Same and same. I’m down £400 this month from cancelled gigs.

Since covid I’ve found I can’t manage my fender etc, so switched to these and have never been happier with my basses! I’m longing for an SR2600 in cerulean blue now! I don’t see me going back to bigger basses again now tbh. I desperately miss my old highly figured sr500 though, sold on here with deep regret.

That’s a stunner! A few years back I built a jazz version very similar. Sold it to pay my credit card and have regretted it ever since. Enjoy it 🙂

I bought a bass from Craig that turned out to have a few issues that were only revealed when I changed from his set-up to mine. Craig was amazing from start to finish and quickly had the bass shipped back to him and refunded me in full. He was always super-friendly and polite and couldn't do enough to make sure I was taken care of and reassured. A total gent and I would deal with him time and time again with no hesitation, A true credit to basschat and awesome human.

Another vote for OnSong. It’s just bang on.

I love mine, but it’s rather on the chunky side profile wise. But it is just ace!

Many many years ago I was really, really ill. One early evening during said bout of sickness, I was busy festering in my misery when an unexpected knock at the door roused me from my wobbly pukings. It was my old drummer, who I hadn’t seen in a long old time. Somewhat randomly, he was clutching tickets to the Ozrics, a band I had no interest in. It turns out that they were playing in a local venue that night and he was insisting that I go with him. Feeling super-sick and unable to refuse his random act of kindness, I agreed, and dutifully plodded off to the gig. Once there I spent most of the evening literally propping myself up against a wall whilst the world span around me. The only thing I liked about the experience was the super attractive lady who seemed not-unimpressed by my casual demeanour, and would occasionally meet my eyes and respond with a coy smile… …Until I fainted on top of her, sending us both tumbling to the particularly sticky and disgusting floor in an undignified heap. All I could manage as I was being hauled away was a rambling apology and explanation that I was ill and not drunk. The next time I saw said drummer was several years later, when I was ill and he inexplicably knocked at the door with tickets to see Level 42 at a local venue in an hour’s time. True. And that’s my valuable addition to the Ozrics thread. 😂

Funnily enough, I have a pair of headrush 112s that sound nothing at all alike. It’s a bit annoying tbh.

This sounds extremely familiar!!!

I have a cheap and decent squier mustang for exactly this. I was dubious at first, but boy this thing has blown me away!

Mine’s nothing fancy. Two/three simple signal paths. The zoom is my primary sound. Each bank (a-J) has my basic clean sound in position 1 with the relevant EQ, NR compression etc. Then the remaining three are used for other effects. It mostly stays on bank A where chorus, drive and synth are located as my most used sounds. Everything is then duplicated on the next set of user banks (0-9) but with amp sim for headphone practise. Live I mostly just go from the zoom headphone out to the rolls for my IEMs, taking an aux feed from the desk. This way I have a ‘more me’ control. If I’m using my headrush cabs I go to the eq to cut the very low and very highs, to the preamp strip for volume control and minor tone shaping. (None usually) and then the A/B/Y pedal sends the signal to both cabs. (If I daisy chain them, the second one is noticeably quieter, so this way is better) Finally, if I’m in a rehearsal studio using an amp, or recording, then it’s just straight out the zoom’s L mono out. Simple and not fancy, but I like it.

I’m a huge fan of the zoom bass stuff, excited to see this. The B9.1 is my entire rig these days as I’m ampless. (If anyone has one they’re not using I could use a backup!) I’ll be keeping an eye on this for sure.
