    And it's a bass you can see in the photo. It'd probably be a Les Paul if it was a Marshall.

    Anyone need an Atelier shortie? https://bassbros.co.uk/product/2024-atelier-z-baby-z-4j-vintage-2/

    I will second that video. I bought a pack of medium scale shorties strings off Merton (excellent seller BTW). They are just excellent. Stainless steel aren't normally my thing and I still think they're not, but these are less grabby than others I've tried. The E string on my Mustang has never sounded better. If you like rounds, give Newtone's shorty sets a go. They're a big step up in clarity from the D'Addarios I had on it.

    Merton

    MichaelDean replied to Merton's topic in Feedback

    I also got some strings from Merton and it was a super simple transaction and quick turnaround!

    No... I left it in the kitchen for ages thinking that would prompt me. Instead it just annoyed my wife 😂 I've got serious GAS for a new bass, so it would be good to get this finished. Just haven't had the time!

    Ooooooh. I've got plenty of ideas! 1. Darkglass Anagram 2. Mortrix MIDI controller 3. Boss FV-1W 4. Harley Benton Spaceship 40 (to fit the above on!) 5. Dingwall D-Roc 5 string I'm sure that'd all fit under the tree 😂

    I bought a Hohner Arbor Series P bass quite a few years ago. Never gelled with that thing. It looked really cool in white/white/maple, but that wasn't enough to save it. Neck was too big for a 4 string for me and just something about it wasn't quite right. I think I'm coming to the realisation that maybe I don't like P bass pickups. I'm thinking about moving on a PJ bass I've currently got and my Squier SS Jaguar's P pickup got changed for a Mustang pickup 🤔

    I did get one in the end and both guitarists in my band want them now too! I'm very pleased with mine.

    I guess if it had a companion receiver unit, you could use it as a wireless too? That could be cool. Combine it with a wireless footswitch and you'd have a fully wireless rig.

    I didn't mean it in a contrary way. Tone of voice often doesn't come across well over the internet. I'm interested in what you think they're missing on this.
  12. MichaelDean
    What opportunity though? They've also got the ToneX One and the original three button ToneX. I'd say the only thing they're missing is a bigger floorboard that's also a fully fledged multi effects unit.

    Turn all of the controls down. Then turn them up individually and tap on the pickups lightly with a metal object to see what turns what on. Turn it down again and repeat until you've worked it out. Usually any blend control will have a centre detent so you know you're in the middle. A tone won't turn the pickups on.
  14. MichaelDean
    It's a practice tool. It isn't meant to be any use on stage. Same form factor as the Boss Katana Go, Fender Mustang Micro, Blackstar Beam Solo, etc, but with the ToneX captures instead of amp models.
  15. MichaelDean
    I'd imagine the stock cab is 8 ohm and you'd want another 8 ohm load to bring it down to 4. I'd email Ashdown to make sure.
  16. MichaelDean
    Yes, that was the term! Otherwise known as late/slow/unprofessional! 😂
