    It's a Precision, what do you mean by "balance?".

    This is the bass in question, a 1991 Thumb that I've owned since about 1992. The barrel jack socket is accessible and I do have the ability to replace it; I'm just reluctant to, although it would be an opportunity to replace it with a black one.

    It's shown in this table from the Ampeg quick start document. It doesn't mean it will be as good at producing bass as a 610 cab of similar sensitivity. Don't fixate on sensitivity; it's only part of a cabinet's performance.

    This looks like an amazing bargain type bump. A Japanese classic for budget bass money.

    Thank you. I was actually wondering whether it was black chrome or black paint. Babicz site doesn't say specifically but looks like paint. GLWYS.
  6. Sparky Mark
    Is it black chrome please? Probably worth adding the finish to the original post.

    Can we have a full length photo of the back of the bass please? Do you still have the original Warwick E string machine head? Cheers.

    Yes, a simple adapter is a good shout; but female not male:-
  9. Sparky Mark
    Yes, that's what you plug into the speaker output socket on the amplifier.
  10. Sparky Mark
    Yes, some others have used this combo like that. The only issue may be that the short speaker cable won't reach an amp placed on top of the combo. You can either open the combo up and replace it with a longer one (may require soldering skills) or buy/make a female to male jack speaker extension cable (may require soldering skills).

    I may get shot by the luther mafia but when my maple Sterling neck got grubby I cleaned it up and gave it a single thin application of tru oil. I prefer the feel of it over the original and it stays lovely and clean now.

    Yummy yummy!!!

    About the same price as a round of beers in Stockholm.

    Add SOLD to the original thread title and it'll close the thread. Cheers.

    Buy a set of tuners and get a P neck free!

    They look like nickle plate which tarnishes, unlike chrome.
  17. Sparky Mark
    Crazy bargain price!!!

    It says it on the front panel; valve pre amp, class D power amp.

    I don't think anyone was suggesting that way of connection?
  21. Sparky Mark
    Do you know what speakers are in the cabs please? Cheers.
  22. Sparky Mark
    I saw that too but no stock anywhere that I could find.
  23. Sparky Mark
    Yes, that's what I thought of doing but I'd like to keep a 20 foot cable as an option too. Fussy blighter I am.
  24. Sparky Mark
    Normally I'd agree with you completely. In this instance however this is a 30 year old bass in totally original condition and this lead has never been used with it previously so it's not the cause. It works perfectly with the bass but is 20 feet long which is longer than I need for most gigs.
  25. Sparky Mark
    Does anyone still produce instrument cables with this type of connector? I need the extra springy contact at the base to maintain a good connection on one of my basses. (I'm looking for a 10 foot cable; ideally right angled to straight connectors). Many thanks for any guidance.
