@Beedster @chris_b your both making very valid arguments, I’m starting to doubt my decision for selling it even more.....

Ha ha the lugging is getting too much

That’s why I don’t want to get rid of it...

Was using an SVT Classic Series 6x10 but have since sold that and any time I’ve used the amp since have hired similar cabs, currently cabless...

Need to shift my SVT II Pro first.....hoping it goes quickly...

That doesn’t look too shabby at all, worth a YouTube binge on review videos I reckon...

Looking into them certainly but am coming round to the idea of a lunchbox type amp or something to fit in a gig bag, ashdowns range seem somewhat limited in this respect and I’ll admit, I don’t know enough about them to warrant enough of a decision, am I missing something from the ash down range or is there anything else out there like this from other brands that’ll get close to the sound I’m after?!

Could well be worth looking at again then....thanks for the suggestion

Might have to revisit ashdown’s, maybe I’m being a bit hasty but I’ve owned three different ashdowns (all used) on three separate occasions and had issues with all of them, maybe I’m unlucky enough to buy duds three times?!

Is the pf-50t a giggable amp? I’ve heard many things sugessting “yup it is” and “nope, it’s not”

Flying carpet would be the best option I think, if you find one, I’m all ears....

Have herd a lot about these but not looked into them much, will certainly have to do so now though...

Looked at those but it was the reliability issues that’s put me off somewhat...

Can I ask why (I’m assuming) you “had” one?! What made you move it on?

I have a micro cl which is ok and have tried gigging with it but there’s just something missing when I do so trying to have a mass clear out so I can start again, Had looked at the micro vr’s also, are they a giggable amp?

So I’ve been fighting with this decision for about 18 months now and have finally decided “it’s time” I'm putting my Ampeg SVT II Pro up for sale, as much as I love the noise it makes, I just can’t do the lugging about anymore.... question is, what to replace it with?! living in the middle of bumf**k and nowhere, working 26 hours a day and two kids means two things, 1. any music shop within about an hour and a half’s drive isnt worth visiting due to lack of variety in stock and 2. The time to drive to any decent music shop and have a good play around just isn’t there so I turn To the wealth of knowledge that is basschat! what would you look at buying if you had an SVT II Pro and were looking to change things up a bit?! i love the noise this amp makes, I like the clear, clean, bassy Thump that this puts out, and that it can blow your kecks off at 20 paces, I also like that I can crank the amp, turn down the master and still get decent tone out of relatively good living room levels with a smaller cab, I realise I won’t get that with anything other than an overweight SVT but what comes close?! What will kick you in the nadgers but remain clean and clear? playing blues, blues rock, soul for the most part, but not exclusively, with p basses or active Ibanez, happy to get any real dirt/overdrive/distortion from pedals it it’s not something I use overly often have been looking at oranges, aguilars, Eden’s, mesa’s, darkglass, and many more over the last few weeks but haven’t tried any in the flesh and chances being, I won’t get to, I just honestly don’t know which way to turn.... so, marvellously experienced basschatters, thoughts?! Suggestions?! GO!!!
