I use badass bridges but I like the look of that.

BB Preamp might be worth a punt

A toss up between Motorhead at the De Mont in Leicester (approx 2013) and Dinosaur Jr at Krammerock in Belgium (probably 2013 also.) Saw Motorhead for my last time at Glastonbury 2015 where Lemmy was kind of on his last legs and sang 'Ace of Spades' lyrics during 'Overkill.' It was far from the best that I've seen them but by God it was memorable. Also painfully loud, even for outdoors at Glastonbury.

Thanks! Yeah the Super Russian absolutely slays. It's great that it has the switch for flat mids.

Been putting off redoing my board for a few weeks since I couldn't seem to find a Soldgold Beta DLX in the UK but after receiving one from @NAS Bass this morning I found the motivation to do it this afternoon. Still like the Ernie Ball flat patch cables and Itried to keep everything as neat as possible with some of those cable hooks recommended a few pages back. Pretty pleased with the results overall.

I know this thread is mainly about pedals but what bass is being used? P Bass with flats or I dunno... Dingwall with coated steel rounds? A set of strings is probably cheaper and more effective than a new pedal.

I've sort of done this but I tried using a Darkglass Vintage Ultra and I couldn't really get it to work. I play in a rock band but at home I enjoy playing along to the likes of Al Green and Motown. Ultimately, I found the Darkglass a bit clinical but with a fizzy top end (if that makes sense.) I ended up going for a Tech 21 vtdi and feel this covers all my needs right now. I use a P with flats and this really adds some beef. A lot of the time I practice at home with headphones and having this before the interface is a godsend.

A novel idea but not sure how things will pan out in reality. Think it might be a bit of pain keeping the underside tidy! Also quite expensive. https://guitar.com/news/gear-news/d-addario-new-2021-pedalboard-system-expanding-xpnd/

Seems a bit much. Most recent big box models sold on eBay went for £325, £510, £540, £588. I paid 200 odd for my Diamond and I think even that was a bit much.

To paraphrase the great Mike Watt: "When you go into a bathroom, most people look at the tile. Bass is like the grout."

Yeah, weird. Could be more pronounced as the rotos are round wounds. Could be a dodgy string though.

I've experienced this with fresh sets of d'addario chromes. Went away after about an hour of playing and getting the string the settle in.

American original? Looks good 👍

Don't think I've posted in this thread. Google photo on my phone has an 'on this day' feature and today is the 3 year anniversary of this rig. Haven't got the Mustang any more though.

Didn't realise how old and knackered my Grolsch ones had become. I soaked them in hot water for a couple of minutes to loosen them up as they were a properly tight fit. Before and after:

Changed amps to an ABM 600 and since I like the on-board compressor, sub and drive I thought it'd be rude not to get the footswitch for it and do away with a few pedals and update the board. Bit of work in progress but I thought I'd take a snap while there was some daylight still. Super Russian and the BB Pre run in a loop from the LS-2 so I can have a nice dry/wet blend as I'm always conscious of the bottom end being sucked away by distortion pedals. Trying to keep it simple (stupid!)

Sorry, didn't realise I was being controversial 😂

Re Ashdown + Barefaced, I'm using an ABM600 IV and a barefaced six10 but I'm thinking of either selling the six10 or doing a trade for a supertwin. The six10 is just a bit big. Any thoughts?

Thought I'd posted in this thread but obviously not. Roadworn P that I've came to love. Think the initial factory relicing is a bit fake but it's picked up lots of organic knocks and wear that blend together nicely.

Can't find anything on it. Maybe there's only a couple in existence.

This version of the abuelo also exists.

Really like these, wish they came as a cheaper production model.
