Hey Pilgrim, I was wondering if anybody else had a Genz-Benz. I got a Shuttle last year - my fourth teeny head... i went through 3 generations of Acoustic Image heads before I decided I needed something with better EQ and a bit of overdrive.
I use the Shuttle 6.0 into an EA CXL112 and EA CXL110. I've only had one gig since I got the Shuttle and damn I wish I was playing more these days... it sounded SO FREAKING GOOD. Bass at that gig was a Gibson LPB-1.
Why didn't I have this gear back when I played a lot! Such is life.
I was running a Sunn Coliseum-300 with a single Peavey 15 before this, and I had a G-K 4x10 cab that I could add and drop the resistance to 4 ohms.
But I got the chance to play through this Shuttle 6.0 and it did EVERYTHING the single 15 did, and the amp and speaker weighed 15 pounds less than the Peavey cab by itself. Heck, the combo weighed the same as the Sunn head!
I bought the Shuttle and two 12T speakers, and immediately sold the Peavey and G-K cabs. NO MORE heavy bass cabs for me. I kept the Sunn head because I really like it.
Now I have three heads and one cab I'm not using:
1967 blackface Bassman
200? Hartke 1400
Sunn Coliseum-300
Homemade cab with a single 12" speaker.
The only thing that will be going out the door from now on is the Genz-Benz system. My back likes me again, and my ears love the sound!
