Margaret on the guillotine - Morrison's own brand.

Any chance you can desolder it and photograph in more detail?

Valve preamps are a great halfway house between all tube and all solid state (or class D for that matter), my favourite of all being the Ampeg SVP PRO. I've also used mic preamps (TL Ivory 5051) and digital units (Zoom etc) straight into a power amp with good results. Once you decide to go modular the world of options really opens up.

About half of this forum is now green with envy!!

I had one of these as my first bass amp. I think I gave it away when I outgrew it, and it was worth every penny.

Hughes and Kettner Red Box was developed for exactly this situation.

You are MDP and I claim my £5! 😄

Surely you mean unleashed an SWR cab?

‘Kindergarten’ by FNM, featuring the 147th best bass solo in the world by Billy Gould.

Seems perfectly reasonable.

BMC is an awesome bit of kit and every bassist should have one.

Best RAT based pedal for bass that I’ve found is the Idiotbox Blowerbox. It doesn’t have a blend but It’s got tons of low end, so you don’t really need one.

Mr Self Destruct - NIN

I did this with mine when I had one - well worth taking the time to mod it.

For exact radii on corners you could always drill them, then rout between the drilled holes.

I have a router but with a bearing on the bottom - it came in handy for finishing off a custom scratch plate. I’d already routed the pickup cavity, so in effect that became my template. I cut out to approximately the correct size and shape in the scratch plate, then screwed it to the body, lowered the router bit into the cavity, and simply followed the contour of the cavity with the bottom bearing to finish off and neaten the hole in the plate.

Babylon's Burning - The Ruts

Flea's been acting since the mid 80's, he crops up in The Big Lebowsky, Back to the Future 2 and 3, and loads of other stuff...
