    [quote name='GremlinAndy' post='471922' date='Apr 24 2009, 10:27 PM']I wouldn't have thought so... I don't have any suitable coverage really. Nah I don't dig on the overdrive stuff so the preamp isn't really a factor... I'll look into the other lex effects ranges. Do you know which are best suited for bass? Or have any recommendations based on experience? Thanks buddy.[/quote] I don't have any recommendations but I've been looking at the MX400 myself. The MPX-1 unit should suit bass without any problems too (although I don't know the relative cost compared to the G2).

    [quote name='chris_b' post='471692' date='Apr 24 2009, 04:49 PM']Somebody switch the lights on in the design dept, so they can see what they're doing!!![/quote] +1 and their copywriter as well. [i]"Controls: Passive preamp: 500kohm volume and 250kohm tone - .047µF tone capacitor; Active preamp: 4-band EQ – 25kohm volume, treble, high-mid, low-mid, bass"[/i] What is a "passive preamp"?

    Maybe in Germany they're all chasing Status basses still and don't recognise Wal's as readily? Lovely score Oliver, I really don't know how you manage to track them down.

    [quote name='alexclaber' post='471580' date='Apr 24 2009, 03:01 PM']3. StingRay 4. Rickenbacker 5. Alembic? Alex[/quote] I'd broadly agree with that in terms of use by bands. Alembics would probably trump Ricks in the studio given how popular they are in Nashville though.

    [quote name='urb' post='470909' date='Apr 23 2009, 04:31 PM']Nice audio version here: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcNDp8JoJFM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcNDp8JoJFM[/url] Really tacky early 90s fusion video - I am a HUGE Alain Caron fan but this is a bit dated - though he does SLAP the entire head perfectly[/quote] I like how close he's come to emulating an arpeggiator line. Thats something I'd be quite interested in developing myself but maybe not with slap.

    There's bound to be a fairly strong demand for that bit of kit. The provenance aside, those B15's have been used on so many other recordings too.

    If you don't need the preamp functions (which are guitar focussed anyway), Lexicon make other multi effects units in the MPX range which are cheaper. Can you claim the cost of your G2 on insurance at all?

    I agree, I recently heard the original on some digital channel and the bass lines just leapt out for their off-beat quirkyness. How fitting is that? Its not the sort of bassline I'd be inclined to play myself but they were great to listen to.

    any sound samples?

    Hey Ian, good to see you're back in the saddle (aha). Let me know if you plan on spending any time in Winnipeg, I have some good friends there who know the musical scene.

    lol when the going gets tough...?

    bump - £800 excl shipping snags it.

    bump. I'll take £700 excl.

    Did anyone spot the 500mm depth in its sister model? [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/the_tamp_d3400.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/the_tamp_d3400.htm[/url] That's not gonna fit into your typical SKB Roto case.

    If it was 600w into 4ohms (like the Shuttle) and able to go into 2ohms then I'd probably go for one at 700 quid...assuming I couldn't import one for less, that is...

    I believe he still owes for advertising on Bassworld.

    If its not immediately obvious, the soundtrack has been dubbed onto camera footage.

    [quote name='~tl' post='469130' date='Apr 21 2009, 10:58 PM']A few points, having read through this thread... ... Hope this was helpful, I'll add more if I can think of anything.[/quote] Very helpful tl, thanks for that. I'll raise the points with the others and see what happens.

    lovely job! hope its gone to a good home.

    ouch, ok thats a bit much at this point in time. I mean, the features are cool and everything but they're not enough to persuade me to give up the Shuttle. Tuner = 10 quid (new) Dual band compressor = 80 quid (used) Shuttle = 600 quid (or less if second hand) The Rebelhead eq. trumps the Shuttle's for sure but the planet doesn't stop spinning for me if I don't have it. :/
  25. Kiwi
    I like the customisability of the eq and the triple band compressor...that's sold me on the unit alone. You could put any bass through that system and have it sounding sweet. Do we have any UK prices for them?
