I've got one of these and it's not bad at all. https://m.mooeraudio.com/product/Audiofile--47.html Of course, if my Sansamp had a headphone out, it wouldn't be necessary, but it does sound pretty good.

So SO nice. I had my Salace E Type out for a thrashing this week trying out my new GK head. They're amazing basses, I'll bet you can hardly wait!

Can I play? Yesterday was a fairly jazzy day for me too. (My ACG RetroB 31.5" 5er) Eude

Oooooooft, I'll be very keen to hear how it compares. I would love to try the Deluxe Bass Muff but it's just too darned big! Colour me very interested... Eude

Yup, the nasty, basic italic sans serif font completely spoils the look, why on earth they didn't just ape the style of the old Trace stuff I have no idea. Given how long this has taken to appear, you'd think they could have spent another day on the graphics...

Wow! That is incredible!

Also, has that been routed for MC pups and the full 5K DFM preamp?...

That is going to be laaavly @ead No trouble from me, promise, I very much owe you another email too! Nice tweaks to the Krell there, I've always wondered what it would look like a little more curvaceous. Watching with intent... Eude

The "e500" logo is remarkably pants too.

Holy crap! And, I very much concur with your statement above.

Absolutely stunning!

I should add, if you are interested int he Grail shortscale, I would just give Ashdown a shout directly, they can let you know where there is stock. They seem to allow you to spec and buy on their site direct >> https://ashdownmusic.com/products/the-grail-short-scale They're also promoting the model on Instagram currently too... https://www.instagram.com/p/CZY2s36setL/?utm_medium=copy_link

There's the Ashdown Grail, which comes in short flavour. These were designed with Dan Lakin, so probably pretty darned good basses >> https://ashdownmusic.com/products/the-grail-short-scale

@skelf at AC Guitars has been building a bass along these lines, might be worth a chat?

I've not tried the MarkBass but I'm utterly astonished with the sound and weight that comes from the Barefaced One10. I expect the NY 112 will be a little more solidly built, but the One10 is lighter and smaller, so it's easier to be more careful with it.

Absolutely stunning.

I expect the Barefaced would be SO much better than any other similar cab at a lower price point. I'd pick up a second hand One10 if I was you.

I voted "No" purely based on my own experience. I've tried a few multi scale basses now, and I've found the low B to be no better than a well made regular bass, I expect if you analysed the differences you'd see something, but for the most part, I was left feeling a bit meh. I've also found the lower range of the bass tends to overpower the upper. To quote a bass player I spoke with on the subject, who shall not be named, "my 6 string Dingwall was the best 3 string bass I've ever had". EDIT, I forgot to add, I was impressed with how little adjustment was required to get used to it however. I've heard that a lot and didn't believe it till I tried one. Still not for me though...

Absolutely stunning!

I have considered it yeah, I guess either that or another MXR pedal? I haven't tried their bass fuzz yet...

I do like the EHX Bass Clone, so I guess if I change one, it's likely to be the Bass Big Muff. I have tried the Nano one and it didn't sound as good. I wonder if it would be possible to put the Bass Big Muff into a smaller housing, but keeping all the same guts? I've seen a few regular Big Muff rehousing jobbies like this >> Another simpler, more sensible option might be to just have one delay pedal, but I love running a reverse echo into a digital delay, it's a lot of fun, but I guess not exactly useful in any real context bar mucking around...

Reckon I need a bigger boat? If anyone can suggest a nicer way to lay this out please let me know! Considering looking and a slimmer Chorus and Fuzz this year to make some room, any suggestions? (The Ditto is just place holding fro my Spectraclomp which I've loaned to @Merton for now). Cheers, Eude
