I generally with until my basket hits the free postage point before I buy. With a sexy new HB bass in the offing I doubt this will prove difficult.

Believe me it's unusual for me to go for the expensive option in life, in fact very strange indeed. But in this case I believe it's the right option for me. It's simple to edit effects and patches without recourse to a computer, I believe the effects I use most sound better than my other Zoom pedals, the big screen is visible to my lousy eyesight, the tuner is excellent, the effects bypass switch a good addition, the overall tone and volume controls with real life knobs priceless, the DI out useful for me, two inputs useful for me, the different colours for different effects being mirrored on the switches is great on stage, the effects loop a welcome addition, the scene mode for songs is cool. It ain't perfect. I'd have preferred an expression pedal built in like the guitar model has, I'd have liked a couple more foot switches - but four is actually ok for me - and the DI switches seem not to make much difference to my ears. It's a bit big but I'm old and short sighted so that's ok.

I remodelled a headstock with no special tools. Hacksaw, lots of sandpaper and patience. It's the painting would stymie me

eBay has some from China for under a tenner but they're opaque. Covering the bass is one thing, but you still want to see it though.

Cool. If you're happy with the B3n, then you win! Saved a bag full of money.

I'm very excited. Harley Benton is the brand I'm most excited about. My chance to own expensive basses from new, without spending a fortune.

That looks like a good guess

It's what a lime about Vulfpeck. They did it in reverse. Started out as a super band then dissipated into many different bands.

I have no clue. Been wrestling with is it a jazz or is it a p. They recently brought out some well funky guitars but this is the wrong finish for a bass version of those. I guess these campaigns are designed to get us talking, and I'm quite happy to play my part.

Bought the Wet Leg album yesterday. It's been on fairly heavy rotation this weekend.

He's very excited about it isn't he? I wonder, is there something wrong with his hand? Wondering if it's a Scott Devine type thing, we're all irritated by the stupid glove, then it turns out he has to wear it.

This. Had to move on a couple of beautiful looking and sounding basses over the years because I just can't bear neck dive.

If I still drank I wouldn't have any money left for this kind of accident. What a beauty!

Needless to say I'm a bit excited. But got to move something out to make room.

Brilliant, thank you

Thank you, that makes sense. But why the two dots?

Hey Tom.. what's all this business?

Oh and also, while editing on the pedal, which is how I always work, pull down the menu, 1st page, bottom row centre, Edit All button. It's almost perfect. It allows you to work from one screen without going back and forth to the main menu. Why only almost? No shortcut to change the order of effects. Otherwise it's great. The little red squares above the effects are on off switches, which I also didn't know.

Just connected up my expression pedal to the B6. It's the cheap Gear Ex-P by M-Audio which I suspect a lot of people have. First tip is under the expression pedal there's a switch, switch it from 'M-Audio' to 'Other'. It doesn't seem to make a difference with some effects but with the B6 it most definitely does. I tried it in all its functions and the whammy was the most pleasing to me. Smooth and sweet all the way up. Or down. In fact taking it down a couple of octaves is a really cool effect I shall definitely use.

Nice one thank you!

Very slack. Tut tut
