I live in north east Somerset and used to gig with a Portsmouth based band. If the music and the people are right the distance doesn't matter.

Lovely. I do like a bit of droneage

After owning this pedal for a little while now, I finally used it successfully at a gig last night. Up until now I'd been hamstrung by not understanding the editor and so relying on patches made by others which I then couldn't tweak to suit my needs So what changed? I found this video . It completely demystified so much of the editor that I was able to build and modify a series of patches, all of which I employed yesterday to great effect. I hope some other befuddled Basschatter finds it useful

Theo Katzmann in Bristol. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. D I Joe on bass, musicianship from everyone was entirely off the charts, and he's such a great songwriter. Truly wonderful

I think @admiralchew has won. Can we close this thread now.

Never felt the need to change the pickups so I honestly can't say. Some people who have stronger views on these things change them without trying them. I've never had a problem with the parts on HB basses. Funnily enough I was thinking about this in relation to the Sandberg I mentioned earlier. The finish is bubbling and peeling off one of the tuners - I noticed it on Friday - never had anything like that on my 'cheap' basses.

Has it arrived?

Bought this here a couple of weeks ago. It's the lightest, fastest HB jazz I've ever played. Oh and the shell pink finish is really lovely. I gigged it this weekend. The previous gig I had used my Sandberg California - a truly beautiful instrument to play. I have to say there was absolutely no drop in quality. None. Not in sound, feel, balance or playability. Anyone trying to convince me that price is any indication of quality, or 'you get what you pay for' has their work cut out I'm afraid.

I built this board. I had a top bar and sides left over after fitting a power bar to my 60cm board. So I added a couple of bits of batten some velcro and a couple of bolts for feet and presto! The Harmonic Booster is at the end, the comp and octaver are first everything else is in the loop of the X5.

Fascinating stuff, thank you

I went for the no fuzz for Nazi scum one.

ITDAA you'd think they'd sell one type of unit and let you install whichever software suited you. Rather than separate bass and guitar models, let the user decide. Surely more cost effective than producing different bodies.

I still get disappointed at the self serving decisions people make in music. But I'm getting over it now. I need the work. It used to be a passion, but while nowadays I'm still passionate about playing, it's a job first and foremost. My favourite singer and very close friend recently pulled out of a project I'd set up. I didn't get stroppy, she had a heavy workload and said she couldn't commit to it. Then not long after she went and auditioned for a busy function band. Does it sting? Fk yes. What's my attitude towards it? Stay cool, after all I may pick up some dep work with her new band. And she puts regular work my way in another project. If I stuck out my bottom lip and spat out my dummy, how much better off would I be?

What a beautiful blue black head cab combination. Really pleasing on the eye.

My 60B lives in my Bits Box, also known as my Get Out Of Jail Free box. I have pressed it into service many times. As a replacement or in its own right when travelling light. I wouldn't be without it. I would however happily be with a new improved version.
