Eb I could understand, but Ab you can get the root on a 4 string bass no problems!

what! they charge more for their erm, smashing, service?

I agree, I personally don't get why a digital capture of a specific amp you own is so much better than a digital capture of a specific amp that Line6 or whoever own.

It was the dog. I think that was on page 3

so when folk* are like "oh basschats not what it was, it's going to the dogs" ... they're not wrong?

I suspect, but might be wrong, that the Basschat legal department is slightly smaller than that of Facebook

Nice bass, but I'm not buying anything off a man who uses a drop shadow like that. Sorry.

I guess the obvious "standards" you see would be... VT bass Sansamp Tonehammer EBS microbass (maybe not as valvey) Ampeg SGT the trick is you learn to set it up for your sound - then send your DI signal to FOH from it, and use the amp as a stage monitor. Depending on the amp your stage sound might still sound like rubber bands and a tin can - but it doesn't matter as the FOH sound will be fine!

£2k is pretty good coin. My one thought is that buying secondhand at not stupid prices lets you buy try things without losing much money at all... and then lets you look at older basses that fit what you're after in your price bracket... a natural finish BB1200 for example, pre'92 streamer stage 1, and so on.

I agree with this.

@iamtheelvy have you shared a photo of your board that isn’t “stuff I had laying around” yet?!

A lot of the wazacraft stuff have an option mode - what do you think it would be on an OC2 reissue?

The venn diagram of “awesome desirable pedals people love” and “ @iamtheelvy’s old stuff in the cupboard” has a fairly big overlap!

1590BB! - surely you'ld want to aim for 1590A

Get well soon @rwillett

I mean ideally I would like a guitar tech where I just pass them my bass and they pass me back one in tune, but it might be a bit odd when playing at church on a Sunday morning, so anything will probably work right?

Paging @rwillett and @SamIAm

I’ve used Elecrow you can use the prototyping service and 10pcb costs about £5 posted - takes ages and you have to get the kicad file right. (Tip standard hole size is not big enough for diy pedals!)

Ild be seeing how close the plate shape was to a fender one … and then ild be fitting an anodised aluminium one… but that’s just me!

In the land of Cruyff there is no “one footed”

judging by the plugs in the background I don't think @RonC is in the UK, which is fine but don't be surprised if they drive (or wah) on the other side of the board
