Cool!! How do you find the compressore Stew? I've got my eye on one 😁

Yes it's a one piece body,with a striking grain. Pickup is a MM 4.3 MM4.3 The MM4.3 will drop into a Music Man® Sterling® or other 3-way switched installation, and features a dummy coil on the bottom for silent single coil mode. Like the MM4.2, the MM4.3 features Alnico V magnets and Heavy Formvar wire for an authentic early pre-Ernie Ball® tone—punchy, growly, and fat. Includes black cover (exposed pole pieces). I'm actually not so keen on the single/series modes! They seem to cut a lot of the treble and bass. The paralell mode is pure vintage ray! All i need 😁

While my children are still young, I'll just have my jazz/P bass/Sterling and hope to god no more stinky poo comes up,where I've to sell another one. Is there an ex pro player who never had any more than 6 basses at time section? The one where life keeps intervening, and they have to be sold 😂 I also have a terrible pedal addiction, I'd say this thread is transferable to the effects section too 😁

Absolutely spot on!! 😂 Perhaps if everyone learned to love flatwounds, then future GAS could be avoided 😁

She's back with me! And I was the one that named her Rita 😁 I bought her from The original owner Greeneking who fitted the Nordstrand. I also remember seeing her with another basschat owner in Bassist magazine. Recently had a new nut fitted a full setup/electrics check and a clear perspex guard. Somewhere down the line a horrible nut making the strings narrower was fitted! I got that fixed as soon as I could afford it. I've had her back about a year now. I first owned her 12 years ago, I got from Warwickhunt who traded it to me, I part traded it later to a young fella Josh whom I believe sold her to you Mr Wrinkleygit. I recall I PM'D as I followed her adventures and missed out on need a 2nd time to Warwickhunt who can't help himself and sold her a second time 😂 She stays with me and had been doing a lot of recording recently. Small body/slim neck of a sterling and the Alnico vintage balls of a classic ray, and looks amazing Funny everybody loved her, NOBODY kept her😂 I regretted parting straight away,even though It was for a Ken smith.

Slight digression! I'd this Hot one stuff any good? I'm just looking at their funky looking bit crusher. I assume the build/sound quality is comparable to the Mooer?

Lol! That sounds about right 😂

I've always thought of the Darkglass to be very "Metal" sounding so I've always avoided it. I'm sure if I tried it,I would like it.nigh on every Demo of the pedal seems to have the same harsh/grainy extreme top end distortion sound. For me the Tech21 VTbass (any version) on the B15 settng does the Motown sound perfectly and a lot cheaper than Darkglass 😁

I must admit as I'm getting older,The temptation to put flats on all my basses is high 😂 My P is currently wearing TI's which I love, but yes they have a very mid/high range to them, I plan to replace them with Labella which have a deep/warm tonewithout much high end Not too long ago,I had a Yamaha BB with EB Cobalt flats they 're fantastic and have a broken in nickel roundwound tone with a nice supple tension. I'm currently considering removing the Badass/East pre from my jazz,and returning it to passive, I'll probably get some cobalt flats for it too. D'addario chromes have a very bright but clanky high mid tone,which is great for Rawk.

IIRC The funk face sounds very like the EHX Bassballs but with a tube drive, rather than a fuzz. Maybe the tube will give it a richer voice, but the Bassballs will give you that sound for a lot less Shackles.

It's a pleasure to start a feedback thread for this fine Gentleman. Derrick is the lucky owner of my 3 leaf Enabler. Very friendly comms and super fast payment. Deal with confidence

Just bought a VTBassDI from Paul! An absolute pleasure to deal with, regular friendly comms and arrived well packaged the very next day. A credit to the community, deal with confidence. Thanks again Paul
