T-Rex Twister
T-Rex is introducing its own take on the legendary chorus effect with the release of the T-Rex
Twister. The pedal combines two classic
effects, the chorus and flanger, into a
single box. In chorus mode the light/heavy
switch lets you quickly switch between
two classic variations of the chorused sound,
while the Tone control lets you take some of the
top off for a subtler effect. Features include: controls
for Depth, Rate, Level, Tone and Regeneration; chorus/
flanger and light/heavy buttons; Mono and Stereo output options; and an input level knob located on the side
of the Twister to help maintain a clean signal.
Gallien-Krueger’s Fusion 550
Gallien-Kruger introduces its first bass head featuring an
all tube preamp. The Fusion 550 bass head incorporates
a uniquely-designed six-stage tube preamp paired with
a 500-watt version of the high current solid state power
amp used in the 1001RB-II. The Fusion 550 includes
motorized knobs which allow you to store two different
settings. This bass head also features a simplified version
of GK’s exclusive 50-watt Horn Bi-Amp System. Other
features include tube-driven four band active EQ and
voicing filters with a frequency select for the contour
control. The rear panel features Neutrik Speakon and
1/4” speaker output jacks, effects loop, tuner out and
a footswitch input jack. Also on the rear panel is a DI
output, which uses an isolated transformer for ultra-quiet
operation.
