roscoe5 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Could make a nice Helix accessory :) 100W Nanotube amp pedal. Looks like it is Class D power with a Nanotube driver. Any better than my 150W Crate Powerblock? Hmm... http://www.bluguitar.com/english/AMP1.html $799 at Sweetwater. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Amp1 Really excited for NAMM!!! C'mon Line 6, show us whatcha got!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paolo_Maina Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 This is not new. It's a complete amp with 3 channels. It's too much. This is a good pedal and a useful solution http://www.stompamp.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mileskb Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I wish someone would come out with a new Crate Powerblock. It's nice for stereo, mono, it's a real nice "backup" to keep in a bag, or use as needed. But they just aren't as solid as you'd expect.

Dshow Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 As Paolo_Maina said, this product is available for almost two years now. They are at NAMM the first time this year though and they just start distribution in US. They will be in Hall C #4490 and there will be daily demos with Jennifer Batten and Thomas Blug himself.

roscoe5 Posted January 17, 2017 Author Share Posted January 17, 2017 Yeah, my Crate Powerblock has never hickuped or failed on me. Can't beat the convenience. That thing was ahead of its time. A 300W+ version of that or something similar would be great though for just a little more clean headroom. Actually makes the Mesa and Markbass mini bass heads look appealing. Still waiting patiently for NAMM this week :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting patiently for NAMM this week :) If you do a little research online, there are a couple of issues that are cropping up on many of them. Mine has developed a faint hum and they are a bear to get inside of to fix/repair. And... if I pay someone else, I'd be better off just buying another as it would be cheaper. I may just do that. Mine would make a good backup even with the hum... but it does kinda drive me nuts when I try to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
