Anyone know where I can buy the Oxford Sound? Haven't been able to find one anywhere.

Thank you all so much

A friend is writing and producing his own music at home and wondered if there are any (non Facebook) places online where he can solicit advice and share ideas. I said I'd ask here. So I am asking here.

Set mine up as a preamp today into a power amp which has a crossover built in. Very nice Trace Elliot emulation.

Great board

Saw Cory Wong last night in Bristol. Absolutely extraordinary musicianship. Wonderful, just wonderful.

Don't be so quick to judge on price alone. There are some true pearls available for peanuts out there. This is a, erm, striking pearl.

Has anyone bought a bass on a whim just cos of its looks? Yes. Often.

Delighted to join the chorus of praise for this most excellent Basschatter. I have just concluded a transaction with him which was as smooth as a pint of Murphy's. Utterly bomb proof packaging, a more than fair price, instant response to any queries - I can't recommend him highly enough.

Crappy low light pic of the rig in question As you can see the shape is very similar to the SVT, but not the controls.

Some beauties there @bassist_lewis

You need an edge on cab or head. Darnit

I was in precisely this position once and it is a source of constant regret that I turned it down. Say yes, do it, and if you don't like it bail out.

This is what you want

🤷‍♂️

In short, it's an envelope filter. Here's the blurb: Envelope Filter — A colourful, resonant filter that follows and responds to your picking dynamics. Step Filter — A groovy, arpeggiated filter with fully adjustable steps. Manual Filter — Great for static tone shaping or sweep-able, wah-like effects using an expression pedal. Each of these modes offers 4 filter types: low-pass, band-pass, high-pass and peaking. Sweep range and resonance width are also adjustable, and on top of all of these, a dedicated mix knob allows blending of the wet and dry signals. This gives you total control of how much filtering effect is imparted on your guitar, bass or synth signal. Smart!

Who can say? Maybe it was, but it has now become iconic

Maybe the op is in a different country. If so my apologies.

Do Rotosound Nexus strings count? I've had a set on my black precision for a year now. Used them last night in fact. One string shows a tiny amount of wear otherwise the coating is fine. I use a mix of fingerstyle/pic about 90/10 in favour of fingerstyle. I find them so much kinder on the hands compared with other rounds. They don't tarnish, they sound and look great. Oh and I just checked to see when I bought them and noticed they're on offer on Amazon for 20 quid so I'm going to get me some more.

Yep. Nothing like my SVT but still sounds great. Of course it's styled like that because that's a classic look for a bass amp. It certainly informed my decision to buy it.
