Hi Nick
Congrats on a grand job you have made on these cabs, if i hadn't seen this build diary
i would have sworn that was proffessionally made speaker cabs on your final pics.

Hopefully when the next midlands bass bash is arranged which was in the worcs/ hereford area,
you could hopefully attend & bring your rig.

I'm sure we love to hear these in action .

I'm with walman on this,
I'm far to much of a scaredy cat to attempt to set my own bass up,
much rather let someone wiser have a go than attempt it myself.

This could turn out very interesting, i'm keeping my eye on this thread

Pm sent

Wow !!

I had the pleasure of trying one of these heads into my 2 swr 2x10's.

With the sub harmonic generator switched in, it made the 2x10's sound
absolutely huge & full in the bottom end & really sweet in the top end
like i've never heard them before, "hell yes" was i impressed with the sound
made the windows in his house rattle too .

Caught him by surprised how nice it sounded thro' 2x10's.

oh i must say i've heard this in action at the midlands bass bash & quite impressed.

i must say i'm shocked to see you maybe parting with this.

I've voted hybrid.
I use an Swr sm400s which uses a valve in the pre-amp stage & tranny poweramp.

I also have Swr's grand prix preamp which uses a valve & the Swr stereo poweramp which
is transistor.

Recently completed a great transaction with this young man who
agreed to meet me on my travels up north so i could collect my
purchase from him.

Many thanks
Bernie.

Indeed he has got a bargain, when i brought mine the retail price
on these basses were £1395.00

Great transaction, helped me out by delivering item to me
in his lunch break.

Cheers.

Mmm sounds like you maybe missing a bit of the Swr magic

Mmm tempted to put up some hardcore pics of mine up too

Oh well done that man
i do hope that it is as good as you hoped

Sorry musky, well corrected, thats what i meant to say.

I'm with warwickhunt on some parts of his confusion.

imho, my theory on this judging by the overall condition from the pics posted
is that its been very rarely played for its age, infact its probably been dismantled
& cleaned more times than its been played.

I dare ya

I know its a small shop with limited bass stock, but they are very helpful in there.

I always thought my squier jv pbass was quite light as well as my previous bass
the warwick streamer stage 1.

Indeed a bargain it is.
I also own one of these, mines in sunburst.

As OTPJ says a large range of sounds can be coaxed out of these
basses, great preamp & very powerful pickups.

+1 on what frank says

Ooops
i think the link is too long to work, but looking at the pics
it maybe a jap export model.

On my jv pbass mine has large squier logo with a small by fender logo
unfortunately the previous owner swopped the chrome hardware for black
which included the serial plate too so the only original parts are
the headstock,frets, neck & the body.

But its still a beaut to play

I couldn't get that link to work but try this one

From what of i remember of going in there, they don't really have
much of a range of bass practice combo's

yeah the bits get stuck in ya teeth

Blimey mate, you have been busy

looking forward to meeting you again too
