like I said no new manufacturing

 

[bassteacher99]

and they still exist at kubicki.com

They don't ....the website is just outdated, only 1 new old stock exists and its $4800 once mike sells that there are no plans to make another unfortunately.

 

[Fretless1!]

Fender Roscoe Beck bass

Yes! Yes! That was my first thought. A fretless version as an option .

edited: A 5 string fretless version would be the last bass I'd ever need.

I guess I have to jump in with the Sunn guys. Those 2x15 200s and 2000s boxes were simply the goods.
I guess that means we have to get back the JBL D140F too, it was part of the winning hand.

They sound good with Faital 15PR400 drivers, too, actually.

Fryette has acquired and revived the Sound City mark.

But are they making the kind with the active EQ?

Gibson The Ripper L9-S

The Gibson EB bass
Gibson SS thunderbird.

Can't believe no one has mentioned the 1970s Morley Power Wah Boost/Fuzz pedals!

I think it's been Invalid Link Removed.

Fender Precision Bass Flats however they were made back in the late 60's early 70's.

 

[Biggbass]

Kustom tuck & roll amps...but with better components on the inside. IF the product designers at Kustom had any smarts they would have done that already.

Really wish Fender would bring back the Deluxe FMT / QMT jazz basses! (Please Fender, please?)

22 frets, quilt maple (QMT) and flame maple tops (FMT). Blocks and binding! I guess they realized that it had too many high-end features for a general factory production model. Maybe it just wasn't cost-effective. I think you'd have to go to the Custom Shop for all these features nowadays.

If anyone out there remembers getting one of these in a store, please chime in!

Apart from everything decent Gibson ever made, Fender Modern Player Teles and Pawn Shop Mustangs. Basses with big humbuckers are just better, these days everything just has some P/J combination. Snooze.
