  1. I'd say that adds quite a lot. I like the MS60B in all that, a really useful Swiss army pedal.
  2. It's quality sometimes..not just about the quantity
  3. I've worked several bands with a singer, who I plan never to let go. First time I met her was in a car park, she was getting my gear out of the car before we'd even been introduced. Hell of a voice too. I've been around too many years to check the teeth of a gifted horse.
  4. I think @Baloney Balderdashjust won the thread.
  5. Some great replies - thanks folks. I was putting together a bass synth board (in my head at least) ready for a gig on Thursday. Time was against me so I ended up just taking a synth pedal which is such a cop out I know. I plan to revisit the project today. Planning to include the EHX Blurst with an expression pedal attached, which I thought might be fun. Here's the chair top experimental board I'll have to put a SoundCloud clip up. It actually sounds good.The Blurst I'm not sure about. Doesn't really add anything. What I've learned is that the compressor is important before the dirt and octave. A little of the clean sound with the octave down helps tighten things up too. The filter twin is the absolute icing on the cake. The best filter I found in this set up. The noise gate I think I need, but I'm not sure. We all like a little glitch as the note fades, don't we?
  6. Thought this might be fun. Not a thread for actual synth pedals, which are utterly incredible these days. I'm after those of us who also enjoy the old fashioned way to 'build' a synth bass sound by stacking individual stomp boxes. What do you use? In what order? To produce what sound?
  7. You can practice with headphones plugged directly into the backbeat. But live it just handles the bass.
  8. I suspect he's not being specific. Just outlining the way he learned by recognising patterns on the fretboard.
  9. Bruce was the one who stood up to him as far as I can gather. Elvis also took umbrage with the Big Wheel which was, I believe, the breaking point.
  10. The American sound is my 'always on' pedal of choice. I like the tone controls and the way it helps me sit in the mix. The Oxford I plan on using to kick things up to a more distorted, louder sound for filling beneath solos and such.
  11. Mine has arrived, second hand from here. Not gigged it yet but had a play at home. Different again from all the others in this series. Hard to describe a pedal with such a variety of sounds available. It's not fuzzy, not ratty, more..throaty? Either way another great Joyo pedal.

  13. I was in the opposite situation which is why I bought the tube one - I just had to try it! I find the MOSFET easier to get the sound I like. Probably because I'm more familiar with it than through any failing in the tube model. But honestly, they're both great.
  14. I have the Veyron M and the T. Gigged both, either will do you proud. Seriously loud, reliable amps in a lightweight package
  15. Not home but at the singer's home after a private party in some god forsaken part of Wiltshire. Went really well, a lot of extremely drunken people which is never pretty but they were well behaved. Used the Nuke in biamped mode. Sounded mighty
  16. I don't wish to start a thread derailing debate so I'll retire from the conversation.
  17. "don't use ivory, ivory is bad" Uses a piece of bone instead 🤦
  18. There is at the moment for sure. But I never leave home without my Elf.
  19. That would look awesome with a tort scratch plate 😉
  20. Just received a pedal, arrived well packaged after an entirely painless transaction. I'm more than happy to recommend this most excellent Basschatter.
  21. I wouldn't dream of it
  22. I always feel sad when I sell an amp. But you're right I can't lift it
