Has anyone's light in the "Genz Benz" window stopped working? Mine stopped working for some reason.

I personally don't like my VT pedal with the Streamliner much. The VT pedal with my old SWR solid state head sounds good together though. I think a good distortion pedal will get better results.

Couldnt you just use the VT as a pre and bypass the pre-amp in the SL900? Best of both worlds.

Every once in a while an LED will fail. Give Scott or Jeff a call and they will arrange to get it taken cae of under warranty. No worries.
Hi all - since I started using the Streamliner as my go-to amp, I have found that I am no longer using my VT bass pedal as much. Played a gig Saturday night and didn't use it at all - just turned up the gain when I wanted a bit more drive, and my bass tone controls for more highs. FYI, I am playing a P-Bass with tapewound flats and a G&L fretless also with tape flats.
When I was using a Shuttle as my amp, I used the VT all the time, mostly for overdrive. I am curious to know if others have had the same experience or if you are still using the VT with a Streamliner and if so, how?
If I want 900 watts of FET vs 3 tube tone I like the Sansamp BDDI & just use the SL900 poweramp section. Pretty awesome feature to be able to use it just as a poweramp.
There are lots of threads on the BDDI. The main thing is to turn down the Blend to about 50% and tweek from there.
How exactly does the MID switch work? Never had an amp with a switchable mids before, I always had high and low mids knobs.
So how would one say boost the lower mids and roll back some high mids?
That's how I usually do on my amp, because GK NEO cabs are a bit bumped in high mids.
Would I have to select say 600 Hz and boost that, or is it better to select 2.5K and roll it off a bit?
What I'm interested in is how the other mid frequencies react to one another.
a Streamliner 1200 would be perfect w my fEARful cabs...
