Job finished off this morning - pics to follow. Thanks all.

Comprehensive answer - many thanks Bassislife 16

Can anyone suggest the best product to clean this gunked-up body please? The neck is in a similar state and the fretboard worse still!! Someone suggested to me Murphy's soap oil but would have to send away for that product if it's the right thing to use. Thanks.

I use channel 1 for an old vintage style tone and channel 2 for the Glowplug overdriven sounds. Works a treat. Cuts through the mix really well too.

Adds a veriety of warmth or driven tones to either my valve pre-amp channel or my non-valve channel on an Eden Metro combo - good investment I recon.

Keep knocking back the cocktails at their expense - wont matter that you're slurring your mimed notes towards the end of set. Play with no lead in the jack socket and see if anyone will notice - I very much doubt it!!!

Having recently bought turntable, power amp and speakers to get my collection of vinyls back into circulation, I put Solo in Soho on. As the last track on side 2 began, I had the realisation that that was the bass sound I search for. Having not listened to Talk of 79 in decades it was quite an eye-opener. What tracks have your ideal bass soung in them?

As I say above, head will only run at 2 or 4 ohns and all my cabs are 8 ohm so have to always carry the two cabinets. Worth the lugging tho!!!

M/M +Apeg = tone heaven.

Ampeg 210 added - the tone has been found. Sounds fantastic. Cant wait for this weeks band get-together. Differing cone sizes can gel together!!!

Is the driver fitted in a Vietnemese-made SVT115E Classic cab the same make , model and country of origin as a Made in USA cab?

I have an Ampeg 210 8 ohm cab on the way via silverfoxnik of this parish and also a second SVT115e. Will surely find what Im looking (hearing for) by combining two 115s or a 115 and a 210 together and then take it from there. Thanks for the many suggestions.

Haha - Shame that the 6 and the 8 are the only cabs which run at 4R - the 4 runs at 8R.

I only have the two cab option with the cabs I own at present. What sort of money do BF 610s run at? Any idea? The BFM cab is for sale as it happens.

Nik - great words, particularly regarding my boy!!! Means a lot. Regards to you, Paddy.

I can totally recommend dealing with this gentleman - great comms, more than reasonable pricing and a down to earth guy to boot. Thanks for a completely pain-free experience. Regards to you Nik, Paddy515.

Correct, 2 or 4R - thats why a one cab option for me with 3 x 8 ohm cabs to choose from, is out.Need to run two together.

4 Ohm cab?

I cant drive just one cab as they are all 8 ohm and the head will only run at 2 or 4 ohms, thats why I have to run two cabs together. The best tones come from running the SVT115 together with the 112 ( really have the Eden 210 to sit on top of my Eden Metro combo to give me 4 x 10" stack) but Im sure the tones could be better with the addition of another Ampeg cab of some sort. Seems running 2 x 115 SVT Classics may well be the best way forward.

Having played two practices and two gigs with my recently aquired SVT 2 non-pro coupled with an SVT 115 Classic 8 ohm cab and EITHER an Eden David 210 (8 ohm) made at/by Marshall in the UK OR with a Bill Fitzmaurice designed 112 cab (also 8 ohm) containing a high quality driver ( Eminence 3012HO kappalite). Not happy with either combination to be honest. Would I be best to find another SVT115 to match my existing one, or go for either an Ampeg 210, 112 or 212 (if yes, which one?)to give me a better chance of finding my "sound"? Any second cab needs to be an 8 ohm one to run at 4 ohms combined. Ive even run the 210 with the 112 and like that combo even less!! Any advice will be greatfully recieved. Thanks all.

Interested what you say regarding your Fender Squier P-bass Special with the Jazz width neck. Did all these with the Standard Series logos have US pups or had the one you aquired had a swap-out?

Sent again. Paddy.
