I play a U12 E96 tuning with a Walker stereo steel rack-mount amp/preamp combo with 2 12" B/W speakers and a Lexicon MPX1- very similar to what your friend is fixin' to do. I love the sound and Gerry is ALWAYS there if ever help is needed for anything- whether it be questions or tech. info or custom jobs, etc-

I play U-12 and after toying around with all kind of pre-amp/mixer combinations, I bought a Walker pre-amp. I liked it so much that I immediately bought a second for another guitar rig that I'm able to keep at work. I only bought the pre-amps because I already had several stereo power amplifiers (QSC, Crown, Adcom) but after hauling some of these amplifiers around, I'm sorry I didn't buy his combination amplifier. It only weighs 13 pounds.

I play U-12 through the Stereo Steel Preamp and an Alesis Quadraverb which was programmed by Gerry Walker for me. It is the best sound I have ever had.

I've been using this system a long time . It is the best pre-amp , amp and effects combo I've ever had ! Great sound !! Gerry Walker has built a winner in this system .

I LOVE my "Stereo Steel Amp". It has a warm yet powerfull sound, it's dependable, rugged, and the three lightweight units make it easily transportable. Add these attributes together with the fact that Gerry Walker is a great man to do business with, and you have a winning combination.

Hearing Reece play through his at the Dallas show two years ago was the clincher for me getting mine!

Me too, Jim. Reece got my personal "tone to the bone award" that year at Dallas. I'm using a Walker stereo steel now too, and I wouldn't leave home without it.

Got me a GD Walker Amp/Preamp combo with the two 15" JBL cabs and have never looked back, great tone and lots of power, not to mention it's easy on the back.
