    Hi @AKA looks like £25-30 with DPD who in my experience are the most reliable of the bunch and also provide very good tracking options, so £180 all in you get yourself a nice piece of Scandinavian Audio Engineering delivered to your door 👍

    Yes - no problem, but I would have to say that 'all bets are off' once the courier had collected it. Obviously I can photograph it being packed etc so you would know exactly what it looked like as it left the house.

    When I looked in to it, DPD wouldn't accept the length - nothing over one metre - so they would only take it as two packages - neck and body.

    (not a problem if you are happy to re-assemble it.)

    Parcel Force would take it but won't insure it!!

    I really don't like using Hermes or Yodel as they subcontract down to an old bloke in a beaten up van!

    I can look in to it a bit more.

    Where are you in Devon? Just wondering how near a train from you would get to me - possible meet up.

    Hi Bob, I sent you a pm a couple days ago, have you seen that?

  3. Well Bassbod! I thought I’d check  the 2 speakon cables that I have first, n like you mentioned! And bingo!  1 of them was faulty n giving me the problems that I had at my last gig, so not as bad as I was thinking, a new cable will sort that problem out, many thanks for the help, I also cleaned all the Jack inputs etc too as I hadn’t done that for a while, so all good here 👍

    Good chance its just dirt on contacts.   With the amp unplugged form the mains, put some switch cleaner on a jack plug and push in/out a few times - do this on the input sockets (including the one you don't use) as well as the effects loop send and return.  Also the speaker jack (if it isn't a Speakon).   Check all your cables...especially the speaker cable.   

    Ok I will try that, I’ve got some switch cleaner kicking about, I did try a few leads and also going direct into the amp n not via my Di box that I generally plug into, but was all the same so I’m thinking amp or speaker really, thanks I’ll let you know how it goes 👍

  5. Hi everyone, 

    Having an issue with my swr sm 500 bass amp or possibly my speaker cab, I noticed as I was setting up my gear for a gig last Friday evening the speaker cab, which is an swr 4 x 10 Goliath 3 cab, started to fart and splutter a bit when I played my Bass. At first I thought it may be the central tweeter on the speaker cab, but after 5 mins it cleared and seemed ok again, I turned my amp off to finish setting up, then turned it on again and the same thing happened, i’m glad to say that it was ok for the gig and I didn’t notice any distortion or spluttering coming from the cab. I’m thinking maybe an amp problem, possibly a valve, the amp has a preamp valve in it, would a dodgy valve cause this sort of problem? Or maybe something more serious in the amp or even maybe the central tweeter on the cab? Anyone else experienced similar? Thanks in advance! 

    Drew.
