Excellent!

If you are looking for a preamp for your bass, you won't get it wrong with the GK PLEX. I read all the reviews here in Sweetwater and other sites and I didn't have any of the issues other people mentioned below. You also have the two years warranty with sweetwater, that is a great peace of mind and also a great shopping experience when you know sweeteater got your back!

GK does it again!

I've been a GK amp guy since 1975. This pedal captures the sound I have come to love!! Great tool for anyone playing into a PA or that needs a new pre-amp for an old amp.
Rated 5/5

The best

This is the best Di box I have owned! You can practice with it without being hooked up to the Sound System, and the pre amp is awesome!

Great Product

I've waited to get this item and glad I got it from a great company like Sweetwater. A bass players dream. Doesn't matter what kind of bass I play through this GK Plex, the clarity and the drive are amazing. Very impressed and satisfied that I've made a great investment.

Worth every penny.

First of let me say I put this through the test. I used this for bass and was blown away by how clear the sound was and how powerful the sound came out. I was able to dial in the bass tone I wanted very easily. The line out works real nice into a roland VS recorder. The usb works great in a daw with very clear sound no lag or delays. The headphone jack is in stereo and is very clear sounding. It is nice to be able to play along with songs from your mp3/ music player. The preamp is solid built heavy and all metal construction. I would recommend to all bass players of all experience levels.
