So if you know of any gigs going, I'd love to know! Just moved to Edinburgh and still on the lookout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOSCOWBASS Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 [quote name='Lew-Bass' post='648906' date='Nov 8 2009, 04:49 PM']I think it's something to do with this. This only happened since I put something into the effects input and outputs (headphones, I DID ask where to put them! ) and it started, i took them out of the effects input/output (cant remember which) and it stopped, but then another time 30 minutes or so later it re-appeared, I turned it on and off and it was fine... [/quote] Lots of people had problems with the Genz Benz Shuttles when they first came out, problem caused by the "make/break" jacks in the send and return. I wonder if these amps have been lying aroung for a while and the "closed" contacts of the send/return are causing the hiss. Just another theory!! Try cleaning the jacks with Sevisol 10 .

If anyone is still looking for a 1x10, one has gone back for a warranty repair and 'should' be available when it comes back (I'm leaving it offline at the moment).

I'm hypercritical of humm and noise (other than the racket that I call bass playing) and this 2x12 combo is pretty spot on, no noise!

TheButler Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Its probably a good thing, i have far too many outgoings this month, and 500 quid would've been a big bite into the Matamp fund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wotnwhy Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 just a bit of an update. did a gig on friday with a math metal band(!), there was meant to be backline (cabs) provided by the headliners but they pulled out last minute so i had to use the 1x12 combo on it's own, no PA support, against a vast drum kit and a peavey half stack.. unbelievably i could be heard on stage AND in the audience (just)! unsuprisingly i was on full volume, but suprisingly there was absolutely no break up in the sound, even on the low Dflat. one day i'll add a barefaced midget and this rig will be litteraly immense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
