I used to own a Silvertone that's similar to this one.  I always wanted to know how it all worked.  I went to electronics tech school.  After several years and working on many guitar amps, I came across a Silvertone like this one that needed repairs.  One look inside and I thought 'oh crap, what a mess'.  I was just a little surprised at how disorganized and messy it was compared to typical point to point amps from Fender and Harmony.  Still easy to fix except for their reverb system.

If you can do so, get a wireless system before your name is on the obituaries.

I liked this.  I used to own Gibson and Epi T-Birds.  This body style and its colour appeals to me.  I'm a lifelong fan of that headstock style.  I was surprised to see it was a 5 way switching scheme. The sound samples presented them well.  I expected major treble-ish twang from the bridge but didn't get that (good) and as someone said, no mud.  Finally, thank you for not demonstrating this bass by doing slap & pop throughout.
