    NPD: DOD FX91 Bass Overdrive....Awesome!

    I absolutely love my DOD FX91. In the studio the sound technician did not like it, as it has a "pop" when (dis)engaging, which I never noticed in a live situation. After testing countless other drives, yes also VT Bass, OCD, the darkglass family, tubescreamers, RATs, etc etc, I keep coming back...

    Ampeg SGT-DI

    Thanks for the headsup! I did not know this French store. Ordered it after your post on Thursday, got it yesterday. What an amazing upgrade from my SCR-DI! I was worried about the lacking FX loop, but it works fine with a flanger in front.

    Thank you, that’s nice! But including customs and taxes it will be quite expensive, is my experience. I will wait, I am just curious why there appears to be no stock at this side of the pond.

    Ah OK. Bax and Thomann announced it on release date w/ expected delivery 2-3 weeks but that every week a week waiting time was added rather than reduced. It is now “in several months” or “unknown”. Strange.

    Ah I was looking here in NL, in Germany and Czech but couldn’t find them. UK also not. Any suggestions? Thx.

    Delivery times here in Europe are still “undefined”. Normally when companies like Ampeg launch a product it is worldwide available almost immediately. Any production issues? Or just high demand in the States?

    About the compressor on the SGT-DI, that only makes sense when using it as a stand alone pedal, correct? I will use the SGT on the last position in my pedal chain, preceded by 5-6 tuner/ dirt/ wah/ modulation pedals. And probably still a separate compressor at the begin of the chain.

    I would like to learn what in your eyes are fx designed especially for the fx loop? The desire for an fx loop is to place the drive section (SGT/ Scrambler in my SCR-DI) to be placed before the mod fx and delays? W/o fx loop, like now, this drive is at the end. Just curious.

    FYI, summary of the in- and outputs description in the manual: - Aux Input is unaffected by the Preamp, SGT, or Cab circuits, and is routed to the Line Out/Phones output only. - Preamp Out: includes the Compressor, Preamp, and SGT circuits. The Cab/User IR and Aux In signals are not included in...

    OK, the Thru connection is clear for me now. Thanks for all the replies!

    Hi! Following this thread with great interest. Unfortunately here in Europe, at my retailer, it will be available in 4-6 weeks from now... meh. Love my SCR-DI, but the SGT-DI improves exactly what I would want... except for one thing. Or maybe? I would love an FX loop sent/ return on it for the...

    G&L LB-100 Tributes?

    Hi there, many thanks for sharing your experiences. What is your impression on the neck profile, is it thin or fat, when compared to the American Fender P basses?
