    [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Ampeg SVT 350H Solid State amp in an SVT disguise. Made in USA[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Bought this a while back and it has a few issues that I needed to sort:-[/color][/size][/font] [list] [*]It had no knobs at all. These are very hard to find as well. The ones you always see for sale are for the D Shafts used in the valve ampegs. The 350H has ‘normal’ shafts. As such the knobs I bought (whilst cosmetically EXACTLY the same) are not ‘official’ ampeg. [*]The HT fuse holder was missing – again very hard to find. I found you either has to replace the entire fuse gubbins or search high and low for the correct holder. Eventually I sourced one from USA - £35 for a tiny piece of plastic! [/list] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Once id sorted these issues the amp powered up fine and works a treat. The fan is a little noisy so I also bought a rubber gasket that fits between the fan and chassis. This has quietened it down quite a bit. I do have a replacement brand new fan to the correct specs that ill throw in with the amp.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]The toelx is scraped and brusied. The two ‘biggest’ spots being on the front corners where the wood is exposed. I have coloured this in with black marker and now isn’t too noticeable from a distance. There are a couple of the EQ sliders missing but still fully operational (I use my plectrum to adjust the ones with missing tips)[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]I run this amp with the matching Ampeg 410he and with a VT pedal in from gives an authentic tubey type ampeg growl. Engaging the graphic EQ add’s that chest thump I like.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Viewings and trials welcome. Collection will be from Bolton or I can deliver locally if needed. Selling as ive seen something from our very own Mr.Foxen that has fired up GAS again.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Pics to follow and questions welcome[/color][/size][/font]

    [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]My current covers band does Chelsea Dagger by Fratellis and I’m looking for something that will give me a trebly, clanky and [i]slightly[/i] dirty sound but enough bass not to drop out of the song – something sounding like what id imagine a Rickenbacker through a valve amp would sound like.[/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"][color="#000000"]Ive tried a Big Muff and also a Boss Bluesdriver, whilst the Boss gets close its still a bit too fuzzy.

    [size="3"][color="#000000"][font="Calibri"]My Japanese Fender PB70 has developed a problem in that the G string machine head no longer holds tune. Im looking for a replacement and will probably end up replacing all 4 tuners. I think it is going to be pretty much impossible to find a drop-in replacement set that won’t involve drilling [/font][font=Wingdings][font=Wingdings]L[/font][/font][font="Calibri"].[/font][/color][/size] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size][/font] [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]In keeping with the 70’s vibe of the bass I have seen the Fender Pure Vintage 70’s Machine Heads that look similar but possible with a larger back plate which could obviously prove problematic. I know there a few PB70 owners on here so has anyone replaced their machine heads at all? If so what with, a cheekily, did you keep the originals?[/color][/size][/font]

    SOLD via t'ebay
  11. Pow_22
    Yup, I could never get a decent sound out of the 120 either. Took it to a tech and had it all revalved and recapped etc and still couldn't get a decent tone at any real volume.
  12. Pow_22
    Hot Covers everytime, waaaaay better than roqsolids offerings, both in quality and price
  13. Pow_22
    Got some scales today so will weigh tonight. Will give options with and without the wooden sleeve. Still available for collection too and pretty open to offers
  14. Pow_22
    Sorry, missed these last few posts. Will attempt to get a shipping quote asap

    Needed both a backup amp and a project to keep me out the pub in January - so when a battered ampeg 350h came up on eBay I snagged it. Mostly cosmetic (new knobs, good clean etc. The two main fixes needed are:- 1) Needs a HT fuse cap which I can find anywhere. Its the same type as my Ampeg SVT III so I've borrowed that for now but will need a replacement when I sell one. 2) The fan. It sounds like an old Peugeot Diesel starting up! My DIY skills are terrible but surely fitting a new fan cant be THAT hard? However, whilst I'm changing the fan I might as well upgrade it to something super quiet. So im looking for fan suggestions and also asking people to raid their spares box for a fuse cap like the one below. Cheers and merry xmas

    BUMP
  19. Pow_22
    £250?
  20. Pow_22
    Still here. Been asked a few times about shipping. It is a heavy beast not helped by the wooden sleeve so not sure this will be entirely feasible
  21. Pow_22
    On Hold
  22. Pow_22
    Boxed and includes paperwork. Any blemishes are previous owner has put marker pen lines on to remember settings, probably wipe off if you tried hard enough. £15 posted to UK address

    One thing I forgot to mention (although the pics show it) is the scratchplate is missing the foil 'E' epiphone logo. It was missing when I got it but believe you can get them on ebay for not many £'s
