This is NOT audio equipment.
However, my studio moat is now complete. My nice Great White Sharks will now have these excellent LASERS mounted on top of them, so no one can get past them anymore.

Ultraman would rip the lasers right off of your giant rubber sharks and drive them right down their giant rubber throats. Then he'd grab them by the tail and whirl them around at ultra-speed, eventually releasing them to shoot out into space, and far away from any human being here on earth.
Ultraman could do it. And he's my friend...

I believe I asked you sometime ago; you never answered. Since that time, I found the Beta Capsule myself, so I know you're not Ultraman...

I'm bringing shitty reverb back.

jgimbel--Sweet jumpin' Josephine! Nice haul!
Nick-- You can have the spoon from that one episode where it was confused with the capsule. Or, perhaps a capsule that will turn you into one of those "Ultra Ladies" or something. But the Beta Capsule stays here...

Thanks! It's been since this past fall that I decided to start saving longer and buying more "final equipment" for the studio rather than just making purchases more often that were fun that I'd more than likely ended up selling later like I had done for years. It's often been stressful months at a time of saving but it sure is nice to finally get these pieces!

Surprisingly nice! When I first saw "Portaflex" and saw it wasn't tube I was a little put off. It definitely doesn't sound exactly like the original but it doesn't immediately stick out as being solid state, and has a nice round sound to it. Especially with the tweeter off in the cab. There are one or two good demos on Youtube with quality sound that might be helpful. An original would really be nice but honestly having this, I'm not really jonesing for one anymore. I'd trade it for the higher watt model because these run at full efficiency with two cabs, not one, so it's pretty quiet for a bass amp. Perfect for recording though! And a good compliment to the TV Twelve. I'll be doing a demo of each amp myself on my Youtube channel in the near future, but I'm not a great bass player so I'm not sure how well it'll display the full nature of it, I'll try!
