Genz-Benz Streamliner 600 - *SOLD* £400 London

[lynxus69]

Up for sale my Genz-Benz Streamliner 600 

Lovely, tube'y, full sound (has 3 valves on the preamp) and super light weight (2,7kg)

Back in a day I’ve compared it A/B to quite a few other amps including Aguilar Tonehammer and Darkglass. IMHO Streamliner was the best to my ears, most tube like (closest to my favourite - an Ampeg SVT  but without the weight) while maintaining clarity. Saying that, if you’re looking for a modern, uncoloured and clinical amp - this one might not be for you.

Gain can be pushed into a nice, warm overdrive.

Comes with the original box and gig bag. If you behave I’ll throw in couple of speakon cables too, one short and one long 😉

Selling as I don't gig these days and use inEar monitors anyway...

These are great amps and they don't come up very often. I have the 900 version and can testify to what the OP says about it.

Good luck with the sale.

I second the above comments, still got my 900 and still going strong with no issues. 
lovely amp 👍

These are exceptionally good amps. 
 

I had one of these at one stage and loved it.  More power and sound shaping than you would think.

Hello,

I should also add - there are 2 very common issues with these amps - the blue lights fail and the crackling pots.

The blue lights work fine in mine (see the pics) but the pots were indeed a bit crackling when I tested it today. I’ve sprayed them with Contact and it’s nearly completely gone now. The Gain and Master are fine, just the Volume still has a little bit of a crackle when adjusted while playing (when adjusting while not playing there’s no crackle at all). Minor issue but thought worth to point it out.
