    This. For something a little more down to earth have a look at Tesseract's live rig. They're playing backing tracks to the PA and 3 separate click tracks to the band's IEMs from a laptop through an audio interface. Plenty of bands doing it nowadays, especially the click tracks and patch changing.

    Punch in a pedal. Love these.

    Sounds great! The unfortunate thing about it is the name... I've played so much mediocre Laney gear over the years I'd be extremely unlikely to even give something like this a chance, and I assume I wouldn't be the only one. You have to wonder why Laney wouldn't create an offshoot company to minimise the impact the old name might have on sales...

    Wow! Didn't see this coming! Trades of interest Kev?

    I’ll be having a nosey at this when I’m at work tomorrow! Really enjoyed my brief play time investigating the possibility of adding presets to a Darkglass Vintage Microtubes clone using a Nano, a quad digital pot chip, a rotary encoder, a few push switches, a toilet roll tube and some sticky backed plastic...

    That's a great looking bass

    Man if I could find a second one of these I'd be all over this! Still kicking myself for selling my Tech Soundsystems 4x12. What an amazing cab it was...

    These also work as the smallest audio interface in the world!

    I have unnerving GAS for a 6 string, in particular an Ibanez SR1206. Perhaps it's something I ate...

      @Dood - yes, that was my 1006 but it's gone now, and I now have a 1206 as my main bass, though was disappointed to find I couldn't get an East uni pre into the cavity (spent an hour or more with John East trying to figure it out, but it simply won't fit!).

      What you want is to swing by my place and have a fiddle on the Maruszczyk 6 I got last year. Go on.....you know you want to.

    It's certainly closer to what you're looking for than the Guma Antique would be. It was probably a little TOO clean for my purposes so it's definitely one you should try.

    I bought an SQ a few years back for a ton. But it wasn't in anywhere near as good condition as this. Still one of the best bass purchases I ever made. Unfortunately I sold it in a period of skint-dom and the guy won't sell it back! You live and learn...

    There's a flaw with this thinking... Basschat is worse than any guitar shop I've ever been in... Except The Bass Gallery...

    Those inlays are... different...

    Lovely. But I'm skint...

    Not helping my GAS... I'm not even playing live at the minute and unlikely to be any time soon, but I STILL want in on this...

    I've just seen on a certain pickup designer's instagram feed that he's thinking of selling his personal hellborg pre & amp for $3000...

    Vester did make a similar looking article, but I think this is a Westfield VBS4A. The Vesters were actually pretty good!

    Aw man... Collection only kills this for me... Looks like a great bass. Wish I was closer. 😢

    All 4 Ernie Ball basses I owned. 5 string 'ray (bought new) was the best sounding of the bunch but ergonomically I didn't get on with it at all. 4 string 'ray felt ok, but disappeared in the mix and sounded like stinky poo solo. Bongo 5 didn't do it for me at all. Traded it for a Bongo 4 which, again, didn't do anything for me and rattled like mad when I tried to get a medium (not low) action.

    Don't boil your strings. Steep them in meths overnight to clean them then hang them up to dry. Works a treat!

    Gotcha. "Yeah great idea Mrs Painy. He'll be happy forever more and never need any more gear ever."

    You mentioned dUg: http://www.tech21nyc.com/products/sansamp/dug_dp3x.html Surely that's easier than carting another amp and cab? All valve is nice and all, but adding a valve guitar amp won't get you an all valve rig, will it?
