Mmmm, can see the swr 750 poweramp looks like he has a signature series Mm2 pre-amp drool !!!

My perception of what Mr Berlin says is mainly for the shock factor. He likes to cause controversy by what he says. I think the reason behind this is that he likes people to think / explore what works for them best, as well as experimenting with unusual time signatures, the use of vibrato etc.

Me !!!!! Hi David, The case is perfect for my G&L 2500. Thanks for the drink & the chat, it was a pleasure doing business with you. A very smooth & easy transaction. Cheers Bernie

Mmm i'd have to agree with dood on this one & believe me i've experimented. In a nice sterile atmosphere of a rehearsal room the lower frequencies of the 15's would sound nice & give you a fuller sound. But in the complexities of a gig situation especially if a p.a is being used i would definately add another 4 x 10 it will cut thro any mush onstage so that it will be much more audible to your ears, hence the notes will sound more clearer/ definable. The reason added 15" may work for David Nimrod is that his 15" speaker is on top of the 4 x10 which brings it upto his ear level. Hope that this helps

Recently did a deal with Alex went very smoothly, enjoy the cab & treat her well cheers Bernie

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 Bernie

Hi Chris Just looking in the build diary threads i came a cross this [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15[/url] 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 . Cheers

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.

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.

Yeah ! i must agree with d-basser the warwick likes a right beast luvvin' that

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.
