Have you had a chance to run that Glassbender Cody?

yes, finally Tim. saturday at practice gave it a good thrashing. did do a MNF style run through earlier in the week as well. just havent had time to get things uploaded.

saturday it sounded killer. ran it into the DR103 and TS50 with the signal split via land devices splitter.
TS50 only saw the GB, CB Sagrado stout boost and gojiraFX Screamer where the 103 saw the whole board.
GB was an always on pedal. cleans up beautifully. i rode the Tyranny's volume the entire time.
this combination was brutal. if you think Albini's clean tone is piercingly clean, this did that in spades and then some.

as soon as i get the time i'll upload either a vid or some practice clips or both :coffee:

I have this glassbender on the way... The current owner is not sure if it works but he never put a tube in it to try it...

Was curious if anyone could tell me what tube type I should be looking at for this unit

Also what power adapter will work with it??

Any help would be appreciated

I found an old reverb listing for this that states it works perfectly. So I'm thinking the guy I'm getting it from just never tried it.

I’ll hit you up vi iG. I had issues finding the proper power supply as well.

Tube wise mine was an oddball with a big bottle preamp. But it had an adapter to take a 12AX7

I was wondering who bought that. That was on my radar.

Glassbender arrived and works!!! I guess the previous owner never even tried it.

Thanks to daCod for the help figuring out the power supply/tube to use :)!

I'm over the moon with this thing. Sounds killer killer killer. EPIC!!
