    And more cab sim stuff! https://www.pedalpcb.com/docs/UniCab.pdf
  3. What’s the string spacing like at the bridge on this?

    This looks quite interesting for anyone interested in cab sims: https://shift-line.com/card.php?device=10086
  5. @irvined colour me interested! What are you using them all for, if you don't mind me asking?
  6. ...and an omnicabsim mini or broughton lpf to deal with your fuzz problem. Could add higher feet to the nano and it MIGHT fit on the underside...
  7. It would seem a lot of people don't know how to manage their inbox...
  8. I’m a lifelong member of SBL... but this tactic boils my fosters...
  9. The whole "uniqueness" tack is a bit rich. VFE started making the triumvirate quite a few years ago... and only recently stopped... and now ashdown have come out with something very similar, but 3 times the size... Yay for progress!
  10. Analogue pedals will always have their place, same as valve amps. Some folks will never be swayed by all the digital shenanigans. Likewise many are unlikely to be swayed by anything in that video. Everything about the subject and contents of that “demo” is half baked at best...
  11. "Seek and destroy" by Metallica. I didn't even know who Metallica were... Edit: actually the first tune I could play was the theme to top gun on my brother's guitar... VERY badly...
  12. That feeling when you've been eyeing up a B-stock item on Thomann, eventually talk yourself into it, and it's gone...

      It's like you're in my head @SICbass!

      It has saved you a bit of dosh. There will always be more gear out there for you to buy in future
      But for now..... control your urges man! ;) I'm trying to control my GAS..... trying!

  13. Or: https://www.thomann.de/gb/doepfer_mbp25_elektronic_with_1_pedal.htm
  14. Meh...
  15. Was just looking at this on Alan’s Instagram feed. I’ll say the same I said there. Perfection!
  16. Hi Gareth - is there much "give" in the width of the bag? Looking for something to carry my helix in. It's a hair over 22" long.
  17. I have the first version of this, pre-EVO series. I'll never sell it. Best amp I've ever owned. Somebody get this bought!
  18. Really going "The Distance" there @Sibob! Nom, nom, nom, lovely Cake! Haven't a clue which is which! Both sound great.
  19. How silly of me! I shall go and restring all me basses in this fashion...
  20. Where are those ball ends secured?!
  21. The nicest P I've played recently was a Fender 50's Original series. Beautiful instrument. Nicely played in feel from a spanking new bass but not a slim neck so definitely try as many as you can and pick what fits you best. One man's meat and all that...
  22. As @Dood points out, this is unfortunately not the case with many post 2012 Apple laptops (and many models of Mac Mini post 2013 and iMac post 2013 too - some 27" iMacs of the same date CAN be upgraded). I intentionally went for an older MB Pro so I could make further changes down the line. That meant I had to go for a 2012, non-retina machine. i7, 16Gb RAM, 256Gb SSD and 1Tb drive replacing the DVD drive. It's heavier than I'd like, can't support Mojave (even though Apple say it should), is about as quick as it can possibly get already and it's certainly not as sleek as newer offerings, but it's blisteringly quick for a machine of its age, much quicker than my relatively new i5 windows laptop at similar tasks (i5, 8Gb, 256Gb SSD). That's an apples and oranges comparison, but there's 6 years between them! I'd echo others in recommending you buy the absolute best spec you can afford.
