steve-soar Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 (edited) I'm selling my Ampeg SVP Pro preamp as I have the opportunity to get the pre I have always wanted. I bought this from our very own Dood and he upgraded it with better, quieter valves, worth £65. I am selling it for what I bought it for, £300 The pre is immaculate(thanks Dood). The pre was made in America and is in perfect working order. Cheers Steve. Edited June 4, 2008 by steve-soar

Dood Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 I do understand what you mean actually. I do 'feel' a difference with SS only gear now. We know there's nothing wrong with the SVP.. for a sec, I even thought about buying it back.. along with those Tech cabs and.. and.. and... lol. I'm getting some good results with my current SS set up though. the word 'immediate' springs to mind when describing the sound.

steve-soar Posted May 31, 2008 Author Posted May 31, 2008 No, it's a Philips cryogenic, specially chosen by the Dood. He did the research for the upgrade and then fitted the valves. Have a look on Watford Valves' website at their spec and properties.
