I want to sell my SVT Classic head and 8 X 10 cabinet. It's about 9 years old. I am the original and only owner. They are factory covered in WHITE. It's in nearly perfect condition - there is a small tear on the covering on the bottom of the cabinet about the size of a quarter.
It comes with Tuki padded covers (brown). The power tubes were replaced very few hours of use ago, and I have 5 good spares from the original set. It operates perfectly and looks very classy. The sound is great! And loud! But I am too old and infirm to transport the cabinet around (not really - just lazy). It has been on 3 gigs total and the rest of the time it has been in my house.
I want to get $1900 for it. I live near Denver, and I am not going to ship it, so it would have to be picked up; or I will deliver it if you are close to the metro area.
My email is benhighmountain@aol.com, phone is 303-358-0172.
This web site won't let me post a photo because the photo is too large a file. Email me and I will send it that way. Thanks.

Trying to get the photo on here; you can tell I am not too computer-savvy...

Damn I sure wish I lived much closer to you. A rig like that here in Australia would set you back about $8000 AUD new and used around the $5000 mark.

Such is life :-)

Here's a resized pic of the rig which Ben emailed to me. Add me to the 'wish I lived closer' club!

I do live close enough but the last couple of times I used an SVT, I kinda got in trouble with the rest of the band! :-)

Plus, we don't have the trailer space.

Yes, there is always the issue of getting in trouble with the rest of the band, Edwin! One slip of the master volume knob and you could be in the doghouse. I see that when I took this photo I had both the gain and the master over half-way... YIKES!
Thanks for re-sizing and posting, Adam!

This amp now has a new home. A fellow bassist from the Denver area now owns it.
