    Absolutely awesome, really pleased with it, I used the GS412 with it as the Bassman cab pretty much fills the load area of my car.  I’d been mulling over getting a valve amp for a while and almost pulled the trigger on a SVT - this thing goes into overdrive and just sounds like I was hoping and wanting it to, yes it’s super heavy at 76lbs, almost double the weight of my DB750 (and that’s pretty heavy at 46lbs) but totally worth the effort😊👍🏻🤘

    What is the tone like compared to an SVT? I see these come up from time to time and I've always been intrigued by them.  Don't see many big bands using these, the only one I can think of off the top of my head is Doves.

    On my SVT-CL I run the gain at noon and adjust the master to taste. I have heard using the master maxed and using the gain for final volume makes it sound more like the original SVTs though, will have to try that next time I take it out.

    Post your pedal board - Basschat style!!

    Well this is growing and changing.... Here it is as of yesterday.

     

    The TC Corona Chorus is fixed on the Duff Chorus setting. The HOF Reverb is "new" but it is for one echoey part of one song and the rest of the time for fretless use. I'm still madly in love with the Darkglass Duality and whenever the band wants to do a pop song with synth bass this is it, whether combined with the OC-2 or not. The Fender DT Express does its job and is always there in case the amp snuffs it. The AMT Wah has crept back onto the board. 

     

    The recent "loss" from the board is my Boss SY-1 and Expression Pedal. It was a decent pedal but was hardly being used. I took the HOF and some cash for it and I'm happy with the deal. The drummer uses sample pads so has better access to synth sounds, I'll stick to OC-2 and fuzz for my synth parts. 

     

    There's space for more pedals though....

    One of my interests coming into this forum was to check out cabs and amps that seem pretty common in Europe and the UK but that are fairly rare over here. 
    Barefaced cabs are one of those companies. I hear great things about them but you rarely see them over here. Ashdown was rare around here but have recently been making an appearance in L&M. Eich and Vanderkley are two more we never see. Heck, we don’t even have anybody around here carrying Darkglass.

    edit we used to see tons of Ampeg and Sunn , then GK was everywhere. Then came a Eden , Trace , SWR period and then Markbass was everywhere, today it seems to be Mesa. 

    WIsh we got more Mesa over here in the UK! Recently got a TT800, which is brilliant and would like to try a Subway 210 + 115 to go with it, and swap out my SL112s.

    Quiet weekend , aside from a hurricane hitting the coast Saturday, so if things are open Sunday I have the gig in the local blues dive. I’ll bring the Forte and a 112. Small light , sounds great.

    Bought a toy recently , a Darkglass Exponent, it’s replaced the GK MB200 on the Phil Jones cab for the time being. I’m maybe knee deep into the software , I’m really enjoying the discovery. There’s a steep learning curve on this.

    How are you finding the e500? That ones meant to be more of a blank canvas compared to their other stuff isn't it?
