How's the battery life on yours? Mine seems to be always on. Not a huge deal as the battery compartment is pretty nice and easy to access... but not great. I'll have to check the socket, I wonder if they installed a mono rather than a stereo one, so no switch.

This was also a Matt Freeman Squier, it's been modified a bit Just recently got a black pickguard for it, didn't install it yet:

It looks like the preamp on mine is always on. I've replaced a few batteries already, blaming myself for forgetting to turn off the tuner (I use it a lot unplugged)... but nope, the battery just drains. So now I just put the battery in if I want to plug it in. Anybody else had the same issue?

Yeah, another one of those threads, but with a big thumbs up to GAK. I ordered an EHX Bass Mono Synth pedal the other day from GAK. I'm not particularly in a hurry. It was meant to be delivered between the 7th-9th. Ok. On the 7th I got an email to let me know it'll be delivered on the 8th, by DPD. No delivery slot yet. I decided to work from home and just be there when it arrives, as my girlfriend was not going to be around during the day yesterday. On the 8th I get the delivery slot, around lunchtime: 19:56-20:56. No problem. It's 20:30 (time is important) and I am downstairs talking to my girlfriend and thinking about preparing some food. Since we're exactly in the middle of the delivery slot I decide to wait. I go back upstairs to finish something on the computer. I notice a text from DPD: "sorry you weren't in, we'll deliver your parcel tomorrow at your local DPD shop" Yeah right. It was timestamped at 20:26. It's a very quiet cul de sac and my house is at the very end. I can see and hear from upstairs any car/van approaching, especially at night. Double specially if I'm expecing someone. No, they didn't attempt delivery. We all know that. Interestingy DPD allows you to set actions if you're not in: safe place, deliver to neighbours... My default is to leave with one of my neighbours. We all know each other and it's a good bunch, I got lucky. No, of course they didn't try my neighbours. They just lied. Now, I was not in a hurry. I don't care if they deliver it a day later, three days later. It doesn't matter to me in this case. But it matters to me when they lie. It also matters to me that the DPD shop they chose is around 4 miles away. Can I go to it? I could. Not convenient at all, 'though. And they lied. That really annoys me So I write to GAK last night explaining the situation and I ask them to please contact DPD and get my parcel redelivered at my home address. It'll probably delay matters but what can you do: DPD to get parcel back, back to depot, another day out for delivery... I'm ready to not seeing the pedal until sometime next week at this point. Then this morning: Text from DPD: your parcel is ready to be picked up at some Argos 4 miles away from my home. And hurry up, it'll only be there until the 15th. I also see a flurry of emails from GAK. GAK has already sent me a replacement, due to be delivered tomorrow. I'm not to be bothered with the previous parcel which will make its way eventually back to GAK somehow. I'm not 100% sure I'll get it tomorrow, because... experience. But GAK have been great, which means that in the future when I buy online, I'm going to remember this and will be more likely to buy from them than I was before this. Mistakes will be made, problems will arise, it's unavoidable. What matters most to me is their attitude when dealing with issues... and GAK got top marks.

This one. Beast.

Oh, and the Joyo Orange Juice, how could I forget that one!

I've got the Hustle Drive and it's a great overdrive for bass. The Valeton Tube Refiner is also a favourite of mine but it's geared more towards low/mid gain sounds compared to the Hustle Drive.

No noticeable delay for me either, no. I think I read someone's comments about a small delay when using the bluetooth adapter to control it from the phone/tablet, but not when used directly.

It's just to make sure you know what you're not getting.

Indeed, or the NUX Mighty Plug. It's actually supposed to act as a USB interface as well for recording. https://www.amazon.co.uk/NUX-Mighty-Headphone-Amplifier-Bluetooth/dp/B08HR3XBZ2/ref=pd_lpo_1?pd_rd_w=cPfpX&content-id=amzn1.sym.2d229339-2f42-4596-a90d-b81a4f52d6d3&pf_rd_p=2d229339-2f42-4596-a90d-b81a4f52d6d3&pf_rd_r=AY4B1HK86P6WGVWTZ3AN&pd_rd_wg=bglyf&pd_rd_r=969bbeda-fae3-40f8-b221-1d4fa153e19f&pd_rd_i=B08HR3XBZ2&psc=1

I just found out that whatever you put through the AUX input doesn't come out the XLR out, only the TRS... which is great if you want to use this for IEM!
