yes please

Very nice

That's a great job there As an ex 406 user, it has always been one of my favourite cabs, what are you going to drive it with

100w fender bassman with its 4x10 loud enough to keep up with a fairly loud drummer

Theres nothing to stop you getting your cabs recovered. Look up Zilla cabs, they have a big range of different coverings and fret cloth. I am equally shallow and I sent them my brand new fender bassman 100t and Cab about 2 weeks after they arrived. They changed the covering from Black to cream and I had fronts made in oxblood and another in wheat. Probably not what you want but thet did a cracking job. and I am really please how they turned out

glad to hear your news

If it is V3 its a single valve and about £10 from Watford valves the 4 big valves in there are output valves which normally need balancing but the Fender circuit is supposed to balance it Check the back for the green lights. If they are all in the green the output valves are ok Try in the the vintage and the modern channels, if no sound praobably the pre amp valves are ok How long have you had it, I think there is 3 months warranty on valves. Where are you? Are you able to take it in to Gak, they might have a spare valve to check if that is the problem I am not a technician, its just what worked for me and I dont want to lead you down the wrong path VALVE AMPS HAVE BIG VOLTAGES BE CAREFULL IF YOU TAKE THE BACK OFF

I have one of these, its fantastic There is some really good information in the manual on trouble shooting. I had a very similar problem caused by a faulty valve in position v3 which is a 12AT7 PROBLEM: Signals are present and working normally in the PREAMP OUT {W} and XLR (PRE position) {AA} jacks -AND- Automatic Bias display {T} shows all output tubes are good (solid green LEDs), but the Power amplifier lacks power and punch, sounds different than normal, or produces no sound from speaker or no signal is present from XLR (POST position) jack {AA} in ‘SILENT RECORD’ mode. SOLUTIONS: Power amp driver tube V3 (12AT7) has failed. Replace V3 with a new tube. I had to do this after half a dozen gigs and its been fine ever since. As an aside, Its 40 odd years since I last had a valve amp, it runs to me very hot but fender says this is normal and the fan doesnt cut in untill its almost at nuclear melt down temperature.

the fender reissue 50s bass is really good, lovely neck.

They recovered my bassman head and cab, looks fantastic, really good service too

Does anyone have a Limelight bass that isn't aged though?

I have no idea honest guv

Dear Dad Thanks That fixed it Doohh what a numpty Nigel

For years I have logged on to Basschat and gone straight to new content For the last 3 days I have been told there is no new content I think its when I tried to follow an ad in classified Can someone point an old fogey in the right direction

[quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1437380641' post='2825343'] Also, have a look at Hotcovers. I had a good cover made by them. [/quote] +1 their service is fantastic, and I prefer the material used

Fantastic really enjoyed it although 1 3/4 seemed a bit mean compared to mccartneys 2 3/4 last week that bloke pino is awesome. He was playing a red precision but with a humbucker, and what looked like a t bird pickup. Zak Starkey does a fantastic job as well. Thanks to Chimike for standing in so I could go. He is a great player so I'm sure he will have done a great job

If I remember correctly, The distributors Synergie said they had never had to replace a speaker Its a great cab

[quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1431897440' post='2776082'] Get some handles on it. Couriers like being able to pick it up comfortably with one hand, if it needs to be picked and carried with two hands there's more chance of it getting dropped and/or put down roughly. Whenever I package large amps or some cabs, I always leave a handle poking out. [/quote] Great bit of advice
