Genzler Amplification Club

I've got kind of an odd question. I just bought a line 6 hx stomp, and I was wondering if it would make sense to use it with the cab models into the genzler amp and cab. I know that's like a cab into a cab, but since the genzler cabs are pretty hi fi, I thought it might work. Of course, when it comes I'll listen to it, but I just thought I'd see what you guys thought, while I wait.

I have an helix lt and I'd suggest using the effect return of the amp when using the hx stomp with amp and ir. I've been doing this with my shuttle 3.0 and it works great to capture the flavor of the amp and cab modeling.
 
@iceboxbass, the LeCover I have is not really heavy, but it is rigid and resists getting out of shape. It will fold, but not easily. It's that material upgrade they gave me at no cost. It's really a nice strong cover suitable for serious road traveling, unlike the 'dust' cover I got from a lessor cabinet maker whose name begins with 'A'.
Aguilar, ampeg,Ashdown? Lol
 
some folk marketed a similar concept cover for the Genz Benz shuttle combos...

here are two options on eBay. I expect the handle placement on the Genzler combo would make the cover a little trickier...

vinyl with form fit

and

and less radically shaped one from Tuki

I had one of the heavy weight Le Cover covers for another amp and one point and it was pretty much as described above and easily stood on its own. I had mixed feelings about that. You always have the trade-off between protection and ease of use. I tend to lean more towards easily folded, less protection, less bulky because my uses do not require more protection and ease of use/schlepability is paramount. (the same is true for me regarding gig bags... I dislike the big bulky ones like the Mono or the Continental).
Thank you for the two examples from eBay.
I’m with you regarding big bulky covers and gig bags. I had a mono gig bag for about a year...I sold it as it wasn’t getting used because of its bulkiness and weight. My HSCs are lighter weight and more protective. My wife sewed in moving blanket material for a liner in one of my cab covers. Still folds really nice and light weight. And she always puts in reinforced cutouts for carrying handles. It’s not that big of a deal really. PM sent.

Gotta keep it going :cool:
 
I'm sure it's somewhere in the pages of this topic, but what is the vertical dispersion of the 12-3? I'm playing a long, narrow room and was thinking about setting my cab on its side so I don't have to tip it back.
 
Hmmmm, what have we here?
More to come!
