Great videos... I have one of these that I am working on rehabilitating. I am mainly a bass player as well, and mine actually has been retrofitted with a Peavey Black Widow speaker. Sounds pretty good but most of the pots are really scratchy and I think it probably needs recapped. It's nice to actually hear what the amp sounds like in good working condition I liked the fretless bass sound in the first video. I think you're right, this will make a good low volume bass rig once I get it up and running.
Thank you for the kind words! There is an electronic cleaning spray called "De-oxit". If you remove the preamp from the chasis you can spray the de oxit right inside the Pots. (there is usually a small hole at the bottom of a pot) Then twist the knob back and forth.That should clean it out. Just a little bit of spray at a time. I bet it sounds great through the Black Widow speaker! Good luck!
@@secretjourney4815 Thanks for the heads up... I'll take a look around for it. That would sure save a bit of time and money. When it runs right it does sound great through the Black Widow... I can't wait to get this thing whipped into shape.
I have same amp for 37 years. It's not popular amp. but very beautiful tube sound, I think. And say hello to your children. Very good vocal!!! sayonara......
