I don't think it is necessarily better, but they have more control over their manufacturing if it is right next to them/close by, and I imagine manufacturing in Italy is not a cheap setup, so overall I'm pretty impressed.

The fact they went back to Italian manufacturing and kept their prices decent is pretty impressive!

Quilter stuff is always well engineered. Fantastic USA price as well. Wonder what the UK price is?!

...and this is why I love Genz Benz still! Thanks for sharing this, and clearing it up. I have had no issues with mine.

I still have my USA Sterling 5 HS from, wow, it's coming up to maybe 11/12 years old?! The build quality is absolute perfection. It needs new strings soon again. Big shame they don't currently make them. I hope they get them back as Sterling Specials soon.

The two pickup Stingray/Sterling has the original back H in the same position....

Stunning! Enjoy!

Well done to your bank!

Depends, I actually really like the colour the Aguilar DB cabs add to a sound, more so the DB12/DB212.

I never did get one! They looked great. Wish Kiesel would get them made and distribute in the UK.

I still rate the TC amps and cabs. They really had a grip on the market for some time. I can't believe it has been 14-15 years! Really?! I have 2 x RS210, covers, footswitch, RH750 and the bag and I enjoy them still. I actually don't think we have moved on THAT far since the Genz Benz/TC/Markbass amps of 10 or so years ago.

Well it is for Genzler...news for them. I am a user of Genz Benz amps and I have a LOT of respect for their technology in the bass amp/cab world. Why would I want to generate google hits? Makes no difference to me. Not my career/business/company. Anyway, apparently they are releasing info later today.

Description. Our circuitry and mechanical designs within the KINETIX™ 800 deliver an all-new platform in tube preamp, compact bass amplification design – exactly what players have come to expect from the GENZLER® design team. There is a thread on Talkbass and some teaser pics on Genzler's social media ads. Hmmmm!

Boss don't mess about. I imagine this will be pretty much bulletproof. If I was thinking about a new bass amp I'd try this.

Well considering the hefty prices for an 'official' Made in China Dingwall, this seems a great option hahaha!
