have owned my svt 450h for nearly 4 years now, made in vietnam, never had any trouble with it, just a bit on the heavy side weight wise! thanks mick.

hi all, ive got a little mark 2 head, problem is when i switch it on, it makes a slow whirring noise, sounds like the fan is struggling to get going but after about 30-60 seconds its fine with no noise, just wondered if this is a common problem with these heads or do i need to replace the fan? thanks mick.

hello mate, for years ive always used ampeg gear, have now gone to markbass! LM2 head, 104hf + 102hf cabs, the sound is superb! its not heavy at all, very portable! the VLE & VPF filters are a godsend! and yes markbass gear is fairly expensive new, if you buy used you can get a good deal if your in the right place at the right time!! when im at practise sessions i just use the 4x10 on its own, the head runs at 300w @ 8ohms and it can do `LOUD`with the 2x10 and 4x10 its monster!! cheers mick.

hello all, im running an ampeg svt 450h head, 2x10 + 1x18 svt cabs, the master volume is set at 3 0`clock, but when i turn the gain towards 11 0`clock the green limit light flickers, am i harming the speakers? there is also a red `peak` light next to the gain control, would that be bad news if the `peak` light come on? thanks herman.

hi all, im running a svt450h solid state head, great sound until my missus turns the bathroom light on! or when any electrical appliance is on, when the fridge/freezer kicks in it comes out from speaker cabs! is there any way to cure this problem? it drives me insane! thanks herman.

Very nice to meet you 'Herman'; hope you're enjoying my blonde! Just got to get to grips with trying to control the tones on the Warwick - quite a shock after the pick up and play ease of a 'Ray, but will be great when I get the hang of it! Andy[/quote] what a great trade andy, i put the post up last night for a stingray and about 14 hours later im the proud owner of a natural blonde! my dinner is still in microwave from about 4pm, i cant put this fab bass down! had a play around with controls on the markbass head and got some awesome slap tones! and a bit of chorus pedal even better! hope you enjoy the streamer moonbass! all the best, mick.

[quote name='Bass_Guardian' post='1073806' date='Dec 31 2010, 04:28 PM']My lakland has a slap tone to die for IMO haha. I prefer it over a MIM jazz by far. P bass has a nice chunky slap tone. Whats your budget?[/quote] what im looking at is doing a trade/swap for my warwick bass, ive also got an ampeg svt 450h head and svt 18 cab in very good condition that i dont need anymore, i would like to find a maple neck musicman stingray if anyone has got one to trade? black or natural colour body would be nice! thanks mick.

hi all, im looking at buying another bass, im really getting in to slap/funk style, im using a markbass head 2x10 and 4x10hf cabs, ive got a warwick lx streamer jazzman, very powerful active bass! which i could be selling soon, im not keen on warwick sound, so not sure what to go for yet? is there any expert slap players that could give me some solid advice please! many thanks, mick.
