[quote name='fragility' post='427507' date='Mar 6 2009, 07:45 PM']...so perhaps have a few days off, and find someone who annoys you ?[/quote] I like that thinking..

Yeah, i havnt been to any gigs for a while now either. Maybe that is having an affect. And i find it easier to write something when i have a purpose for it. ie, a band. Right now i'll sit here trying to put ideas together, but dont really have the enthusiasm for it.

Ive been playing bass for around 6 years now, and for the first time i feel like im starting to lack inspiration. I pick up my bass and just...dont feel it. Its like im stuck in a "same old, same old" mind set. Dont get me wrong, I dont think I could ever give up playing bass! But I just seem a little empty at the moment. Maybe its due to stresses in real life (job searching, again!), maybe its because I havnt played in a band for years, maybe its because i havnt spent any savings on GAS for a good while! I just dont know. Ive tried listening to songs/artists i normally wouldnt, to try and new learn things, but it just doesnt seem to be happening. Im not really having fun when i play anymore. It feels too repetitive. Has anyone else felt like this before? What do I dooo?! I think a new bass might help

I get the feeling i'll be hurt if i dont choose OBBM..

What cables do you guys use for your pedalboards? George L's seem to be the top ones around, but seem so expensive. Are there any alternatives out there, or are they pretty much untouchable? And what about these cable kits you can buy? Ive heard theyre prone to coming loose, but its a big plus to be able to make all cables to personal size. Im still stuck with my cheapo cables from years ago, y'know, those nice brightly coloured ones.. I need some better ones a.s.a.p. but im looking around for the best options. Ive got quite a large pedalboard too, so lots of cables = lots of money. Damn it.

This pedal is buggered. I was conned into it a bit, as i bought it second hand and couldnt get a refund or send it back. My fault for being careless when buying.. Anyway, theres pretty much no sound or response coming from this pedal. When the sensitivity and range knobs are turned up full, and i really attack my strings, you can kind of hear the effect before it dies out straight away. Apart from that, theres just nothing coming out of this pedal. Any ideas whats wrong? Also, what kind of price range would i be looking at to get this repaired?

I had a Behringer combo that i used just for home use, got it yonks ago due to limited budget. I had exactly the same problem with too much sub and a really muddy sound. Its just Behringer i guess. You get what you pay for.

Thanks for the quick reply. Yeah I'd rather be safe than sorry. Guess I'll be looking for another power supply then.

I was just wondering if you can damage a pedal by using a higher/lower voltage? Basically, I have a some spare 18v outputs on my power supply, and wanted to know if I could run 9v pedals through them or not? Just thought I'd check cus I dont wanna cause any damage or anything. Thanks in advance.

Well, this is my first post on these forums. Im looking for advice on pedalboard size. Im pretty sure I want a Pedaltrain board for the neatness, but im unsure whether its worth going for the pro or not. Reviews say the pedaltrain-2 can hold around 12 pedals, but looking at other peoples boards here im not quite sure. I have 5 normal sized stomp boxes, 3 bigger ones, and a wah. Im also looking to add a couple of pedals in the upcoming future, and im unsure whether the pedaltrain-2 will hold all these. Is it worth going for a Pro or can i get away with the smaller one?
