FS: LEHLE RMI Basswitch Sonic Spark
Great preamp pedal. Bought it to try to replace my Basswitch IQ/DI as it's a lot smaller and uses the same preamp. It's a great sound, adds harmonic overtones to your signal like a tube amp. I wish they would build it into the IQ, but I can't live without the DI, so passing it along.

Includes the original box, so you can take it to practice and impress your bandmates.

US$220 shipped USA / Canada

I absolutely love mine! BTW, the Sonic Spark is very different from the preamp in the IQ. The IQ's preamp is at the very beginning of the chain, and is a 4-band EQ. Conversely, the Sonic Spark is a tonal enhancer that is designed to respond and sound like a great tube-preamp. I keep my Sonic Spark in the serial loop of the IQ so that my whole chain passes through the SS magic. Have you considered using both together?

That's a good idea.
The RMI site says it uses the same pre as the IQ, but I'm going to give your suggestion a try -- might end up keeping it then.
Thanks

The website does indeed say that, but they're simply referring to the JFET input stage (very transparent); after that, both of these guys are totally different and absolutely awesome together :thumbsup:
