Oooh

Having watched Bass The World's short clips using the JHS Pulp n Peel, I must confess to experiencing serious GAS. It's a ton of cash for a single pedal, but it seems to alter the bass sound significantly, and for the better.

Woohoo!

Used this last night (apologies for crap pic, quick snap taken before packing down). My first time gigging the Source Audio pedals. I've had them forever but I'm nearly there with these two. Despite hours spent levelling the volume most were still way too loud, but I'll get there. It's the issue of bedroom levels versus gig levels. But I have some good sounds and I can call them up via the midi thingy. I actually cannibalised my SA board and my Joyo mini pedal board for this set up. It was a wrench, but silly to have these boards just because they're nice to look at!

You're absolutely right of course. I used to be a steeplejack and carrying lead onto a high roof was simple once it was balanced

It's a weird one. Pick it up and it feels like a bit of a lump. Strap it on (ooer) and it feels fine.

No problems with the weight in the evening. Used a 4" strap and the balance is so good it didn't feel heavy at all. Fabulous sound, beautiful neck, really nice to play

And this evening...

On in 4 minutes

I've yet to find how to assign my own controls to the top two knobs

I have had a breakthrough! I found on the desktop editor a knob assign setting. It's near the bottom and only appears to affect two of the on pedal controls, the bottom two. Labelled appropriately in the C4 but not on the Spectrum, but they're the same. I select input gain for control 1 and master for control 2 and any discrepancy in the output is easily corrected on the fly. Any failure to prompt the envelope can be adjusted on control 1. It's very satisfying.

Going to gig mine in Saturday. I'll report back.

How's this for the most unbass player like image ever?

We can't afford to light the house so it'll have to wait until morning and the sun. But if you watch Bass The World's review it's the same

Yes. 16 now. It is a thing of truly extraordinary beauty. If I had bought a bass of this quality, second hand, for double what I paid, I would have felt guilty. It's not as light as my other HBs but thankfully not as heavy as my other HB Jazz. A comfortable weight. But oh my goodness it looks so nice

I will know by this afternoon. Just heard from the courier

The plot thickens...

I apologise for misleading the house. I have 15 HBs. I missed a few. I deeply regret this matter.

Good idea!

But... they're so cheap

Any way all silliness aside I was responding to the suggestion that you weren't surprised it was heavy because it's a Harley Benton. One heavy bass out of a collection of 12 doesn't seem heavy to me was my point. If this one is a lump it'll be a shame but not what I expected.

But he's a lobster
