    No, you are in the right place! The Silverado is a good combo, as most SWR gear from that era was, but it's low powered (220 watts at 8 ohms) and pretty big and heavy (70lbs), so hard to move. EQ is useful, with a mid sweep. Cheers Gareth

    Bought a lovely strap from Pete. Great communication and a pleasure to deal with, next day delivery too! Thanks very much

    I was the original owner of this bass. It really is a VERY good example.

    Thanksf for all the suggestions guys. Have managed to pick up an as new 4.5" wide Richter Springbreak for good money, so hopefully I'm all sorted.

    DId you sell this?

    One of the NY151s I have for sale would sit very nicely under the 604. Plenty of punch for a 1x15 and the horn adds some top end sweetness.

    [quote name='Basskiller666' timestamp='1357559117' post='1924336'] So ideally it should be ok to run the above mentioned cabs together at 2ohms? Im just a bit hesitant to try it! [/quote] It should be okay, but if the 4x10 is already farting at low volume something isn't right. Try the Trace at low volume and see if the same thing happens.

    Yum yum. I had the same awesome setup and it's one of the few rigs I regret selling. The tones you can get from this are just lovely.

    At 2ohms (you'll be at 2.66) the M9 puts out 900 watts, so your cabs should ideally be rated to handle 600 watts (4 ohm) and 300 watts (8 ohm respectively). EDIT: Your reply to Liam makes my post redundant

    Hi guys, anyone have a Hisphot HB6 1/2" Ultralite tuiner I can borrow, so I can check its fit on my bass? It doesn't matter if it's a Clover, Lollypop or Y key. Cheers Gareth

    Good price for an excellent bit of kit.

    I'm amazed this is still here. Superb kit and cheap as chips

    [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1357161880' post='1918549'] I've bought five sets so far - not a peep on any of 'em... [/quote] I received two sets last month, no charges either

    I'm about 6 weeks in to owning my VT5. I've owned loads of boutique basses (Smith, Wal, Elrick etc.) over the years, but I have to say I think the Sandberg basses are incredible value for money. The fit and finish is right up there, as good as anything else, and the price point makes them a no brainer.

    [quote name='dannyp' timestamp='1354482254' post='1886555'] Can anyone answer one question: does it have the 'clip-tuck' straps of the M80? I only ever use the handle - straps aren't for me so I'd prefer they were out of the way or didn't exist. [/quote] You can't tuck them away or remove them
  20. franzbassist
    Is it a lined fretless? If not, the marker dots on the side of the neck will probably be "on" the fret, which may or may not disorientate you once the bass is fretted. Worth factoring into the equation....

    Bump
  22. franzbassist
    Bump.

    I have quite liked them so far, but only in a recording/solo headphones situation, and I can't see them being of any use live situation as their subtle nature would be lost in a band context. It's been an interesting experiment, but I won't be rushing out for more. Oh, and it was my pleasure to help everyone out. Cheers Gareth

    [quote name='graham1945' timestamp='1356630278' post='1911830'] [/quote] Looks lovely. Is this the one that was refinised by Paul Herman at Wal?
  25. franzbassist
    Why not try out the Sandberg configurator then? VS is a single P, VT is PJ, and VM is a P with MM.
