If it's un-modded, that thing is going to appreciate like crazy.

well the price in Oz is a lot higher than i bought if for in the UK...it has a PPIMV mod...but i'm pretty sure thats one of the least intrusive mods...and when its all the way up, the MV is bypassed so theoretically not modded at that level.

To be honest most nerds after that amp down here would probably not give a fuck about that mod. Some might even be chasing it anyway, because live music licensing restrictions down here suck bags of dead donkey cock for breakfast.

i've seen a few Super Leads on sale for about 2500-3000...no Super Bass so far...but suspect it would go for similar money...the price is rediculous down here!

And Billy, I have no idea.

Its a 1974 super bass...almost a birth year amp

You are mentally ill if you sell that amp.

This was pretty much my response. You haven't owned it that long. I'd say hold on to it. You may be really glad you did, especially since it sounds like you'd never be able to get another one. You'll only do yourself favors price wise holding on to it and there's a real good chance you'll fall in love with it. Those are amazing. If I had one I would never sell it.

A 74 is a first year pcb.

Ive sold superbasses. It feels good when you replacevitvwith another iconic amp. If its just getting sold for dumb reasons, dont do it.

Yeah dude, you'll never be able to replace it for any reasonable amount of money.

Besides, you've got a pretty swank amp farm there.
You could hire them out for recording purposes? There aren't a lot of Matamps or Superbasses available.
Fuck, I don't even think Tym has a Superbass for hire...

Edit: No, he doesn't. He has some 70s JMPs, a Mat GT80 and some 70s OR80s and 120s, but no superbass.

Yeah first year PCB...

The thing is amazing, but so is matamp...i just thought it would worth selling along with a couple of guitars to put towards a vintage LP...but between you guys and my wife, having another chat with me tonight after the kids were put to sleep, the selling idea is now going away....its almost like an intervention!

Hey, we all need those from time to time.
I was about to sell all my gear yesterday.
Amazingly my wife told me not to.
Even though we are in pretty dire straights right now.
She is the raddest lady ever.

One friend uses this model with an EQD Palisades for hardcore / crust guitar; Fitz from Neon Hole uses a different Standard in a band with the same dude, and used to use it as the 'bass sound' amp when Neon Hole didn't have a bass player. Another friend uses the 400 for doom-stoner rock guitar as his B stack, it's loud as hell with two 4x12's and works well with all his pedals. Only the doom guy uses the onboard dirt; the reverb is good. When I find one for $100, I'll definitely grab one. There's a dude in Milwaukee with a similar one for $250 right now, but that's too much IMO (link: https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/msg/5081898743.html ).

I put out a Nehon Hole split 7". Love them. I especially dig the guitar tones. Didn't know what kind of amp he used though so thats pretty rad.

For Neon Hole, he uses a Sovtek MIG50 set overdriven and uses a Japanese Boss HM2 distortion on top of it for a wall of squall. Old Boss chorus for noisy parts and some solos. Rivera cab w/ v30's. Les Paul in some form of C.

The Standard is over at the crust bandmates house, but it's not used for Neon Hole anymore, not sure what he's using for distortion in that band. Since it's supposed to be D-Clone-like, and Paul's using the Palisades with his SS rig, I'd think Fitz would be still using the HM2. He uses a Boss overdrive with the MiG in Anthropic and Choose Your Poison.

Joe uses an old Acoustic bass head, a Traynor 2x15, pretty sure his base distorted bass tone is from an Algal Bloom. Forget which kind of bass he has. He's got some cool modulation pedals too, but uses those more on guitar in Staves than NH.

So I want to finish my Matamp rig soooooo bad so I don't have GAS while taking ona second job.... but that would require getting a Boss RE-20 and an Emperor 6x12... which would be close to a grand....

If I sold EVERYTHING I'm not currently using I could swing it.... but I'd have to let go of some pedals I just got recently and kinda don't wanna let go.... but at the same time I'm not using them.... GAH! what a do... what a do...

Sell everything you're not using and buy cool stuff. I had to sell so much gear I loved, but never used to pay bills in the last year. I don't even know what "gear I love" MEANS anymore. Just that I like the idea of the perceived coolness of it? Not sure, but I got rid of a ton of gear, consolidated, upgraded some things, downgraded other things and I'm not regretting any of it.

I sold shit I didn't use even though I thought it was nice or had that perceived coolness Corey meantioned.

everything else I have I have found uses for or on my scheduel for use on recordings.
