Baxter Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 That's the new rig finished at last. 8 months in the making. All my own work except for fabricating the metalwork on the amp and cutting the baffle plate for the cab. I'm very pleased with it. So I hooked it up for the first time tonight after I Soldered the new celestion into it. Got a smashing vintage tone. I've enjoyed the experience so much I've bought an empty WEM dominator case to cover with the rest of my tolex. This lot is getting gigged on Sat night. Throwing caution to the wind!!

Happy Jack Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 That is a very cool-looking rig. Glad to hear the tone matches the style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTypeV4 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Very cool indeed.. What Celestion have you used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baxter Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 Nothing special, a BL15-150. I had replaced the crappy busted blue speaker in my ashdown with a Bl15-300 a few years back, and I found it to be an excellent driver for the price. It sounded better and didn't choke on its own vomit after a couple of years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Celestion in my Twin Valve combo is one of the best speakers I have used for bass guitar albeit probably just a low to mid level K series. I do think the automatic choice is to use Eminence and other companies -like Celestion- get over looked. Glad you're pleased with your rig, I have every faith it sounds as good as it looks.
