At this year's Endfest held at the White River Ampetheatre near Seattle, an SVT-VR was on stage with The Mars Volta's bassist Juan Alderete. Juan had been using a mid 70's vintage SVT for years but when the SVT-VR was released, he was able to get that 70's Ampeg sound from a new and more reliable product than the classic original model. Juan's tech, Jerry Riccardi also appreciates the reliability of the new SVT-VR head.
