Will it live up to the hype?I was going to make it special but then the fiancée usurped the computer. Soon.
NoWill it live up to the hype?
Bob and I disagree on this one, LOL. The Google video I heard was "ik tin ee oh". We agreed on everything else though!
Good jobSo, I gigged my new Ictineo last night. I set it to the clean SVT settings and just left it on for our 100 minute set. I use a blended Volt Thrower into a GR2 for Chameleon and I used an ODB set to medium gain for a Cream (sub) set (all into the Ictineo).
My amp was a Mesa D800 (on a 115/112 stack), with the lower end dialed back for room boom control... bass was a Fender P.
And Damn, that all sounded killer. It was a three band evening and several of the other musicians commented on how good my set up sounded... deep without sounding muddy, and full in the sense of the bass just wanted to make one get up and dance, but not overpowering the rest of the band (drums, guitar and Hammond B3).
Anyway TB is full of threads about always on pedals. I've never had one... until now.

Oh damn. You had to say that didn't you?
Now I'm going to have to start ghosting this thread hoping to jump on getting one from the next available batch.
Next batch should be ready in a couple of weeks. We just have to get Hamish home safe and sound from Saudi Arabia.![]()
