Spector Doug Wimbish Euro 4 Signature Basses | NAMM 2025

Audio creation specialists IK Multimedia showcased two strong new entries in their TONEX modeling and effects product line at NAMM: the powered TONEX Cab and the Joe Satriani Ltd. Edition TONEX One pedal. The lux-sounding cab, which ships in April but is available for preorder at $699 street–$100 less than the MAP–is full range, flat response with a custom 12" Celestion and a Lavoce 1" high-performance compression driver. It’s built to enhance the sonic vibe of amp modelers, and kicks out the jams at 350-watts via audiophile-grade power amps. The sound pressure level is 132 dB, so there’s plenty of punch, response, and definition. The control set includes a programmable 3-band EQ, a mike and live dial for tone, an easy-to-use preset dial, and a custom IR loader with 8 onboard presets. There are XLR and AUX outs, it’s MIDI controllable, has old-school tilt-back legs, wood construction, and swappable grille cloths. Plus, it comes with AmpliTube 5 SE, TONEX SE, and TONEX Cab Control Software. IK’s literally shiniest new NAMM offering is the Joe Satriani Ltd. Edition TONEX One pedal. It’s got an eye-catching chrome finish with 3-band EQ and a center control for volume, gain, gate, and reverb. Satch’s work on the pedal included hauling 26 of his own amps into the studio to sculpt 20 preloaded preset tones for this pedalboard-friendly mini. The presets are customizable, and it’s powered via 9V DC or a USB-C and runs at 120 mA. The dynamic range cruises up to 123 dB, there are ultra-low-noise 24-bit/192 kHz converters, and the library of 40,000 TONEX sounds can be accessed via USB. At less than 2" wide and 4 ” long, it is a mighty mite. The stomp ships in February and is tagged at $229.
