  1. sold Set of Thomastik flat wounds, light use on my fretless with silks in good condition.
  2. I’ve got multiple ways to connect it, but all of which involve an extra pedal (blend, splitter etc...). The issue I have at the minute is that the old switch has come away from the pcb, and I’m not sure how to get it working again.
  3. Built from a FuzzDog board and boxed in an aluminium case - bass, treble, gain and volume controls - this is about as close to a B15 as I’ve heard in an analogue pedal - lovely beefy bottom end with plenty of gain on tap. built this as I was experimenting with different preamps, but don’t need it any longer.
  4. Hi, does anyone have one of these tuners kicking around? I love mine as it’s got a mahoosive screen, but I’m modding it to true bypass, as they suck tone. Does anyone have one that’s willing to take a picture of the foot switch wiring loom for me? My switch is knackered otherwise I’d do it myself. 😢
  5. Thanks BCers, I managed to download everything last night. I’d tried this before, but the updates that GB does after the installation always failed. it seemed to work last night though, so happy days.
  6. Hi, I’m looking for a download link for an old version of GarageBand - my OS is High Sierra, and the only version on the Apple website is for 10.15 and above. Does anyone know of a download link for an old version that’s compatible with my ageing MacBook Pro? Usually I’d run Protools; but due to lockdown I’m working with new musicians who are all on GB and it would just be easier to import the project instead of getting the guys to export stems etc...
  7. Good job we’re not discussing pedals.... (backs away, whistling nonchalantly....)
  8. I’ve been playing for just under 30 years, and have had less than 10 basses. I still have 3 of them!
  9. Looks like it would be easier to replace the drive knob with a smaller value logarithmic pot - that’ll also reduce the gain, and will give more control over lower drive settings.
  10. Any of these: 12AX7 - gain of 100 12AT7 - gain of 60 12AU7 - gain of 20 because they’re preamp valves they don’t need biasing, and can literally be unplugged from their socket and replaced; they only fit in one way, so knock yourself out!
  11. Look down the neck from the bridge end - if it t looks straight then it’s a case of lowering the saddles on the bridge, if the neck looks bowed then it’s going to need the truss rod tightening. could you post some pictures?
  12. What a shame about the E andA strings at the headstock; a slightly longer head or zero fret would have made for beautiful straight lines.
  13. Looks like a Sansamp/BDI21 clone. Is it?

    DIY Effects

    Looks exactly like my ‘pedal drawer’ - they won’t all fit on my board. ☹️
  15. Bass - effects - DHA VT1 - Power amp. Job done!
  16. Bear in mind that the expression pedal hasn’t got any audio signal running through it, so there’s no signal degradation in whatever you use - whether it costs £17 or £170, it’s just a potentiometer, some connecting wire, and a pedal with a hinge.
  17. I had a compact for a while, but honestly preferred an old TE 1153. Horses for courses though.
  18. It’s probably not as easy, but increasing the value of the current limiting resistor that’s in series with the LED would make it dimmer.
