  1. very. very, very.

    The problem is that I was told it is impossible to have the same otherwise. I have done A-B-C-D as described above, and it is true.

    I don't think it is a one-rig-fits-all though, hence keeping the Eden (tighter) and the TC (lighter) but getting rid of the Fender (distorts too soon for my taste)

  2. Eden is more versatile and more punchy (tube pre but transistor class AB poweramp)... TC is even more versatile but is clinical and a little generic, like the colour on the hospital walls (though you can repaint very quickly to get a good sound...)

    GT-200 sings beautifully, has a good passive EQ, well calibrated for both instruments I brought. Cranking the highs was an epiphany: never harsh yet sparkling... the disto was nasty (even naughty!) when I wanted it... an amazing musical instrument, which completes the collection. If I need something light, I won't bring it out ;-)

  3. OK this is a little show off of a title ;-)

    So I ordered a GT-200 after spending a whole afternoon with Jeff, Hayden, Andrew, and the others... I had brought in my Eden wt-400, my TC RH 450 and my Fender Bassman 100 from 1976... and I am selling the latter as it is no match whatsover!

    I tested on their 4x10 and 2x12 and this is the best amp I've ever played in. A category on its own. I took the standard, and saw a guitar combo in balck and red and gold and loved it so I went for it! I inquired about a mid-freq-switch like they have on their guitar amps and a different taper on the drive button to be able to dial more subtly in the clean zone... voilà!

    Speaking of guitar amps, I also ordered a 1224mk2 and two 2x12 for the uni studios that I am in charge of, in sparking blue...

    My research assistant ( I had to bring 3 guitar players as I was not to shop for that instrument by myself ;-) almost bought one for himself too... all in all, a fantastic day out in Meltham.

    I'll attach picture when I get the beasts.

  4. I want the gain to be for longer (therefore subtler control) in the clean zone... and I'd like to have other centre freqs for the mids... as for the colour, I went for red and black... and old logo... should be ace!

    the uni one is blue! wow effect!

  5. I'm going this afternoon to buy a 1224 for the uni studio and most probably a gt-200 with amendments for me... I'm so excited! I bring the Eden WT400 the Fender Bassman100 from 1976 and the TC RH450 to do comparisons too... and will try the proto of the classD I think...

  6. I bought it Eden WTX-500 used from Prime_bass (see the post on this forum) and it is in perfect condition (apart from a very tiny scratch under the bottom, see if you can see it... I've never seen it before I took the pictures ;-)

    I am happy to sell it for what I paid, which is £280 + Paypal fee if not bank transfered + shipping (whatever option you choose). They sell new for more than twice that price...

    ps if you wonder why I sell, it is because I would like to find a lightweight amp that reproduces my 1st generation WT-400... unmatcheable, even after owning a Shuttle 6, an Acoustic Image, a TC RH450, a Headlite... and this one!
