hey guys, so the unit on the teaser on the Genzler Facebook page is stamped "Tube Bass Pre amp" now do you guys think this is a preamp unit or a head with hybrid tube preamp?

Either way, I've been digging my Laney Digbeth (granted, not a true hybrid head), and Fuchs FBT so much that I wanted to try out other flavors in the hybrid tube head space there were, so I was close to shopping for a Milkman Half and Half, or Fender Bassman 800, but it's safe to say that is on pause for now until I see what's in store for us on Tuesday (4/30)!

Yeah, stay tuned. Mum's the word until the official launch.

Man, I would love to see a Genzler take on a compressor pedal. That's not what's coming, but it's what I'd love to see that down the road sometime.

A quick/1176 style section plus an opto/LA-2A section, the ability to put either one first in the chain, and the ability to parallel it all with the dry signal. And nevermind the price, go for the best you can make happen in a pedal format. Or a 1U or 2U rack format, for that matter. Oh, I dare to dream!

And decent metering! I'm far too visual when adjusting a compressor, but it is what it is...

Looks a little bit wide to be a preamp unit. Yes, pause! Must know more.

It actually says "Tube Pre:::::Bass Amp". Draw your conclusions from that.

Well they have attention.

 

[Ryan L.]

Just when I’m gonna be in the market for an amp again…was all set to order a Magellan 800, but I think I’m gonna wait to see what this new thingie is.

 

[Joeykun]

I may or may not know nothing!

 

[Sid the Kid]

I’m sure my wife will understand.

 

[Holdsg]

Ah the fine art of the tease

 

[David A. Davis]

I’m sure my wife will understand.

Mine will too!

I’d say that’s a wise choice.

 

[Mr. Business]

I love glass so much, I still have 2 Streamliners. Needless to say, I can’t wait!

 

[Maxi Funkl]

Here ya go, kids! Can't believe I got to post this first.



We are all done for, basically.

This may have the Streamliners beat. I don't need one but I covet it so badly I will get one. Sexy, Jeff!

I saw this pop up on the web a few weeks back but then the link was gone! I'm all in on this.

 

[Maxi Funkl]

You know it, Maxi!

I've been needing an new amp for years. But the past few years decided to get 2 high end basses 4HH & 5H Stingray Specials & my 1st P style bass a Charvel PJ IV. I was all set on the Magellan 800 but lately I was leaning towards the Mesa WD-800 because of the tube preamp. But this settles it for me will pair perfectly with my Magellan Pre & will add a NU-212!!! Sometimes holding out works in ones favor. On top of all that I've never played a Genz-Benz or Genzler product I did not like.

Here is my Genzler rig seeing action outside the studio for the first time in a year and a half.
Video taken with iPhone. Even with poor iPhone audio quality you can hear how the rig cuts with ease. Loud stage was not a problem for cabs or the head.

 

[Jeff Genzler]

Here ya go, kids! The Genzler Kinetix 800! Can't believe I got to post this first.



Here's where the product page will be on the GA site: https://genzleramplification.com/shop/kinetix-800/

Look at that Lean / Thick / Fat switch! HA!

This is from the web search preview text - the actual page is still 404. "Our circuitry and mechanical designs within the KINETIX™ 800 deliver an all-new platform in tube preamp, compact bass amplification design - exactly what players have come to expect from the GENZLER® design team. From natural, pristine, quick responsive..."

We are all done for, basically. I don't need one but I covet it so badly I will get one. Looks great, Jeff! Attention, Greg Bump!

Six-stage tube preamp makes us all automatically think Streamliners. I also find myself wondering if there will be a Kinetix 350..

Well looks like this has become a TB sneak peek. Full info on April 30. We tried tried to keep it hush-hush until the launch date, and got pretty close.

 

[Old Blastard]

We promise not to tell!

Right guys?

Right?

Guys?

 

[David A. Davis]

Looks like a fantastic piece. I can’t wait to hear it.

 

[Modulus 96]

Security by obscurity isn't working out. Not the first time it's happened to you.

Looking forward to the 350 version, more precisely, a Kinetic 350 BA-S2 combo..... I'm tempted on the 800watt but I didn't need the power, hopefully a lower wattage/cost version is in the works.

 

[SteveC]

Honestly, many of us don’t need most of what we have.
