Re: eBay Gear Score - Duoverb HD
Thats the only problem with Line 6 gear. It's like computers, you pay a crapload for whatever is the best, and a few months later theres something else out thats better and your old purchase plummets in value.
However, that makes them great to pick up on the s/h market because they're decent gear
Never played a duoverb - wasn't that the one that was like a stripped down Vetta? Had the 2 amps at once feature but no effects except reverb?

The Duo looks like the perfect "working amp" out of most of the modelling amps out there. On the Flex ... outside of the Delay I don't use any effects anyway.
Personally I'd like to release another Duoverb (Duoverb II) which has some modern sounds as well (Bogner, Deizel, Engl, Marshall 900, Mk IIC, 5150 etc ... and yeah I know about the HD147 ... I just prefer way the Duoverb is setup and wattage) ... so that you've got the Vintage Duoverb and a modern Duoverb, both in the 100w range (instead of the HD147's 300w)
I haven't tried the new Line 6 stuff but I hope they've managed to improve the Bassman model from the old Flextone II's

The simplicity was definitely a big appeal. Not much about it I don't like. My biggest concern is live applications, I'll need to power a 4x12 and occassionally a second. 100wt should be fine for that.
Nice thing is it only weighs 30lbs so for travel it is great. No 70lb heads going through airports thank you! I found a local shop that makes cases specifically for them which is very cool.
I am not looking for the cutting edge, I thought about the HD and the Vetta but they were overkill for me. I might get a PodXT and a power amp at some point but this will do fine for now hopefully.
We've got our first show back on 6/4 in Clearwater so I'll know soon enough.

Not only that but when I look at the Vetta interface, I feel like I'm in a Sci-Fi set ...
With the Flex I just punch into Manual mode and fiddle with the knobs ... no pushing buttons there

Re: eBay Gear Score - Duoverb HD
I have seen those and have been very curious. Have you posted a review on it by any chance?XSSIVE said:
