Hi Russ
yes i am a greedy git when it comes to swr gear,
but where were you when i was selling one of my 4 ohm swr 2x 10 cabs about 5 weeks ago
Anyway if you're in the market for buying an swr 1x15 cab there might be one up for offer soon
But no probs with the advice & once again.
Best wishes, there's plenty of good ones out there. -
Hi there
As one the resident swr users on this forum, i'd say its a difficult one to call.
I have 4 of these cabs, but i use the 8 ohm versions, i also seen this on ebay too.
The original swr drivers are punchy, tight & very clear sounding with lots of tone, i have never
used eminance drivers so i can't really say what they would sound like.
So i'd definately say my advice would be to demo these if you live close enough to do so, especially
as the ones advertised states that the tweeter doesn't work, which would suggest they may have been overdriven
in the past, so imho there's 2 reasons which accounts for why the original drivers have been replaced.
If this was me i'd probably wait as swr are about to release a version 4 of the goliath series which is meant
to have more power handling than the current 350 watt version 3's, so that may mean there maybe some good deals
to be had on the s/h market soon.
Best wishes

Hi Chris
Just looking in the build diary threads i came a cross this

hope that this link works -
Hi redzombie
The only advice i can offer is to keep the ashdown amp sound as flat &
as clean as you can & the same with the tonepump preamp &
let the sansamp do most of the work, then slowly add the tonepump
pre to taste.
Hope that this helps -
Oh my word !!!!
what a stunner she is, now that is what i call porn
Congrats on what looks an absoulute beauty, i bet you're happy with this one
i guess she's well worth waiting for.
Please post some sound clips asap.
Well done Mr Shuker on another job well done. -
Recently sold a bass case to Kev, i found him very easy to deal with
& he paid promptly too .

I've played one of these, they have one in my local pmt store & imho
i really like them, they're very light in weight, it has a slim jazz type neck
as well as a very slim body which makes feel closer to your body gives the overall
impression that its very fast to play & has a general good feel about it.
Anyway i've never being a seymour duncan pickup person but i was impressed with the
pickups & the pre-amp built into this, for me the only letdown is the bridge, which felt a bit
flimsy & wouldn't keep the bass in tune on a long gig for too many songs. So for me that
would be the first thing that i would look to replace.
I loved the colouring on this bass, which reminded me of my jazz bass special i used to have in the late
eighties, but looking at the paint job closely doesn't seem as good, so i think this bass would quickly get
mojo'd within a short space of time if used regularly.
I've always wondered what a p-bass body & jazz the pickups combination would sound like
& did consider customising one of my squire p-basses to make it like this.
So my overall impression was very good ^_^ , if for only the retail price which is around the
£600-700 mark but i'm sure you'll see cheaper online, but its slightly more than i'm prepared to pay
right now, otherwise i would probably be the proud owner of one. -
Still a stunning sounding cab though & in great condition
sold at that price cos of its age.
Bargain i'd say -
Note to all !!!
This is now sold
Thanks to all interested parties & of course the buyer
If a mod can please edit the title to reflect this i would be most grateful. -
yes i can vouch for these basses lovely
i used to own an all black one in the late 80's -
Cheers Alex
Pleasure meeting you & doing business with you. -
If i remember rightly, this is the company that Steve W Rabe worked for

I'm sure it certainly would
-

Hi all,
I believe one of the cabs he's aiming he questions towards is the swr 2x10 i have up for sale.
i have pm'd him offering him a chance to demo the said item as he lives not too far away from me.
Oh! Aj pm sent -
I agree with Toasted, Emg's would sound great.
imho they would sound far more punchier & clearer sounding than the Mec's would. -
Forgot to mention on the ad its 4ohms & rated at 200watts rms
-
Oh & pm returned to silverfoxnik
-
First of all, i must say a big thank you to Matt for coming to my rescue
in putting this ad up for me.
I've had numerous pc crashes trying to put this ad up myself.
So big cheers to Matt -
If you look in the basschatters review section
