Necro-thread bump (kinda).
I've been thinking of upgrading from my Tech 21 VT Bass Deluxe, and the SGT-DI and Darkglass Infinity were in the running, with the SGT in the lead purely on cost.
I did have a thought though, which occurred to me when reading the SGT manual. With the Ampeg brand now owned by Yamaha who also own Line 6, is the SGT-DI just repackaged Line 6 technology using HX modelling? With that in mind, would I be better off purchasing a used HX Stomp as a more versatile device? I know the SGT has an thru output in addition to the preamp out but the HX Stomp can also be configured to provide some of that functionality with the send block.
