Genzler Amplification ! New Genz Benz ?

Ok, the low mid bump curve and od have me interested. I can't lie. I thought it would be two useless mid cuts. I was wrong. Awsome jeff! I can't wait to hear that curve and od. I've never been a big fan of genz cabs except the 212t but, always liked the amps.

Really happy to see that Jeff was able to keep the price very competitive while competing with much larger companies.
EQ shaping, power, size, etc., are just what the doctor ordered!
I can’t wait to try one and am wondering if the Shuttlemax 9.2 will need a new home.
 
It plays GREAT with Uber 115s and an Old Bag End 112 that i played the Prototype thru.
Tone controls are WIDE and Clean.. Channel 1 'Clean" is Clean clean clean..... Channel 2 will get Dirty.. Channel 2 can sort of do what my DarkGlass Vintage Micro Tubes pedal can do... I had a couple days to mess with the prototype and didn't get to run it on the DRIVE channel too much.

What really surprised me were the Contours.. I wanted to HATE it, because i am not into preset contours.. But i couldn't in all honesty.. Contour "B" at about 9 o'clock with just a slight bit added to the flat signal brought it home for me on the 4 gigs that i used it on. I can see people really digging that on a gig..


Wonder how well it will play with my Genz Neox 212t.
