Video: Keith Stixx On the NEW Tsunami V-15 Preamp + Sound Samples
The NEW Tsunami V-15 Preamp is here!
The Tsunami V-15 is an all-tube Class A preamp designed by legendary tube amp builder Bruce Egnater. It features two blend-able channels, inspired by the iconic B15 amp for pure tube goodness!
We sat down with Keith Stixx, Founder and President of Tsunami Cables, to get the low-down on what this preamp is capable of. Included in the video are sound samples, where he rounded up different members of the Tsunami family to demo the V-15, each with their unique style and gear. Check this out…
Preorders open today, with an initial run of 30 units.
Important: Many units have already been sold to current Tsunami artists, recording studios and reserved for promo/marketing.
As this first production run of the Tsunami V-15 is taking place during a pandemic (with continued delays on all levels of manufacturing), Keith is anticipating a shipping timeframe of July 2021. Once the first run sells out, the second run will become available for purchase.
More n the Tsunami V-15 Preamp…
Channel 1 (top channel) is inspired by the early 60s design and utilizes a 6SL7 tube. Channel 2 (bottom channel) takes a nod from the early 70s with a 12AX7 tube. Each channel has independent treble and bass controls, as well as high boost and high cut switches. The front has an instrument-level thru output as well as a stereo headphone practice amp. The back of the preamp features an XLR Balanced Output (-20dB pad and ground lift switches), and 1/4″ line-level output. An additional feature is a true bypass mode option, where the thru output (front) is not affected by the preamp (the XLR / Line level outputs are always affected). Bypass can be achieved by either the rear bypass switch or an optional momentary foot-switch.
The Tsunami V-15 Preamp measures 6″w x 4.5″h (w/handle) x 13″l with a weight of 6.5lb.

Review: CrystalBright Rombo Picks
CrystalBright Rombo Picks
PR SamplePlaying bass with a pick is still a touchy subject in our community. I believe you should be able to use whatever you need to get your sound. Even though I mostly play with my fingers, I like to check out innovative new picks that might have something new to offer, sonically speaking.
Judith and Carlos from Rombo recently contacted me about a new material called CrystalBright that they have been researching for the last 12 months and offered to send some prototype picks. After trying them out, I put together this video with my findings.

Working-Class Zeros: Episode #2 – Financial Elements of Working Musicians
“These stories from the front are with real-life, day-to-day musicians who deal with work life and gigging and how they make it work out. Each month, topics may include… the kind of gigs you get, the money, dealing with less-than-ideal rooms, as well as the gear you need to get the job done… and the list goes on from there.” – Steve the Bass Guy and Shawn Cav
