JimBobTTD Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 http://mesaboogie.com/amplifiers/bass/preamplifier-series/subway-bass-di-preamp-plus/index.html I have been holding off on buying a Subway preamp as I had suspected that they would be launching a new version. What are your thoughts on this? It looks like the Subway Plus amp in a pedal which is exactly what I was expecting and awaiting. There is also a new Subway amp with a valve preamp stage that is tempting something rotten, even though I love my GK amp and only ever play live either DI or through the house amp (and then DI).

JimBobTTD Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 $379 from Mesa's shop in Hollywood, compared to $329 for the standard Subway preamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky8884 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I like the addition of a HPF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Krow Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) That does look good! Fortunately I have a Mesa amp already so I'm excused Methinks this pedal plus a Quilter Bass Block 800 / Harley Benton Block 800B / GSS Sumo 1000W could provide alternative "value" versions to getting a Mesa D800+ Edited December 2, 2018 by Al Krow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBobTTD Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 I have read the thread on TB and have even stronger GAS. I foresee an advance order in my future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBobTTD Posted December 27, 2018 Author Share Posted December 27, 2018 There will not be an advance preorder...the prices are ludicrous. Also, the price of the first version has dropped to about £180 new locally...that is what they go for secondhand, so I might have to take them up on that offer!

Graham Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I really like the look of those, will be following with interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBobTTD Posted December 29, 2018 Author Share Posted December 29, 2018 £370 preorder from Andertons. I bought the v1 for £170 new here and it sounds great - it gives a lift to my sound. Taking how I was before as 100, I am now at 125. Annoyingly, this makes me even more interested in v2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
