The GED-2112 is brilliant! I just bought one, and I'll be using it in my live rig, which consists of a Crest CA9 stereo power amp and a pair of Mesa Powerhouse 212s. I've been playing live since the early 80s and I've always used a clean tone, my variation of John Paul Jones' Led Zeppelin bass tone with zero effects pedals. I've always admired John Entwistle, Chris Squire, and Geddy Lee for their unique sounds, with a bit of "grind" on top, but each also had/has a solid low end going on, and I could never figure out how I could do that live, without running two separate amps. In in my setup's case, I'd have to use 2 different preamps, simultaneously, one providing clean, and the other providing a bit of crunch. The GED-2112 allows me to have crunch and clean from a single rackspace. I wish Andrew and Geddy would've developed this 10 years ago! It's absolutely genius. Thank you Tech 21!!!

I’ve been using the SansAmp RPM for a studio preamp on occasion and it’s really flexible. I like mixing the two channels clean and dirty for a few things, but even on clean tracks it lets the top end cut through and pop out while leaving a track unaffected. I use a compressor and amp sim on the XLR out, and usually an ampeg 4x10 cab sim. Even when recording direct, I often assign two tracks, one for bump, and one for bite.

in the late 1970s, I used to have an old bassman amp like the one in the left hand corner, and I loved how a 6 string sounded out of it. I wonder what happened to that amp....I wonder what happened in general

I had nice success by using a simple solid state Gallien-Krueger amp with my jazz bass, and to have something so small and light for gigging was nice.

I've always wanted to see Geddy noodle on bass. Awsome! Unfortunately, now that Rush is retired, there are almost no bands doing great songs with great, aggressive, melodic bass lines like Geddy played/wrote. There's plenty of aggressive bass lines out there, but not in songs that I love.

ITS ALL IN HIS HANDS! Does not matter what amp he uses.

Then why is he using a particular amp if he can get the same sound with ANY amp? Answer: tone is only PARTIALLY about how you play. MOSTLY about the equipment. STYLE and NOTE CHOICE is ALL the player and not any of the equipment except a hair of inspiration from the tone coming from the equipment. If it sounds good, he'll actually play better. You'd know all of this if you actually played instead of parroting the same erroneous BS everyone does on musician vids.

George Potsos True. I could dial in my sound on almost any amp with some tinkering. The reason he uses what he uses it's because there's no tinkering, just dial it in and you're done. It's about efficiency.

I hope Ged is working on solo material with an album coming eventually. His voice is going, but he's still full strength on the bass. Come on Ged, we miss you.

That Rick tone was really impressive. Spot-on, I would say.

I have one of the 2112 rackmount units. The problem with it is that it has two separate channels for the low end and one for the top. So it’s not as simple as what they’re showing. I contacted them sansamp. They showed me away to combine the two and only take one channel.
