Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
So here is my complaint, there is a major nuisance with the bypass switch. Everytime you hit it, it sends a nasty click through the rig. I ordered another one, thinking it's a defect, but same story. I checked around on Talkbass and it was mentioned there as well.
Kudos on the overall design, but this click makes the bypass switch useless during live settings unless you turn down the amp first before you switch.
I wrote Eden about it and they were like "and what's your point?"
So I am keeking it for the killer sound, and leave it on all the time.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
The sound and tones you can achieve with this unit is astounding, specially for the price. I have used many outboard amps/DI boxes and this one is a keeper
Sound
How is the tone?
Mind bogling awesome. It has the Eden sound. Way cool. Range is fantastic.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
I bought it to turn my passive Jazz Bass into a funk machine. I have tried several outboard amps now and the WTDI packs the best sound and tone by a wide margin. It doesn't just boost the sound like some others, with the WTDI you can shape your sound quite a bit so you can play anything from R&B to Funk to Rock to Jazz.
