FT: Genz-Benz Streamliner 900 for ShuttleMax/TC/Shuttle...

sunbeast · #1 09-17-2011, 09:30 PM

Just got this new a month or so ago, and while I really like some of the tones I can get, I think I have just generally grown towards more modern sounding and/or mid-forward amps amps. This thing has some of the most impressive heft of any amp I've ever tried though, and I wish I had an application where that could be used to its fullest!
The amp is in brand new condition (never used outside of my house), with box and all papers (including receipt), minus the warranty card which I sent in. The warranty is fully transferrable and good for nearly 3 years!

For trades I'm looking for other lightweight heads ideally- a ShuttleMax 9.2 or TC RH750 being at the top of my list, though a Shuttle 9 might work as well. Might also consider a Mesa Carbine again, even though it's certainly not a lightweight (I just miss mine!). Open to other offers, but these are the most likely candidates at the moment. Any trades can be plus/minus cash as necessary...

I'd really like to try the STR and compare it to my Shuttle 9. Maybe if it doesn't sell before next weekend maybe we can get together?

PM's replied- bump for any ShuttleMax or RH750 owners looking for something more "streamlined"

sunbeast · #6 09-20-2011, 06:45 AM

Bump- I have some nice trade offers. Anyone else interested?

This amp rocks, I love mine. Is it the most versatile thing on the block? No but when I'm on stage I move a few dials & I play... I had a Shuttlemax 12.0 & theres NO way u fiddle with all those things on a gig. NONE. Cool at home

I love my SL 900, nothing sounds like it period. GET IT

PMs replied- after reading more about the TC wattage-rating "debacle," I've decided I don't think I am still interested in the RH750 for now (which is a bummer!). I have a couple really nice offers on the table, last for a ShuttleMax 9.2 trade...

sunbeast · #10 09-22-2011, 05:40 PM

Alright- still looking for that sneaky ShuttleMax 9.2 trade. Also possibly interested in a Mesa BB750...

sunbeast · #11 09-23-2011, 06:53 AM

To the top. Considering holding on to this now- When factoring in size and weight, having to do a little creative EQ'ing to get where I want seems less of a PITA! Still interested in a 9.2 though or possibly a BB750 for some of that Walkabout-esque tone...

ShuttleMax 12? PM me if interested?

Thanks, but I need the extra wattage to a single cab that the 9.2 provides!

Thank you.

Shuttle 9.0 up for sale/trade, PM me if there's interest.

Trade for Shuttlemax 12.0?

sunbeast · #17 10-02-2011, 10:46 AM

Thanks, but I need the bigger power output into a single cabinet. As far as the Shuttle 9.0, I'm thinking abou that one- I wish there was one to try locally but I've only been able to try a Max 12 so I know I like that preamp...

Alright- I went through another phase of wanting to keep this and trying to EQ it to my bidding, but I've decided I'd be better off with an orange rather than trying to EQ a banana into an orange! Shame I missed a chance for a trade for a ShuttleMax 9.2 in the process.
It is officially back up for trade- especially interested in an Aguilar TH500, ShuttleMax 9.2, Mesa Carbine M9 or maybe M6 (both only with current upgrades and remaining warranty time/reciept), Mesa Titan, and possibly others though these are the most likely contenders. Not really interested in a Shuttle 9 at this point as I have a local opportunity to do that trade if it comes to it. Can add a little cash for the right amp, but not a whole lot!
