NPD!! sold my old faithfull EBS Unichorus and bought an MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe!! Absolutely delighted with it,especially the flanger which sounds fantastic. The EBS flanger was very subtle like a flanger/chorus, but the MXR sounds much more like a flanger! I love it it looks great too,definately put MXR on my radar.

I really wanted to like Dunlop superbrights,but i found the tone rather bland (IMO of course) although they are very flexible and bright they just didn't sound as rich in the lows for fingerstyle as DR's. Dood is spot on though! I wipe my strings with "fast fret" after every rehearsal/gig

Definitely DR High Beams!!! Been my string of choice for many many years. flexible, bright and deep with a bit of crunch and rattle when you dig in

After taking delivery of a bass Chorus Deluxe I think I'll be looking at moving on my phase in the new year to get a phase 95! BTW the phase 99 is pretty great too im guessing the phase 95 is a reaction to the mooer orange 60 which does block and script! would be curious to compare the two.

Lol bonkers!!! I need an OC2 again!! I keep selling them and regretting it

Ive been after a 95 for a while as i love my phase 90 but really want a script version and my boards a bit crowded (I'm trying really hard not to get a bigger board) this looks ideal!! The sounds didn't really sound night and day in this demo though. Q! I thought the block and script phase 90's weren't true bypass as well

Just a little update!! The keyboard bag I had my amp in fits the Metro 20 perfectly! With a little extra room to put the massive Cioks dc5 plug and my microphone my Gallien Kruger head fits perfectly in the Metro 20 soft case HOWEVER!! I've just discovered Pedaltrain have sorted themselves out and now sell an upgraded premium gigbag for most of their boards!! expensive but look perfect https://buypedaltrain.com/collections/cases/products/pt-m20-psc-x

I can't quantify it! but the older non true bypass EBS pedals just seemed to sound better to me. They do have a very slight boost when engaged, but that can work well in certain situations. Ive avoided the studio editions as i feel EBS pedals have gradually got cheaper looking/feeling over the years as the company got bigger (and i am a major EBS fan and have owned most of their pedals several times over and used their amps for years) ive never tried the SE versions so can't comment on sound

Please try the Octabass gents! I think it'll tick a lot of boxes. Its always been a favourite of mine, ive had two, the original black label (not the first grey pedals) and a later true bypass "improved" version. Both tracked extremely well and have a great clean octave tone, with a lot of variety with the range switch

in the past I've used many high end cables for instruments and speakers (Monster/Evidence Audio/Zaolla) and i can tell the difference in tone (I did really like the Zaolla but it went intermittent ans I had to stop using it). For a few years now, I use exclusively OBBM ' S rockwire for bass cables/patch leads and speaker cable! I'm very happy with them, sounds great and not daft money

i believe the Cog TK421X is RAT based and gas a clean blend! ! its discontinued though, but a mk2 is on the cards

The latest version of my board! recently sold a bass so had a bit of cash to splash on the board. I added a couple of new pedals and finally upgraded to a cioks DC5. my chain as follows Cali 76 CB into a Boss Ls2 set to A/B/Bypass (the cali works on every channel) bypass channel - goes into TC Polytune mini straight to amp as my clean channel. channel A - 3 leaf Wonderlove with Cog T65 in the effects loop. The T65 has a 3 leaf your doom in its effects loop. This allows me to use the parallel octave and preserve the dynamic nature of the you're Doom while octave/fuzz are in the wonderlove loop, so the dynamics of that are not affected. This is my Synth channel Channel B - this is my dirt channel with a Cog Knightfall always on and switchable with the ls2. I also have the phase 90 and EBS unichorus when I want modulation (will turn off knightfall) and by switching the LS2 into Bypass A/B mix mode I can blend the modulation wirh the synth channel when required, or use a clean blend with the knightfall. dead chuffed with this setup and it's working well, so I think I'll leave it, although I may just have room for a TC sub n up mini or a cog T16 for clean octave

I recently replaced a very old Badass 2 on my JV Jazz with a Hipshot Kickass and i'm very happy! it has the same look, albeit the saddles look more modern and sturdy. it has fantastic adjustability, and it definitely adds presence and depth to the tone (IMO). it actually improves the look as the ball ends are recessed into the tailpeice, it is a heavy bridge though an adds significantly to the weight. I also have a Fender Nate Mendel P that has been modded with a BBOT bridge and has flats, as i'm going to be changing to rounds on this bass, i'm seriously considering putting a kickass on this too. I have always felt that a badass didn't look as good on a P bass, but the Kickass/badass design is a fairly classic look these days, and i definitely think a better bridge improves the tone bit sick i missed this!, i,ve had a wanted ad up for a couple of weeks too, it does look nice on a P actually http://basschat.co.uk/topic/314782-sold-hipshot-kickass-4-string-bridge-chrome/
