Dood Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I possibly need talking out of this.. I suspect I am making a rather stupid move. However, having replaced my Gas boiler recently (yeh ouch) the cost has eaten into my *Dan wants another Shuker bass fund* I am thinking whether or not I should sell the Pod or not. I do use it, and it is a seriously good piece of kit, but I *could* get by without it, if it means replensihing my bass fund. See, I can get another POD in the future, no problems.. but GAS wants me to have a shuker sooner ;o) I am happy to post pictures if you want, but the unit is so new, it looks no different to that of the website. All leads etc included. I'll also stick the *latest* downloaded drivers on a CD in addition to those that come with the unit. - The XT firmware is updated to the latest version. Bought brand new boxed and sealed in late July 07.

ped Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Oysh Oysh!! Another bass? What's wrong with you boy. I can't WAIT until the X3 rack is released (new year apparently). Will DEFINITELY be checking one out, but like I said to you at some point, I don't see how they can improve the actual sounds at all! Now I have lived with mine for some time and used it all over the place, I am really happy - and just when I thought I was safe, the X3 comes along and rocks my unstable and GASsy little world!!!

Dood Posted November 7, 2007 Author Share Posted November 7, 2007 yeeeeaaa, I know... Well, I'd always planned to get a 'little sister' for my 7er. I had originally planned to do it sooner rather than later, but finaces went a bit sh*t shape ^^^^^^. The plan is to take just 2 basses out with me (especially if a tour comes up) that are both the same (pretty much.. the new one will be a 6er) . I'm the sort of person who likes consistency!!! Obviously, I had been doing that with my Shuker Elite that I sold and really miss having it.. ( I sold it to fund the new bass too!) damn you old gas boiler! lol Having got an SVP back in my rack system, I have been using that for rehearsing and would use it live too.. and the POD for recording. The POD has only travelled between my house and my guitarist's pad.. so as yet I havent gigged it. Sooooooo the upshot is, I wanna start on the new Shuker.. and eventually sell on anything I dont need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made enquiries about this myself recently but didn't get a firm answer. Should be great for using with the Stick. [quote]I don't see how they can improve the actual sounds at all![/quote] As far as I am aware, they are the same as the XT but with more flexible routing?

ped Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Alright Stickmatey, I spoke with a Line 6 employee at Music Live and also to someone who works there via email beforehand, both said they could neither confirm or deny rumours' whilst various people have told me it will be around the first quarter next year. I was also under the impression that is was basically an XT pro with a few extras, but apparently it's the hardware (processor) that has been greatly improved over the previous version, meaning the tones are more efficiently produced and have more of what I guess you might call headroom. There has been some discussion about it here [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=365610&page=4"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.p...5610&page=4[/url] which is all very interesting. I am skeptical about it sounding 'better' as I am so happy with my XT I don't want it to sound any different to an extent, but will definitely buying one anyway.
