Well when I got home I looked at the pics. Wow those are great looking basses. Congrats, I bet they sound good through that rig.

Well, when you get acquainted with it, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts. I've been checking out as many preamps as I can to see what I like best.

The RBI (as far as I'm aware) uses the same circuitry as the Bass Driver DI.

I mostly use studio-owned Ampeg SVT Classics for rehearsal, but have to rely on whatever I can get for gigs (because I have to rely on public transport, my rig stays at home).

On Saturday's gig I borrowed a Peavey rig (not sure what model) and it pretty much sucked. Horrible nasal tone, couldn't get much else. Stick the Bass Driver in there and I instantly managed to dial up a very passable SVT tone. I'd be happy to just use it as a DI, but I like to have an amp on stage.

It turned out to be one of the most enjoyable gigs I've played, it was packed out and the crowd went nuts.
