Anyone know if the VIP preamp will swap places with the OP-PRO? I seem to remember someone saying they were interchangable...the wiring and cradle seem the same to me...

has anyone tried a VIP on a 12 stringer? it was probably designed for voicings of six string guitars, but the inquiring mind...well,...you know.

I talked to Budny about putting a Studio in a 12. He said he didn't know if anyone had tried it but it sounded like an interesting idea.

maybe been asked before, but I can't find it anywhere... are the OP 50 and the OP Pro interchangeable, or different cans... guess I'll know in a week or so... but any definitive answers appreciated in advance.

Thanks,

Glenn

OP-50 is good sounding system.
It might be sideways move

i liked the OP-50 that was in my W597 better than the OP-PRO's i have in my 1688 and the eliteT. it seemed more responsive to adjustments and would cut the signal to the amp in tuning mode, which is great during gigs. i'm in the market for an OP-PRO Studio or two.

If any of you out there are not happy with their VIP, I'll trade an OP-PRO plus a little something extra for it.

I think we discussed this before but I have both a VIP or a Studio Pro in the baritone 12.

I like it better overall as well.
The tuner is easier to see on op pro
Personally I like Optima
& Op-50 coin flip as which I perfer.
