Lol I know! I should have put #EBSpleasegivemeanartistdeal At the end 😂

So as I've recently bought back an old bass, a few of my posh pedals had to go. As I haven't gigged for nearly 3 years seemed daft. I've still got a few decent noisemakers on the board though. The usual signal chain setup EBS Microbass 2 - A/B box/ Preamp/DI/ Overdrive/ headphone amp and Effects loop. Very very useful bit of kit and great quality sound. In the loop I have all of the effects, so I can use them through the Headphones. EBS Multi Comp- I've owned nearly every high end pedal comp there is and loved a few of them. I've used an EBS comp in some way ever since my first in 2002 (I've had 6 😂) I always go back to this, easy to use and it sounds great, versatile with the modes and adds to the tone which i love BOSS LS2 - splits the signal after the comp, so all effects have compression beforehand. Has two seperate lines of FX that I can switch between or run in parallel Loop A - general effects. MXR Bass Octave Deluxe- I had one of these before and while I loved the tone and tracking, it had a noise issue. I really needed an Octave thst tracks well with active basses, and this was the best I'd tried in that application. To different voices to mimic the EBS and OC2 Sounds and this one isn't noisy. EBS Bass IQ - this is a great sounding filter!! Lots of variation with the modes and simple to use. Not as fat or resonant as my 3 leaf, but has a great tight/clear filter tone that cuts through really well. EBS Unichorus - Chorus/Flanger and pitch mod. Gorgeous Analog tones in a bombproof box EBS Dphaser - As above but a funky, swirly,fat and very cool Digital Phaser. I love this thing Donner Deluxe Mini tuner- kept losing the Headstock thing and got fed up of asking the the Keyboard player to give me an E 😂 Loop B - Synth Channel 3 Leaf Audio GR2 Envelope filter- very fat and resonant filter with a handy Effects loop, so anything in it, doesn't hit the input Detection stage, making for very dynamic synth sounds. This is set for a funky Downsweep, in the loop we have the following Iron Ether Subterranea - Octave/Synth- is a fantastic lofi sounding octaver, with two synth voices and 3 waveforms for each. Very dirty and Analog Synth sounding! I love it Iron Ether Frantabit - Bit Crush and Sample rate reducer- very funky/noisy/mental pedal that's actually really really musical and sounds fantastic. One of my favourite pedals 😂 Emma - Okto Nojs - Octaver and synthy Dynamic Fuzz in one pedal, can be used individualy or combined for Dirty. Funny how I've gone back to EBS pedals, I've always used them,and while maybe not the mist exciting or flashy, they do what they do very well. Fantastic build and great sound, they can also be picked up very reasonably.

I've been a very long time fan of George Benson. I've all his albums, but 'Give me the Night" is one of my favourite albums of all time. I came for George's singing and Guitar playing, and stayed for Abe Laboriels bass playing 😍 (Louis Johnson's on it too 😁)

Gorgeous! Just the Euro 5 I'm after (other than a green one) 😉

The Nano sounds great! I still love what the MXR does though.

Ahh! so it is a different sound to the Micro then?

I've never been a fan of unusually shaped basses! But I have to admit that is one of the most stunning basses ive seen 😁

Very cool indeed Alain!! I love it 😍

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts 😁

I love just tried one of these at a local music shop. The blue one is gorgeous to look at,and the jazz neck is really slim and comfy. With the blocked jazz neck, they should have released this as candy Apple Red, very Duck Dunn.

I love those 50s style p basses, and will probably be the next one I get. These are fantastic quality,not sure how they compare to the newer Vintera versions (seafoam green though 😍)

Bring a long coat x

I've used an MB500 210ii combo for a while now. Previously used very expensive amps (Bergantino/Glockenklang/Epifani/ EBS etc) happy enough with the sound and no fan noise issues (I don't think there is one 😂). As many of the posts above allude too, all the components for most amps cabs etc will be manufactured in Asia. I've just bought a CX115 as I'm now in a band with a couple of guitar "Heroes" 😂 so yet to try this at full 500 watts although it managed at 350.

There's a guy on here selling a Tonepump! It's not a trimpot version though. That pre really needs a trim, my Euro4 LX gas the old non trim! WAY HOT!! Still sounds lush though 😁

Just sold a fuzz to Mike, and what a great chap. Friendly, knowledgeable and a Star Wars Fan to boot. He paid extremely quickly and comms was first rate, A gentleman! Please consider him highly recommended 😁
