@Sushi Box FX - just sayin' that the build quality on the Slampegg I received today is top shelf. Most impressive!

Cold cold, or like, "Florida cold"?I live in FL, but it was definitely cold when it arrived. Hopefully that was it.

It's actually been above 0C here all week. Pretty nice for early March.
I lived in West Montana for 7 years, so "Florida cold" for sure. But the box felt colder than that. The pedal was noticeably cold when I unboxed it.
So what's the diff, tone-wise, between the Standard and X version of a Slampegg? Inquiring minds...
I did see the difference is power consumption on the SB site.

I can't speak for the X version, but I have been nailing Tommy Cogbill's tone all day with the standard. Wish I could nail his smooth lines so easily.
Oh man....One of my fav bassists!! Now I’m pretty excited!
Would you be so kind as to post your EQ setting?![]()
Toobz.when the gain is turned up the SV-PRE gets kinda 'solid state' sounding while the PA and Pegg have a rounder, smoother grit to them.
Toobz.
Tbh, I don’t use the SV-Pre for dirt. I run it clean (master dimed, set V with the gain) low switch to the left, mids way up around 7-800 hz. Then make the Pegg’s eq fairly neutral and get some hair where you want it and then send Peggy into the SV-Pre. It’s good.Yay toobz!

Regular or X models?Was able to spend some quality time with my amp today, along with my Particle Accelerator, Slampegg, and an SV-PRE.
To my surprise, the PA emerged as my favorite so far. They are all good, fantastic in fact. I was able to get them all to where someone who didn't know what to listen for would not be able to pick out a difference. But the PA had a deeper, more solid bottom and thanks to the mids control the mids really stood out. I'm not looking for a ton of gain from any of them, but when the gain is turned up the SV-PRE gets kinda 'solid state' sounding while the PA and Pegg have a rounder, smoother grit to them.
OK, fair point. But this is page 219 of the thread. Grab a snack.See my review in this thread.
