I did three gigs with my sunburst HB JP450 yesterday, and it received a lot of compliments for it's look and sound. I have to say it was extremely easy on the shoulder after more than five hours of gigging and I had no problem getting a good sound at wildly differing venues.

That's a very good question. I'll try to record a side by side

Gig number two was a success. Afternoon Sunday gigs can be a bit slow but these guys were up for it. Set up ready for number three now back in the centre of Bristol. My feet hurt.

First of 3 today done. One hour set at a St Patrick's day thing in Bristol. Travelling light today because of all the travel.

Mine just arrived and it definitely is not going back. A lovely wet, splashy envelope. The down stroke is the best I've heard. Looks great, sounds great 👍

Nice covers all the essentials 👌

Ha! I felt one of each would be enough 🤣

No

I have one of each and they are excellent instruments.

I took am contemplating this with great interest

I love my Electra. A real cut above the average bass

@jezzaboy is the perfect example of the perfect Basschatter. Fast delivery, excellent packaging, great communication. Deal with absolute confidence.

Just finished a run of five gigs on the bounce. Given my diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome a few years back I've had to manage my rest carefully this week but I managed it, and thoroughly enjoyed them all.

I love mine too. Glad you took the plunge

Yep. It's the real deal. I have a system for moving it. But I won't lie it is a beast

Happy to retitle this one if you like. As we're all here already.

I did my regular Wednesday Bandeoke this week. Usually I take a small, light rig, for convenience as much as anything. However I watched Bass The World's review of the new Orange valve head yesterday, and it gave me a hankering to enjoy a proper amp. So tonight I used this set up and it was an unforgettable experience. A bass you can feel as much as hear, a tone to die for, it was worth every ounce.

You know that headless bass you never play because the tiny body pushes the neck away so it just feels horrible? Cheap, simple, removable fix. Going to tidy the strap end a bit otherwise there she is.

The Joyo has a slight delay between pressing the switch and the fuzz kicking in. It's a tiny bit irritating but the sound is so good it's more than worth it. I've never heard a better dirt pedal than the Hot Wax, and I've tried plenty. The Poly Blue Octave does so much more than you imagine an octave pedal could that I think of it as more of a multi effect. This board was very satisfactory.
