There's been quite a lot written on other forums about these which might be worth a look if you want to see what the deal was it's three are. The drive is derived from the SCR-DI which I absolutely love. Thinking about moving on my MXR M80 and my Pork Loin for one

Yes! My main bass is a Rickenbacker 4003 with flats I'm just so used to the feel and sound and how to work with it that I don't often even want for anything else. Played a Fender American Elite jazz bass recently and bloody hell! I don't often like jazz's, I usually don't like round and I don't usually like active basses but it just felt and sounded amazing!

Yes the weak pound is causing everyone trouble but the industry is just as much to blame. Within days of the "brexit" result many manufacturers and distributors increased their prices by around £20 to the trade. This in some cases left some major brands with less than a 10% profit to the retailer. This then resulted in some smaller retailers losing the dealerships on key brands simply because they were unwilllimg or unable to buy the stock at the increased price to make less money. This is one instance where the retailer as the middle man has come off worse. In the rest of the cases the retailer than been instructed by the distribtors new RRP/SSP's which is what is to blame for the silly prices of products and how everyone in this topic feels (which is mirrrored by myself). Less stuff is generally being bought and we all just sit and scratch our heads at £250-£250+ pedals, which is madness. But this is only retailers following instructions on SSP's as part of their agreement. I think brands are generally getting greedy. This was evident with pickups at one point too. Not long ago Seymour Duncan would have been the logical upgrade then other "boutique" companies come along and offer lots of options and a cool brand and very quickly escalate to the same price point. Now every small business making pickups feels they can charge top money. Pedals is clearly going the same way. Most starting points are absolute madness which is why Magnetic and Raygun FX are rarities in value and quality against the over inflation of everything else. Just ranting!

I did at one point play (unplugged) an old one that belonged to Mogwai and currently The Twiglight Sad. Didn't feel like anything special to be honest. The weight is striking as is the cold. The cutaways felt massive (the difference between a Rickenbacker 330 to a Gibson 335 is an example). I too am a big fan of them and would quite fancy one but certainly don't think they are worth the persuit. Saying that, seeing the way the market is going, you're not gonna lose money. Hope this helps

Hello. Sent you a PM

I can't fault the sound of mine. It was completely the missing part to the puzzle after failed attempts with Ashdown and Ampeg. So much of a thicker, fuller tone to it. Got mine second hand and had no previous issues so please don't let me put you off picking one up if you can

Absolute legend sir. Thanks very much!

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone call help me out with the service manual/ wiring diagram for an orange terror bass 500. Mine died the the week and orange haven't been useful in supplying one at all. Can't find it on google or anything. Thanks in advance! Cheers!

Hello. I have the M80 (DI+) but have never used the M81 (bass preamp). Because of the sweep mids on the M81 you could probably get it very close to all the sounds available on the M80 and more but not the other way around. That being said the things I find very very usable on the M80 is the colour switch which is kind of a 'make it sound a bit like a Sansamp/ stop it sounding a bit like a sansamp' switch. It also has the distortion channel which because it has the " colour" always on you can use it simply as an EQ change as well as a clean boots in addition to the heavy mid scoop distortion (with clean blend) on offer. You can also take three outputs from it if you want an affected and unaffected signal to desk while still going to an amp. Hope this helps

Rickenbacker 4003 (with flats) Boss TU2- Way Huge Pork Loin- Way Huge Swollen Pickle - EHX Freeze- Boss DD3- MXR M80 Orange TB500- Matamp 410 Usually send DI post from amp but use board if I need to. Have a second pork loin in the bag if I fancy stacking gain. Delay after freeze for causing madness.

Hope you guys enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/fortythousandagainstthearctic/a-generation-of-good-fathers-live-20-8-16
