Sign in to disble this ad
I am looking for an amp with 2 channels that can be switched back and forth with a foot switch. I want to be able to go back and forth between my fingerstyle tone and my Slap tone. I prefer rackmount amps but will consider other options. Thanks |

I feel like my Fingerstyle and slap tones are both suffering if I just set my EQ flat so I can do both on the fly.
I am looking @ a GK 2001RB because I like the GK tone and it is rackmountable. The downside is it is very heavy. Whatever I decide on has to have a footswitch. I am also looking @ the Epi 902. Just need more options.

I shouldnt be this way but I have always liked a bigger hunk of iron to plug into. Wish there was one that I could try @ a local store. |

It seems to me a pedal is going to be a lot cheaper and easier. Something like a BassBone.

Then every rig you use becomes a more versatile 2 channel setup.
