NOWT !. turns out there's nothing wrong with the GK head unit its the speaker thats buggered i just blew £700 ish & now me speakers knackered. the horn works ok but the woofer's silent-oh poo. hope its fixable which is a point its i need a new speaker can you buy a 4ohm 15" speaker & could i fit it into my 115SBX-11 cab would it work ok. cheers guys, think i need a beer. GK 1001RB-11 anyone ?

cheers guys,Ampeg quandry over as i now have a brand new SVT3PRO sitting on top of my knackered GK speaker . there was nowt wrong with my GK head its the speaker thats bollocksed. oh well its only money, any one want a GK 1001RB-11 ?

thanks guys-much appreciated

thanks for the replies guys,looks like an SVT3PRO then what do you rekon to this one on the bay [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AMPEG-SVT-3-PRO-Bass-Amplifier-Head-under-1-year-old_W0QQitemZ290217685127QQihZ019QQcategoryZ58719QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AMPEG-SVT-3-PRO-Bass...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] i'm a tad concerned about the modification its had. also what's it worth-i know whenever i've sold amps before i,ve struggled to get even half the price i paid new.so it seems it might be a bit dear to me. cheers.

mid gig last saturday my GK 1001RB-11 decided to pack in (along with mucho burnt electrical odours ) which really pissed me off no end ,its only just 2 years old & has only done 20 gigs or so.(i use a combo for practice) so its in for repair, but as i no longer have much confidence in it i'm thinking of buying an Ampeg head. so my quandry is do i get an SVT3PRO or an SVT450H,as both seem to be a similar price. I'm after a nice classic tube amp sound but don't have enough dosh for a real one-bugger- none of my local shops have these in stock so i'll probably have to mail order it,any advice on which will give me the closest to a vintage tube sound ? BTW i'll be playing a MIA 62 reissue P bass & using my GK 115SBX-11 cab (8ohm) cheers Neil.

lol nice collection you've got there Chris.

vey nice-i should have an identical one in a couple of days--does it play as good as it looks ?

mmm just sold my beloved jazz & about to buy a freinds MIA 62 reissue precision. my warwick's in the for sale section so that will leave me with just 2 precisions
