If not, what would be a good, but old(er) preamp to look into? I like a good preamp as much as the next bassist, but I'd prefer to get something that has some years under it's belt. Thanks everyone. jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 669 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Monday, June 05, 2006 - 6:12 am:    The Eden Navigator and Ampegs SVP-pro are both very good and have been around long enough to have many fans. graeme valvil Moderator Username: valvil Post Number: 900 Registered: 7-2002 Posted on Monday, June 05, 2006 - 1:31 pm:    The F-2B has been around for 35 years, virtually unchanged, and the F-1x, which was introduced in the early 90s is basically the mono version of that; I'd say the F-2B definitely qualifies as something that has some years under its belt.
