I always like the looks of that head when I see it. I'm not sure why we got away from that look.

Well, here's the mini-monster rig:

Gotta love 1200 watts into 4x12's, hehehe... I DO!!!
Link no worky!Recently acquired this Neo-Pak 3.5 from Eublet (thanks again!). Absolutely stunning to my ears...and I've owned some heads. Been using it to play live and record...beat out (with an 1176 comp) my Avalon U5 running into a UA LA-2A comp for an artist I'm recording with. Sweet sounds!

You can hear the sounds we got at the link below! The Neo-Pak was extremely quiet and more sonically pleasing than anything else we tried in the studio (Neve, Urei, SSL board, LA-2A comp, GT Brick, Avalon U5).
Man, I'm so glad you're digging that Neo-pak, and that she's getting some REAL use!That head is very dear to my heart, and it just sounds great on the track!
The Neo-pak also replaced a U5 for me at my church. Just before you got the Neo-pak, I sent it to Nashville with a friend of mine to use on a new album, and the engineer ALSO liked it over an BDDI into a U5. The Neo-pak is just awesome, and the DI is great all around! Glad to see you post this, and by the way, your old SB-2 is getting mucho playing time! I'll have it in the studio later this summer, likely with TI Jazz flats for nice old school tone! Thanks to you also for working out an excellent trade!
