Shall I just mark you as “out” now?? 😂 and while I’m doing that I’ll do the same for @AndyTravis & @walshy... no hope. Unless I win the lottery and get a Ken Smith and a Sadowsky PJ then I have no need for anything and have every confidence I’ll make it through 😂 honest! 😂

Ok... so I failed miserably last year... I bought an amp (gigged it once) I bought several basses and sold some.. I came to realise I have no will power.... however, there are a couple of people on here that made it all the way through 2020 without any lockdown GAS and subsequent purchases @dave moffat I salute you! 🎉 I’m 100% GAS and purchase free as of 17:32 5th January 😂 So, the gauntlet is now down again, can you survive 2021 without a purchase? here’s a link to last years thread and the rules. bassfan.

We’ve taken bookings for next Xmas eve and nye. All the weddings from this year transferred to next. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Happy new year all.

Why? Have you clamped his car? 😂 misread that. He’s going to stop you?? Has he seen the size of the wheels on your car! sounds like a right piece of work. Old bill mate. No more chances.

Wish I’d have thought of that! Looks great mate.

What are the 2 extra switches for @Rehsart, lights?

Set of strap loks... oh, and a Bergantino BAmp a Sadowsky and 2 fender Marcus Miller jazzes (sold the first to buy the second) 🤦🏻‍♂️

If you are ever selling yours Dave... 🤗

I’m using the xvives mate. Be warned though they do seem to prefer a passive bass. They work fine with my status but don’t seem to like the shuker or sadowsky, there’s a high pitched Whitney noise. Nice and easy to use and charge pretty quick. I gig with them too 👍🏻

@PatrickJ is it far away and just needs a tweak or miles away ?

Cheaper than a synth pedal. Let us know how you get on. 👍🏻

That was the one I was tempted by.

Also...looking at his helix, he’s using the full helix, so in theory it could be that the patches contain amp sims which the hxfx doesn’t have. I’d be interested to see what effects he uses to enable those synth sounds, which I quite like 😃👍🏻

Has anyone downloaded any of the 3 synth patches yet? Just wondering how much they were? Only really want the first one not sure if you get all 3 or they are individual?

I’ll get some pictures tomorrow and ping them over 👍🏻

I use mine live... got a couple of patches set up for different songs and run the compressor depending on the amp I’m using. Works well 😃👍🏻

The 450... 60 odd. Probably not the size of Barrie’s gigs though mainly pubs/clubs 😃I only twice had any major issues but I think that was specific to the venues/stage. I preferred the punch clarity of the 750. Sorry. Derailing the Helix thread! Love my hxfx too!

Do you think that was just the 450 Barrie? I had the 450 for a while and liked it for the features but it was paired with the rs cabs, I didn’t have any issues (not really in a function band though at the time) ... I upgraded to the 750 and had the core tones set on the 3 channels as you did and again no problems at all. I didn’t find the tone was sucked out. Both since long gone in favour of the berg amp though.

Berg amps are just great, I have a BAmp (paired with a cn212) .. congrats 🥳 👍🏻👍🏻... looks great bet it sounds killer to... crank it up! 😃
