Hi Julian,
I have an SDSV and also the schematics.
I can take a picture of the bass card. I don't know what are the componants that values change.

 Well, i don't think people like parting with them, but who knows. normally the hunt is on for cymbals and hihat cards though...

 Enjoy this group... I'm the moderator so just let me know if something is unclear.
