Is it Ziebek ? Or Zwiebek or something? I thought I remembered a version with less switches 

Yeah, Zeibek!

The original version had 2 knobs and no switches. The Designer version added one more knob and 4 switches to the OG design.

It's my second oldest pedal, clocking close to 2 decades of use on all my rigs, since 2005.

For almost 5 years, my "amp" was VT Bass + Sub designer into crest power amp.

what's the submarine? It has more switches than what I thought it might be

It's a preamp. The switches control the response of different freq points. 

It's an awesome tone sweetener and has a huge headroom. 👍

Temple Audio used to sell their boards with a pelican case. Pricey, but that's the best solution I've used for flying. 

Been using this setup since september last year. There's a thumpinator, a neuro hub and a di under the hood.

FIts easily on a carry on luggage with clothes and cables.

Hey, it's been some time.

Did you replace the preamp after all?

I love the stock preamp on mine.

As a matter of fact, it's the bass that's been on my stable the longest - got it from a yamaha endorser in 2008, after seeing nick fyffe playing live with those for Jamiroquai.

It's got 11 year old chromes, the same set since Jan 2012.

Its a deep mean thumpy funk machine.

With this very old set, the mid-shift-thing knob it's really useful to notch the right freq for the mix.
