This is what it amuses me to call my whiteboard.

I don't believe bass player A is better than bass player B. Although I will often fall into the trap of using that kind of language. I just have my preferences. It's great these kids have YouTube so we can enjoy the fruits of their labour. Playing skillfully and with high technical proficiency is the result of a lot of hard work and I believe should be celebrated.

Annoyingly the Boss stomps and others of a similar size are too big to fit beneath the NUx Bumblebee. It is a wonderful board otherwise

I did not. I am trying to hold back on my bass purchases as I can no longer get into my room Never say never of course.

I also have a set of HB higher grade flats but not found a home for them yet. I'll report back once I've tried them.

The recycled case is just brilliant!

Yes indeed. However... I do like the sound of rounds on some of my basses

A standard pub gig for me last night. Not played there before (a hotel on the Oxford road just out of Swindon), we found a genial host, and a small but appreciative audience. A bit of a schlep for some of the band , mitigated by an afternoon gig en route to the venue, twice the money for the same journey. At least it would have been if the passing of the monarch hadn't (bafflingly) caused the cancellation of the afternoon event. However, I made a goodly bit of cash during the jubilee celebrations so I can't really complain.

The regular Harley Benton strings have never given me cause for concern, but I thought I'd try a higher grade set, purely in the interest of scientific exploration. I think they cost me 8 quid. These are crazy good strings for very little money. Recommended.

Thank you!

It sounds great . Only one effect I didn't like.

I'll see if I can pull a list off the unit

Yes that's pitch shifted down to BEAD blend 100%.

I suspect my problem is that I like to blend a little of the shifted octave or fifth with the clean sound. You're right - on its own it's not too bad (just not very clean, a bit wobbly) but when blended with the clean signal it's off pitch so the effect is like a bad chorus.

I'll get to it. But you won't like it...

Thanks Jack fascinating for us Beatles historian types

No that's actually very helpful. At least I know 1.0.4 is a real thing, and that it works. I've had a response from Mooer so I'm hopeful I'll achieve a resolution.

Did you update it yourself to that version?

Anyone else bought one of these? If so have you managed to update the firmware? I'm struggling with mine and the customer service is so slooow to respond.

Cheap in ears then spend the real money on the Backbeat. Just my experience. Listening to a live band via earphones and not feeling any bass is a depressing, sterile experience, a million miles away from the real thing. But they are good for singing. Hearing your own vocals so clearly is great. Also cheap wireless bug marketed to guitarists is fine and way less money than you might otherwise spend.

I have a Reverend, and it has elbowed its way to the front of the queue. It plays fine, looks amazing but it's the sound that leaps out at me. I've never played a bass so articulate. Every nuance (and mistake!) Is so clear, it's unforgiving and beautiful all at once
