I aquired this recently! An MXR Phase 99, two phase 90s in one enclosure. They can be run series or parallel (strereo setup needed for parallel) with one amp, it acts as a single phaser in parallel, series can be ran with different speeds, or a handy switch synchs them up, sounds really thick but adds a lot of extra boost. It also has the "script" switch which is labelled vintage on this pedal. Ive yet to try it with my setup, im sure itll sound wild in parallel with an OC2.

Might be cheaper than some of the used ones🫢

Actually my good friend @AndyTravis said the same thing, it stopped moving and i thought that was as far as itll go.

No its fully loosened (maxed is wrong 😊) and wont move, but the neck is completly flat (no bow) so the lighter strings are too low (bridge saddles up full too) ive bought some heavier strings to put more tension on the neck.

Ive decided to get back into the Yamaha camp. Ive had a very large cull of gear recently, and after selling my sire 5s, i was without a 5 string. Im mostly a 4 string player, but like to have a decent 5, as ive owned BB 424/425 and 1024/1025x Yamaha was an obvious choice, so i decided to try the newer BB435 Really surprised how light it is and how slim/flat the neck is, so easy to play, i love the painted headstock and the V/V/T controls. Im not sure on the tone, theyre supposed to be brighter than the originals, but sound quite muffled, although ive nit tried it with my rig yet. A slight issue im having is this particular bass while bought used had pretty much been untouched. The action is far too low, and due to wrist issues ivehad to go to 125- 40 gauge, but the neck is straight and the truss rod maxxed, so i cant raise the action (the saddles are also very high) ive ordered a heavier gauge string, so hopefully will put a bit more bow in the neck. I think once i can sort it, itll he a lovely bass (a tort guard will be on the works too)
