Genz Benz Shuttle 9.2 900w Bass Amp Head
Very small, but mighty indeed. Genz Benz kicked off in Arizona in 1984 and are best known for the bass amp prowess. This was one of the last amps they made before they stopped operations in 2013. It's a D-class 900w power section, but warmed and rounded out by a tube-driven preamp that offers plenty of growl and punch. It's got an effects loop, a parametric midrange control and some push-button tone shape options, and it weighs in under 2kg. The DI channel is a little noisy, but should be fine for most live applications. These are hard to find in Oz these days, so if you're after a lunchbox head with heaps of snazz, give this a razz.
