bubinga5 Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) Any thoughts on this amp. I like the power, I like the headphone jack and I like the aux for practice. I'e seen one for £299 second hand. I haven' heard the sound. . Any thoughts.? Edited January 7, 2018 by bubinga5 Quote
fretmeister Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Lovely things. i had the 9.2. Big clean and clear sound with a little grit from the preamp if you want. Quote
Andytre Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 i have the 12.2 best amp i've ever had. went to bass direct tried everything left with one of the last 12.2s available! the 6.2 will be a great little amp Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 I've got a 3.0, 6.0 and a 9.2 Shuttlemax with the twin channels, one channel is the same as the 6.2 but with the 900 watt power amp. Brilliant amps all of them. Quote
mcnach Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Good amp. I had the 9.2... Versatile and good sounding. Quote
project_c Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 I have the 3.0 combo which I love, the whole of that Genz range was great. His new Genzler stuff looks just as good too. Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 I actually like the sound of my 3.0 the best. Quote
Horizontalste Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 I had the 6 & honestly wish I hadn't sold it. Phill Mann (awesome player & really nice bloke) bought it off me within minutes of the advert going up. Quote
Chewie Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 I've got the 6.2 and I will never sell it. I took mine to Bass Direct to test some DB112's and people were cooing over it! Check this out............ Quote

bubinga5 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Posted January 17, 2018 Much difference between the Shuttle 6.0 and the 6.2.? Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 The 6.2 is meant to have more heft! I've not tried one though. The 6.2 is meant to have more drive available in the preamp too. Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 I can't tell much difference tone wise between my 6.0 and Shuttlemax 9.2 on it's valve channel. Quote
bubinga5 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Posted January 17, 2018 Another question. Ive been in conversation with another BC member, and they said the GB Shuttle might not be so good for the music I like. That being soul/neo soul, funk etc? Surely with EQ and the right cab this is possible. ? Surely any decent amp will get me a tone I like.? All subjective I guess. Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Ed Friedland used GB amps to demo every type of bass playing every style of music. I've used mine in covers bands playing double bass 50s Rock n roll through to the latest chart pop music with every genre and era inbetween. Quote

I don't see why it wouldn't work for your style of music. (I owned a Shuttle 9.2) Quote
bubinga5 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Posted January 18, 2018 Just pulled the trigger on a Shuttle 6.2 with Genz Benz bag from the Gallery..£400. Looks like brand new.. Thanks for the info guys. 1 Quote
