  1. Recently did a deal with Alex went very smoothly, enjoy the cab & treat her well cheers Bernie
  2. Hi Russ yes i am a greedy git when it comes to swr gear, but where were you when i was selling one of my 4 ohm swr 2x 10 cabs about 5 weeks ago Anyway if you're in the market for buying an swr 1x15 cab there might be one up for offer soon But no probs with the advice & once again. Best wishes, there's plenty of good ones out there.
  3. Hi there As one the resident swr users on this forum, i'd say its a difficult one to call. I have 4 of these cabs, but i use the 8 ohm versions, i also seen this on ebay too. The original swr drivers are punchy, tight & very clear sounding with lots of tone, i have never used eminance drivers so i can't really say what they would sound like. So i'd definately say my advice would be to demo these if you live close enough to do so, especially as the ones advertised states that the tweeter doesn't work, which would suggest they may have been overdriven in the past, so imho there's 2 reasons which accounts for why the original drivers have been replaced. If this was me i'd probably wait as swr are about to release a version 4 of the goliath series which is meant to have more power handling than the current 350 watt version 3's, so that may mean there maybe some good deals to be had on the s/h market soon. Best wishes Bernie
  4. Hi Chris Just looking in the build diary threads i came a cross this [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15[/url] hope that this link works
  5. Hi redzombie The only advice i can offer is to keep the ashdown amp sound as flat & as clean as you can & the same with the tonepump preamp & let the sansamp do most of the work, then slowly add the tonepump pre to taste. Hope that this helps
  6. Oh my word !!!! what a stunner she is, now that is what i call porn Congrats on what looks an absoulute beauty, i bet you're happy with this one i guess she's well worth waiting for. Please post some sound clips asap. Well done Mr Shuker on another job well done.
  7. Recently sold a bass case to Kev, i found him very easy to deal with & he paid promptly too . Cheers
  8. I've played one of these, they have one in my local pmt store & imho i really like them, they're very light in weight, it has a slim jazz type neck as well as a very slim body which makes feel closer to your body gives the overall impression that its very fast to play & has a general good feel about it. Anyway i've never being a seymour duncan pickup person but i was impressed with the pickups & the pre-amp built into this, for me the only letdown is the bridge, which felt a bit flimsy & wouldn't keep the bass in tune on a long gig for too many songs. So for me that would be the first thing that i would look to replace. I loved the colouring on this bass, which reminded me of my jazz bass special i used to have in the late eighties, but looking at the paint job closely doesn't seem as good, so i think this bass would quickly get mojo'd within a short space of time if used regularly. I've always wondered what a p-bass body & jazz the pickups combination would sound like & did consider customising one of my squire p-basses to make it like this. So my overall impression was very good ^_^ , if for only the retail price which is around the £600-700 mark but i'm sure you'll see cheaper online, but its slightly more than i'm prepared to pay right now, otherwise i would probably be the proud owner of one.
  9. Still a stunning sounding cab though & in great condition sold at that price cos of its age. Bargain i'd say
  10. Note to all !!! This is now sold Thanks to all interested parties & of course the buyer If a mod can please edit the title to reflect this i would be most grateful.
  11. yes i can vouch for these basses lovely i used to own an all black one in the late 80's
  12. Cheers Alex Pleasure meeting you & doing business with you.
  13. If i remember rightly, this is the company that Steve W Rabe worked for before he started up his Swr amps company.
  14. sold ! pending the usual formalities
  15. Yeah ! i must agree with d-basser the warwick likes a right beast luvvin' that
  16. Hi all, I believe one of the cabs he's aiming he questions towards is the swr 2x10 i have up for sale. i have pm'd him offering him a chance to demo the said item as he lives not too far away from me. Oh! Aj pm sent
  17. I agree with Toasted, Emg's would sound great. imho they would sound far more punchier & clearer sounding than the Mec's would.
  18. Forgot to mention on the ad its 4ohms & rated at 200watts rms
  19. Oh & pm returned to silverfoxnik
  20. First of all, i must say a big thank you to Matt for coming to my rescue in putting this ad up for me. I've had numerous pc crashes trying to put this ad up myself. So big cheers to Matt
  21. If you look in the basschatters review section i believe that telebass & a few others have put a review about these basses
  22. 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 .
