Genzler Amplification Club

Here’s mine - goes in from my bass to my Pitchblack tuner, which makes it handy as a mute switch as well, and then out from my Spark booster into my MG800.

I do miss the tuner out on my MG350. When I use an amp for a gig I generally don't bring my pedalboard with my TU-2. I have a small Korg velcro'ed to the 350 and I have to mute and pull out and tune and then plug in and un mute. It's a small hassle, but it is something I wish Jeff left on the 350. It's the only "-" I'd put against the 350 head.

Why not put the pedal in the chain? Just tap to mute...

I’m new to pedals and boards as I’ve never used any other than my wireless and a little compression. I want to have a small bird like a tube DI, Compression, Wireless and Tuner.

I've never used a tuner out. Even though I have other ways to mute, I personally appreciate the mute more because there are times it saves the day (swapping cords without turning the amp off). For what it costs, I think it has pretty much exactly the features I would expect, and the power itself is better than other 350w amps I've had. Like others have said, it feels like more than 350w, and that's the best feature I can think of, for an amp.
 
@campbems, try one of these. No bass output is needed. Just turn it on, turn the volume down and tune the bass as needed. Or buy the MG800 and run with the Big Boys!!
I’ve owned and played every Genzler combination there is except for the 410 array and my Genzler 350 stack does everything I need while sounding as big as anything I’ve had. I’ll stick to my 1 trip load in and out lol. We bass players are notorious for getting and using more than we need.

I don't know about this statement!! I need every one of my 12 basses and 4 bass rigs with 200 to +700 watts output!!! I'm expecting another bass rig this Friday, and who knows... I may even need that one, too!! :laugh:
 
So, my band’s drummer has requested to hear what kind of big tubey SVTish tones I can get out of my MG800.

Any suggestions for good settings that would get me somewhere near the ballpark?
Contour b at noon dirty channel to barely breakup when you dig in. Probably looking for a p tone as well so neck pup and half tone on the bass...
