    A couple of years ago I had the privilege to visit the control room of Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios. What should I see in the rack but a special edition pink-panel Sansamp PSA-1. I'm told it gets a fair bit of use...

    I’m thinking overkill!

    Also a GED2112 in the classifieds.

    You're welcome!

    Looks like that works with the MS50G and MS60B pedals. I have the G model and it would be handy to have a couple of bass amp models in there too without having to spring for another pedal. Unfortunately it seems to be Windows only As to the G11, the red pedals on black look gopping!

    I had a look at the manual on Tech 21’s website and among the suggested settings are ‘SVT’, ‘Bassman’ and ‘Slap’, all of which employ the gain set to the left of the dial. Whether those would match the sounds in your head I don’t know.

    Currently obsessed with this song:

    Emmylou Harris. One of the few people to cause me to cry tears of joy at a live show. She was performing with Rodney Crowell and they sang Pancho and Lefty.

    The sheet music is written as 6/8 with the instrumental links alternating 6/8 and 7/8 (making 13/8 if you like).

    Plenty of love - if you want a PJ, this is the one to get! GLWTS

    I try not to dwell on missing gigs. Instead I have been using the extra time to learn keyboards and work on my guitar and bass playing. I've also built a pedal and an amp, and have started to re-work an earlier amp build. My day job pays for all the boring stuff, gig money buys musical toys. Without the gig income, I have had to be a bit stricter with myself i.e. one-in-on-out - it's probably not a bad thing!

    A loudspeaker is a transducer. It converts the electrical waves coming from your amp into more--or-less* equivalent compression waves in the air. *More = hi-fi, FRFR etc; less = 'coloured'; very much less = crap sound.

    Midweek bump.

    Valvey loveliness bump.

    Works for me!

    This would make an interesting blind test at a bass bash - same bass and head through a variety of speaker configurations, preferably using the same driver 'family'.

    I forgot they existed! I had a Sessionette guitar combo, sounded brilliant if you combined the clean and dirty channels.
  19. JapanAxe
    Yeah I like Tech 21 stuff.

    Although there's a huge industry around stomp boxes, does anyone prefer the effects that are built into their amp? I had a TC Classic a while back and I really liked the compression and drive effects. Obviously there's now all the Toneprint options, plus quite a few heads with compression or limiting, not to mention chorus on some of the old Peaveys. So what say you Basschatters, do these onboard jobbies pass muster, or has it got to be a little box on the floor?

    Thanks @CameronJ

    The wheels on the Super Twin are great on indoor flooring but I avoid using them outdoors on anything other than smooth tarmac - just too much bashing/vibration, and I don't think they'd last very long at all on cobbles!
  23. JapanAxe
    Super Twin with a 50W valve head into it is loud!
  24. JapanAxe
    Yeah the Afterburner I tried had a standard (treble roll-off) tone control. My Super PZ5 scoops the mids (passively) after the mid-point on the tone control.

    Happy NBD from a fellow Dingwaller. Are the controls Volume, Tone, P/U Selector? And is the tone the regular sort, or does it cut mids when turned past a notch at the mid point?
