Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?

[pause] These go to eleven.

I'm not sure having th numbers go to eleven makes this any louder. The knobs go from 1 to 11, but you can reseat them so they go from 0 to 10. Perhaps it's my old age, but it doesn't sound much louder when it goes to 11.

I still like the fact it goes to 11.

It is just a joke. 11 is as loud 10. Like in Spinal Tap where the Marshalls go till 11.
Don't think to much about it.

I'm pretty sure Rich knows it's a Spinal Tap reference - his post is a direct line from Spinal tap:

[url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001302/"][b]Nigel Tufnel[/b][/url]: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001661/"]Marty DiBergi[/url][/b]: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001302/"]Nigel Tufnel[/url][/b]: Exactly.
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001661/"]Marty DiBergi[/url][/b]: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001302/"]Nigel Tufnel[/url][/b]: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001661/"]Marty DiBergi[/url][/b]: I don't know.
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001302/"]Nigel Tufnel[/url][/b]: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001661/"]Marty DiBergi[/url][/b]: Put it up to eleven.
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001302/"]Nigel Tufnel[/url][/b]:Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001661/"]Marty DiBergi[/url][/b]: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
[b][url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001302/"]Nigel Tufnel[/url][/b]: [[i]pause[/i]] These go to eleven.

Sorry, but curiosity has got the better of me....if its a passive Pro II (not E) why has it got the battery compartment.....were they always like that?

The original Wal Pros all had the same scratchplate. Back in the day there was a passive to active upgrade kit.
