Bought from @Shepster8316 this week. I've been learning compression for a while now. It's been an uphill trudge but I'm getting somewhere at last. I quite like the Compressore from Markbass, also I have a few which seem to do very little to change any part of my sound, and some which are so extreme they hoover up a bunch of unwanted noise at anything beyond minimal settings. Having only played with the Clearcomp for a short time since the postie knocked this morning I can already tell a few positives. It's silent. It has a hugely flexible but very clearly labelled set of controls. It's beautifully made. It has a dry blend. I managed to dial in a pretty usable sound reasonably quickly, which augers well for the future. Oh and it has a multi coloured flashy light too!

Just bought a pedal from @Shepster8316 and the deal could not have been sweeter. Perfectly clear and prompt communication throughout, extremely well priced, fast delivery and excellent packaging. There is no way you could improve on this transaction.

Luckily guitar players are 10 a penny so you ought to find hundreds. It's finding the ones who want to work like you want to work. The best guitarist I've played with is like me, he'd rather chew through his own leg than waste time and money in band rehearsals. Imagine being expected to go to work , in your time, and paying to be there, because your coworkers needed you there so they can practice working. 🤦

Great thanks. Sounds wonderful

I know nothing about this pedal. Tell me more

Still waiting...

It's awful you would hate it

It's an interesting pedal. It kind of sounds like its name. It doesn't fit with much of what I play live but it's fun to add it here and there. I guess I use it something like a bubbly rhythmic auto wah. Ish.

Just ordered mine. Nate Navarro's video is a bit of all right.

Not heard of him. I have now though! Thank you.

The latest iteration of my basic bi-amp board. Some pedals seem to have found a 'permanent' home, others keep changing still but I'm definitely getting closer. The Ampero has three switchable effects and a tuner on the extension switch and is doing a lot of preamp, signal splitting, compression, noise gate type stuff in the background.

Actually that is what I've been doing. Odd.

That's the problem - ta!

I had a dalliance with the MM pick up but in the end as I didn't know many of the songs we played I just stuck it on the P pup and left it - lots of sight reading and concentration!

I will pay for the information!

I have not

Anyone know why my YT vids are coming up as links instead of the video?

Listen to the bass on this beauty... https://youtu.be/FWT2WBkPtfE

We took our Bandeoke show to the Blue Lagoon in Bristol last night. First time there, and sadly a very quiet night. However those who were there couldn't have been more enthusiastic, one young woman even came up and gave us a 20 quid tip! The dearth of punters meant we basically played a two hour request show. I used my new HB 25th anniversary bass, Bugera Veyron into Barefaced Compact and jolly good it all was too. Just after we had finished the pack down a rugby team walked in. If only they'd been an hour earlier....

I can honestly say I had it hung round my neck for over two hours straight last night and I did not notice the weight. I do use a wide Gruvgear strap, but I believe it is the perfect balance of the bass makes it work.

Beautiful instrument. Wonderful sound, played like a dream. I love it.

First time out with the new HB. Bandeoke in Bristol. Sounded glorious in the soundcheck.
