just snagged a BB-X1 at a good price on ebay - hopefully it'll be here in time to test it out before Saturday's gig.

The two back screws in tis pic look like they came from B&Q rather than being the type used on instruments, so maybe the bridge isn't original to the bass? In your position I would be inclined to order something like this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/276111677941 and be prepared to fill & redrill the holes if they don't match up.

Here's the latest iteration of my pedalboard. As you can see I am limiting myself to boss pedals at the moment (apart from the thumpinator). I have just today replaced my LMB-3 Bass Limiter Enhancer with the more advanced — and hopefully less hissy BC-1X Bass Comp. I also have a CEB-3 Bass chorus which I took off the board when I bought the AW-3 Dynamic Wah recently. As my board (The most excellent Harley Benton Spaceship Power 50C) has now run out of space, I'll try to not aquire any new pedals for a while, however if a secondhand BB-X1 Bass driver in excellent condition pops up at a good price, the Monte Allum modded ODB-3 might be evicted depending on the results of a shootout.

I'm a perfect example of the Dunning Kruger effect. I think I'm an excellent bass player but in fact I'm somewhere between terrible and mediocre.

Will there be wine & biccies?

Turning the enhance right down on the LMB3 did reduce the hiss a bit, but there was still too much. I'm hoping the BC-1X will work better for me. My new (secondhand) BC-1X should be here tomorrow, so I'll be able to put it on my board and do some A/B testing

Anyone else found a boss LMB-3 to be a very efficient loud hiss generator, even with no signal present? I was having a loud hiss issue with my rig at rehearsal last week and although I suspected that the cab's tweeter had got switched on in transit, on checking the cab at rehearsal today I found that wasn't the case. Then I unplugged my pedalboard and plugged my mustang straight onto the amp and the hiss was totally gone. Only the LMB-3 was actually active on the pedalboard when it was plugged in, with all four knobs at 12 o'clock. I have recently started adding in a bit of extra mids and treble on my ABM600 amp which I guess is exposing the LMB-3 as a bit of a hiss generator whereas it wasn't as noticable when I ran the amp with a flatter eq. I've brought the pedalboard home, so will try to reproduce the issue with my practice amp and investigate further. I've also just ordered a (secondhand) BC-1X so I can also investigate whether that might work any better than the LMB-3 and not add loads of hiss.

I had rehearsal this evening so I checked how the tweeter switch was set on the back of the cab and I was surprised that it was actually off! Taking my pedalboard out of the equation and plugging the bass straight in totally eliminated the hiss. I suspect the boss LMB3 was causing the issue, but I'll need to investigate further.
