Members ezstep Posted December 21, 2008 Members Share Posted December 21, 2008 That would be me. I bought a (very) slightly used combo head, the NeoX400 (think GBE600) and it was souped up the the 700 watt upgrade. It was pulled out of the cabinet, and I had a friend build a box on all four sides, and I cranked it for the first time last night. It rocks! Another band was playing with us, and the bassist is a guy I know and trust. Plays a StingRay5, and his style is very similar to mine. When I played, he walked around out front, when he played I walked around out front. This is what I found: SR5 + GBE head + BagEnd cab (only one, S15B-D) = SWEET!!! OMG!!! Every note was distinct, and the tone was great. It might have been a little too loud (only one 8-ohm cabintet) but that was the only complaint (master volume set just under 1:00 o'clock). Kenny said that he thought the same about my Carvin - he could hear each individual note and it was crystal clear. He normally packs two cabs plus a rack with an 1100-watt power amp, but he asked a lot of questions about my little rig. He is in a three-piece group + singer, and we had seven-piece group last night. Thanks to the gurus at Genz-Benz. Happy camper, here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Renfield Posted December 21, 2008 Members Share Posted December 21, 2008 Oh, I was hoping this would be a press release. Alexander Aguilar (yes, THAT Aguilar) is job hunting right now my sources tell me. I have a pool going in my inner circle that is in the know on these things. I have GB being the company to get him, but we'll see how it plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been my rig (GBE600 + Bag End S15X-D, and rarely as needed with an additional S15-D) for a few years now, and I couldn't be happier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Renfield Posted December 21, 2008 Members Share Posted December 21, 2008 So is Aguilar going to go to the {censored} now or what? Doubtful, he left a few years ago so it's probably still business as usual. I don't know when he stopped designing there, and who took over in design. I know who the owner is, Dave Boonshaft, the DB in the current series, but I don't know if he is the designer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members willsellout Posted December 21, 2008 Members Share Posted December 21, 2008 Oh, I don't know {censored} about the company other than their DB cabs are killer:D If he designed some of the Aggie amps, he would make a good addition to Genz. I'd love to see a Genz/Aguilar lovechild:idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
