I just recorded a bass track with the F2B tonight, minimal tweaking needed to get a fat tube tone!

Nice! Congratulations. It would be interesting to hear how the F-2B & F-1X compare.

Picure,
What is the rationale for having an F-1X AND an F-2B?

Pure happiness  ;D

...and the ability to AB test for the community I guess.

F-2B

Yea, they are hard to come by especially the modernized ones. I got mine directly from the mothership, my first purchase from Alembic.  ;D

The 2 that use tubes will sound different depending on what tubes you put in there.
