Honestly, I don't know who makes it. I bought it for $35 as a scratch-n-dent special fom musician's Friend.
Hmm, interesting. This stuff is all new to me 
I thought all I was going to need was an amp, but now I see there is potential for a lot of cool stuff... BUT, what the heck is it? haha.
I know the amp, tuner, wireless....
But what else are you guys putting in there? and what the heck is it accomplishing? I see a lot of you have "Power conditioners" what tthe heck are those?

not trying to " show off " anything ...fenderbassabuse said:
{ i dig the Valenti , so why not use this pic ? }
just so happens to be the best available shot of my amp rack ...
is there a problem ?
No problems there. Just having a little joke, so sorry if it appeared offensive- it wasn't intended that way. I have deleted the post that I made. Besides, this whole thread is about showing off.
Anyway, It's yours and the basses are killer, so you have every right to show it off!

A power conditioner is, at it's most basic, is voltage surge protector...kinda like the one you use on your computer and other (expensive) electronic gear to protect against spikes in power.
Lots of info out there Google "power conditioner" or a brand like "furman"
My Big Rig.....
Alembic DS-5R Power Supply for my Alembic basses
Alembic F-1X Preamp
Korg DTR-1 Tuner
Samson Wireless
Crown Xs500
My Little Rig.....
G-K 1001RB
Alesis QuadraVerb 2 (with MidiBuddy foot controller)
I'll probably take the wireless out of the big rig and put the little rig in a 4 space and add the wireless to it.
Peace,
James

The Reff said:Do you have problems with the G-K getting overheated when you block the cooling fan ?
Don't know yet. I've had it all of a week. There are slots on the front as well as on top. There's also a slight bit of air space on top, despite what the picture may show. I am keeping an eye on it, though. If it seems like that will be an issue I'll just put it in a 4 place and not add the wireless. Just leave the top slot open.
Peace,
James
I've got a GK 1001RB also, and run it regularly very loud with no top space free. The front vent seems to get the job done fine. It is mounted in the top rack space, so there is some space inside the rack for the air to circulate, anyways.The Reff said:Do you have problems with the G-K getting overheated when you block the cooling fan ?
Here's my rack. At the present, the Demeter and PLX are in my 3-space soft rack. The POD and my QSC RMX-850 amp are in a 4-space soft rack, and I am getting a 2-space rack tomorrow just for the Bass PODxt Pro. I haven't used my stuff in this configuration for a while.............
