An unexpected combination of the modern looking cabs and the retro looking Fender head, like it though

[Lozz196]

I`ll be betting that gets some great sounds. Did a recording through one of those once, all eq set at noon, fantastic sound.

[Roland Rock]

Wow, lovely!

[JTUK]

That top is in very good condition...how old?

They are still being made (a cool £1700-odd at GAK [url="http://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-super-bassman-head/56166/"]http://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-super-bassman-head/56166/[/url])

Looks amazing and I bet it sounds superb. Afraid i couldn't cope with 65 pounds weight though

[JTUK]

The weight isn't the whole problem, .... for me, it would have to compete with the Aguilar DB at that price ( and weight )
and that is a very TALL order.

It's brand new. It is a beast at 65 pounds. But it sounds so good going through the 2 2X12 cabs.

Hey Lozz; It does song great. Along with the two Jazzes, the Pawn Shop Mustang is a kicker with it's Humbucking onboard.

The two Jazzes look like this.

I changed out the 2 2X12's for the Ampeg SVT-410HLF.

Monster!

That's lovely bud - I miss my Bassman, she was lovely too.

[gsgbass]

I added the 4003 Midnight Blue Ric to the mix.

I love the fret boards on these newer Rics

Rickenbacker is using a Caribbean Rosewood now for the boards, in place of the former African Rosewoods. The change over I think was just over a year, to a year, and a half a go. There a-bouts.
