I absolutely LOVE my DHA VT2, but am having some noise issues. What power supplies are people using to power theirs, and are they noisy?

Picked one up for less than £30 brand new last week and it’s a really good OC2 soundalike. Very impressed!

I fancy changing the look of my ‘beater’ bass, it’s an ash body with a rosewood board and currently sports a white scratchplate. I really fancy a tort one, but the control cavity is a little over size, does anyone know where I can buy a tort plate that’s on the larger size?

I’m guessing it can’t be powered from phantom power... 👻⚡️

Oh my god!! That’s beautiful!!!

"Hand Made Bass Guitar. House clearance find scratch built bass electric bass guitar.just see pictures and see what you think and for condition.think it needs some work setting on fire." Fixed.

Me too

Have you updated ti recently? I struggled to get a good chorus effect until I downloaded the extra patches and found what I was looking for.

Fair point, but it’s the best half!

‘My Favourite Things’ - John Coltrane. 😍

I like a bit of bite from my Jazz so I went for the Ernie Ball Cobalts - perfect mix of thump and bite when I dig in.

I really like these: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/chairs-stools-benches/junior-chairs/urban-junior-chair-green-art-50207036/ Sold as a childrens’ chair, but great raising the sitting height of adults too. I’m 5’9” by the way.

It’s great isn’t it? I love flats on a Jazz.

Stretches. 😉

Yes, but no-one has mentioned the Elephant in the room - guitarist is looking at his hands...

My main 'squeeze' is a fretless Jazz/Musicman hybrid. I have fretted basses for playing live with bands etc.. but at home I'll plump for the fretless every time; there's just something about the timbre of the notes that I love. I don't approach it as a 'fretless' instrument, just another bass. My technique doesn't (consciously) alter though. Occasionally I'll drop in some of the techniques that are associated with fretless bass (sliding/vibrato etc...) but I honestly can't remember the last time I did it during a performance.

“Charlie don’t surf!”

Also in “40 year old virgin” - “who has a framed Asia poster?”

I'm running an Ampeg SVP PRO preamp and an Amp B410HLF cabinet - both of which I love the sound of, but my current power amp (Laney SP300) is only delivering 150W (per side) into my cabinet, and as my cab is 4Ω I can't use the 'Bridge' mode - which would deliver all 300W to a single channel but expects an 8Ω load. What do other BCers use in their separate pre/power setups? Go!

That's "Breaking the Law", surely...

Pitch shift a la Tool?

Wah? Trem /modulation speed?
