Hi Pete, mine doesn't have stacked pots, I'll have to check the switch tonight when I get home.

I'm not sure what protective layer you mean on the spare Pete, do you mean the layer on the tape? The PCB inside is brown I think, but I'll check. The one that's in the bass is potted I think.

I do have the diagram you have above, and also this one where only pin 7 is left free...

Probably my only regret of late would be trading my black / maple Sadowsky M4 to Karlfer a few Christmases ago...

Don't get me wrong, the Fender AVRI '75 is killer, but I do still miss that black beauty!

Was an absolute steal in Guitar Guitar in Glasgow as well for only £999.00...!!

I have your Sadowsky now, she's a beaut. I doubt I'll ever sell her but if I do I'll let you know first...


My biggest regret was selling my Ampeg Skunkworks when I was skint a few years ago

This is the spare:



This is what's in the bass...

Yeah mine are little black boxes too. I'll get pics up tonight.

I have a SB1000 (1984) and it came with a spare circuit in the hardcase.

Is there anyone here who can identify which if either are original?

I'll take some photos tonight if you think you could possibly help, it just doesn't have as much punch as I was expecting, it has brand new batteries so I'm wondering if it's the circuit.

You'd probably sell it a lot easier if you cleaned it up, removed the stickers, and had some large clear photos of it, just a bit of advice...

Shouldn't this be in the Daily Awesomeness thread?

Amazing :-)

You're probably right...maybe it deserves a repost over there!?

Miki says it's chrome paint!

i don't know. I'll ask him if he knows...

I know what you mean, one of my mates's has a vile chrome warwick with blue LEDs on the fretboard and it is just plain vulgar, but this looks nice.

Coarse European grass I think. Love how this has turned into a gardening thread already! haha!!

I'd say, look at the size of his garden.

I think the pics were taken at Yamaha in Spain.

Before you ask, sadly this is not mine, but it does belong to a friend. He is a lucky lucky guy.

This is all types of stunning. I just came over all unnecessary and need to go home and change now...

Think AC/DC, Rolling Stones, Sabbath, Kiss, George Thorogood, ZZ Top.

That is beautiful, if only it was white or black I'd have bitten your arm off for it. GLWTS

The original post you bought from doesn't have pics anymore. Any chance of telling us what colour it is?

I went back to a tube head, and a 410 cab.


[/quote]nice!!

SOLD!

Bump!

A few years ago I was using all Ampeg. SVT HD with an 810 cab, plus I had a BA500 for tiny gigs, ones with too many stairs, or car parking at the other end of town. Slimmed that down to a 4x10 for ease.

I got all caught up in the tech rush and sold the lot. I bought myself a Barefaced Super 12T, which I still love, but not so lucky with the amps. I first bought a Genz Benz Shuttle. It was the most disgusting nauseating whine of amp I've ever had the displeasure to own. Utter crap, packed up within 3 weeks and had to go back to manufacturer to fix. It had absolutely no soul, no grunt, and sounded like a super clean hifi signal. I sold that on ebay straight away and regretted selling my SVT instantly.

I then bought a GK1001RB-ii, heavy-ish but sounding good again. Traded up for a GK 2001RB, heavier again in sound and physical weight and now I'm itching to get the SVT again.

There's a reason we all carried round super heavy amps for so many years. Its because they sounded amazing. If I played jazz or did gentle 2-piece shows maybe I wouldn't be so affected by the change, but nothing rocks the stage like an SVT and an 810.

Oh and here's the 1001RB-ii that I had previously...

My back is jealous of yours...
