Hahaha. Very. I stopped needing to use dirt and EQ pedals because of how monstrous this amp sounds.qersty wrote:waltdogg wrote:'94 SVT-II Pro. I don't know why the fuck I sold my SVT-VR or Mother 200. Nothing compares to the grunt of 6550s or KT88s giving you 200-300 watts of power

Thats so sick. I wanna get like a non-pro 2 sometimes but that is way too loud for me atm
Thanks! I feel that, it's a much cooler looking amp and a bit more simple in terms of controls than the II Pro. But being Non-MV and only single channel makes taming the volume without dirt pedals is much harder than with a vintage SVT where you can jumper the channels like a 4-input Marshall.
The fact that the II Pro has an input gain control, a tube drive control, and a master volume has made it the most ripping and tamable bass amp I've ever had. Except for the original Mother 200 which is setup the same way IIRC, input gain knob, drive knob, MV. Being able to stage your gain in a more natural way than just overloading your preamp from pedals gives you such a clear and punchy bass tone. Depends on the amp you're using though. Whoa, random tangent. lol
Edit: Here's an updated picture of the SVT in a 4U headbox made my Mission Engineering. It looks killer now.

That amp just looks epic. I cannot even imagine how loud a 6x6550s amp can get, like can you shoot down planes with it

EVERYONE DOES! It's driving me nuts though! I need a knob from an old big box RAT, it's the same knob Ampeg uses on the original II Pros and SVT-Classic but for knurled shafts, not D-shafts. I think at one point the volume pot was replaced and instead of getting a D shaft pot. The tech used a regular knurled shaft. So I need a RAT knob lol. It's not OCD but goddamn does it bug me. I even had to replace the rack handles with ones that were the incorrect color but I think the silver handles ended up accenting the rest of the silver on the faceplate.
