Yes other pedals fit underneath without problem

Can't recommend the Zoom B1on highly enough as a rehearsal tool. Certainly the most affordable option, second hand shouldn't cost more than £20

Jake and I just completed a deal for a pedal, suffice it to say this was a fine, painless experience, great communication and the pedal arrived in perfect condition, well packaged. Happy to recommend this fine Basschatter.

I'm new to the world of boost pedals, but I'm keen to learn. From what I've read they make your instrument louder. Guitarists can therefore drive their amps into overdrive by turning on a boost pedal. My questions: 1) How is this any different from turning up the gain on the amp? (Aside from being able to do it with your foot) and 2) What uses do bass players have for boost pedals? Thanks bass hive mind.

So if I put a multimeter either side of the diode there should be no reading (assuming it has blown)

I'm trying to fit this plate which came with the bass (previous owner converted it to passive) because I have a buyer interested in it. I've already set a very low price cannot spend any more on this.

Just ordered a Lekato 5.8ghz. I'll let you know

Whether this has been addressed or not I can't say. I can say I put a Lidl rechargeable 9v in mine sometime early this year and when I picked it up today it was still fine.

The qtb part refers to the finish. There's a black one, a white one, and the one I have which has a subtle purple quilting effect.

Tell you what though the real surprise bass is this one I wasn't overly excited by its look, and for a long time I resisted. But when I finally gave in - oh my! I've been using it this evening. One of the nicest and easiest most comfortable instruments I've played. Only gigged It once (Covid) but was a joy to play

Yeah I have. Amazing tonal variety if that's your thing. Personally I get a sound I like and stay there. Big old chunky neck on this baby. If you like them thin front to back this may not be for you. But the access to upper frets is great, it looks good even though pale fretboards are not my favourite, and sounds huge too. Downside? The only thing I've found is if you like slapping and pulling the huge neck pick up leaves you very little room for manoeuvre. There's no space to get fingers under the string comfortably.

No. Others disagree, but any changes I've made have been made for fun, not necessity.

Actually don't worry I can clearly see where the 9v positive comes in and connects, the ground is obviously going to ground with all the other grounds! Still wondering which of the components are blown...

I guess it's a matter of what you're after - I actually like them so much I buy sets of the Harley benton rounds to replace other strings with!

And you now have the option of a two Elf stereo rig!

Thank you. I will be letting someone else do it I think. paging @basstone is this within your skill set?

I was told it worked before it came to me so I sincerely hope that's not the case

Hi, I am trying to restore a bass to its original glory. I have the pickguard with the original circuitry and the previous owner labelled the wiring so I'm reasonably confident that I can connect it all up. Except for the battery. There is just an void where the battery sits. No wiring nothing. I am fine getting the clip, 9v connection and wires. But where in tarnation do I connect them?

Looks great!

That's exactly it isn't it? The single most important thing. Everything else is easily changed.

I was stuck in a car park for couple of hours yesterday, thanks to the Music Speed Changer app I was able to use the time to learn a couple of tricky sections of a song. Very pleased with it

I get a warm fuzzy feeling inside to read these kind of comments. People just liking the bass simply because it's a great instrument. Not it's ok for the price, or it'll be ok if I change this this and this, in fact no qualification at all. Just this is a great bass oh and by the way - look at the price!

🤦‍♂️ You'll no doubt be delighted to know I zeroed the scale AFTER applying the towel.

I thought the black would ruin the aesthetic , but no, this is great. I still like the tort but seriously this is really good.
