Put this together as a small board for simple rigs when I don't want to fuss with my bi-amp set up. Not that I seem to be gigging now or anytime soon. But board building is fun isn't it? The ms-60b is set as a Flanger and noise gate. Whole thing is powered by a Harley Benton battery.

I've heard great things about the Ibanez - not so easy to find these days. That sounds nice

Houston, we have a problem. The love seat just blew up! The audio exciter got audio over excited, overheated, melted the glue holding it together and prolapsed onto the floor. Back as they say, to the drawing board.

That's great. I have various flanging options on multi effects. I wondered if the standalone pedals offered anything more.

Definitely take a quick video with your phone for the ammoon seller. I've done this and been sent replacements with sellers. Takes seconds. Guitarist I worked with used one of these generic affordable wireless bugs for at least 35 gigs before lockdown and never experienced any issues.

curious the same thing happened twice.

Really nicely done. I too dislike bridge pups on a P. I love your solution, all the benefits of flexibility without spoiling the classic look.

I guess if enough people think it's great then it qualifies. There was a time I might have debated intrinsic greatness versus subjectivity, but now I just go with the flow.

I disagree. Except I actually agree. Let me try that again. I agree that a great bassline doesn't need to be flashy. Imagine AC/DC if the bassist was running up and down the fretboard. It would rip the guts from the song. So there is such a thing as a great bassline. It just doesn't necessarily have to use all the notes all the time.

Not yet, not contacted them yet, still learning the ins and outs.

I quite like these lists. If it introduces me to a great line or a great player, then happy days. Thanks for sharing.

I've had the chance to set up my Bi-amp rig. Main effects board covers both rigs, this went into the loop of the 'treble' amp. It's spectacular! Really good hearing it at volume. I like being able to hear distortion, chorus, envelope filters and so on, working on the higher end of my sound while my big bottom remains solid. I then tried this as a stand alone through a straightforward amp/cab set up. And it's absolutely fine for bass. If you want distortion then this has every conceivable option. I'm even warming to the idea of reverb on a bass! Considering the price point this is an excellent option for recording and live work. It ain't a Helix, but it doesn't claim to be. It's not as flexible as a Zoom but the simple way the menu is organised makes it incredibly easy to use and to understand. The only weakness I've found so far is a small delay when switching between patches. A real issue if you want to bring a different patch in and out during a song. Definitely needs ironing out.

Any flangists out there? What's your favourite, what's it do that you like so much, and where does it sit in your pedal chain?

Not that flush I'm afraid! now that's a great idea.... Just sold my most recent fretless, not for me I'm afraid Now you're talking!

Thank you! OK nice idea

Ha ha - it's for me. But so far we have p bass and shortscale... Oh and jazz...

Thank you. I love how bassist you are with your answers. P-bass trumps baby news 😂😂😂

My first grandson was born in the wee small hours and I just got paid for a bit of work I did. So. What bass related thing should I buy myself to celebrate?

It's great fun.

I only ever mean in my experience when I post. I can't compare with this as I've not used one. Is it really enormous or is the speaker up the wrong way? 🤔

Yep. Same here. Nothing else comes remotely close. It's not a sound, it's an experience.

The maths sounds good and I firmly believe that you cannot have too many amps and cabs in one rig!
