Not sure why, neither this nor the clips on the site gave me a hard on.. I wasn't blown away at all by the tone here. Much preferred the carl martin.

The only thing better is their Preamp-

So this and a great power-amp= awesome?

Has anyone tried it? That almost seems too easy

Not that kind of preamp. I got one. It adds their best OD and Booster to the Atomic OD. The Booster can be pre or post the OD's.
 
great demo! I wonder if it can get into Bogner territory with the Low Mids sweep?
 
Hey Pete how do feel this stacks up to the Carl Martin Plexitone? I'd be running either this or the Plexitone into a Badger 30.

Pete, thanks and good to know.
Ever played a vertex modified plexitone? Wonder how that compares to the xts preamp?

I wonder how the xts pre would sound I front of a jcm900. What's usually on the back line.

Damn. :(
 
i'd love pt to do a a/b/c comparison between atomic, vertex plexitone, and wampler pinnacle

i have a vertex plexitone to loan out for the cause...:)

how much does the preamp go for carl?

Pat, around $600 (yikes :lol: :LOL:) if I remember correctly. It comes in cheaper than if you bought the 3 individual pedals though. It's all there in one pedal though. The Preamp a delay/ reverb, you're good to go w/ any clean amp.
 
These guys are in Nashville so I emailed them about checking them out in person. They said no problem. Very cool guys and fast responses BTW. I'll go by there when I go visit my brother. :rock:

Thanks for the demo Pete and the info on the preamp Carl. :thumbsup:

oof! 6 bald fatsos...

yet i bought and use/love the etho$ pedal, and the vertex plexitone which was no small pile of emeralds either. i like the 3 in one deal.

but these pedal prices--- should come with pheasant under glass, a foot rub, and a necklace of bigfoot's teeth!
 
RTSN ... =)
Shoul become an industry catchphrase!
great demo Pete - any chance of you giving the preamp a whirl?
