Will have to let you know! Just had a lucky Ebay win - put in a stupidly low offer which, against all expectations, was accepted! Been a long time user of the Micro POG and Whammy for their octave up, but they've always been very digital sounding. Will be interested to try this out when it arrives.

Hey guys, coordinated with James and pinged off a load of photos to Bass Guitar Magazine HQ. No word back yet, but as soon as I hear back I'll let you know whats going on!

Excellent stuff guys! Keep it going!

Gig went really well tonight! Will post pics tomorrow when ive got time. However, for future users of the Baton some tips: It may need some TLC at points - nearly lost a knob tonight, and you dont want to do that! The bass is quite quiet - may need a volume boost compared to your normal one. Night all!

Its Relay day!

Well, we liked Threesecondrule, but that was taken, as was Fivesecondrule and Tensecondrule. So we changed it to Threesecondfool and it stuck.

We had weeks of emails flying back and forth. I think eventually we all just got tired of it, so the first thing that somebody suggested that we didn't hate was the one that stuck!

Welcome Dave! Hope you enjoy the community! Have to say, love Dallas - went out there about 10 years ago for a friend's wedding. Keep an eye out for Mike Gomez from RoomFour and say hi from me! Hows the gigging scene out there now?

[quote name='future_boy' timestamp='1361465196' post='1986133'] I've joined up now, and all set to take part on Saturday. [/quote] Sweet, welcome to the community!

Yeah, the 5th/oct up harmony is quite a tempting setting. It's more the ease of having the mode-change switch built in. I like the whammy setup, but might have to look into some of the other pitch shifters out there.

Hi guys, anyone got experience with using one of these in a proper band setting? I've wanted to get a bass whammy for some time, but with the crazy prices they can go for I decided I'm not [u]that[/u] much of a Tool fan-boy, and stuck with the Whammy IV. However, had a bad experience with an XP-100 with an Ebay purchase a while back. Won one for super-cheap price, which was awesome, but was underwhelmed by the tone of it compared to my Whammy IV. So, didn't really spend much time with it before selling it on. Bad news was that the guy I sold it too immediately opened the thing up and found that whoever had owned it before had tried to re-wire the thing (?!?!), and complained back to me. Fortunately, it didn't go any further than that, but I don't feel that I really got the best demo of the pedal that I could have. Anyone else got a better view on this pedal?

We may convince him to join up here yet, but i'll keep the shirt separate in case! Still get him to sign the gig diary i presume?

Already suggested ;-)

Good news everyone! Our headlining bassist for saturday is up for this too! The Baton may get two outings in one night!

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1361379363' post='1985053'] Fair point, if you're in it for the money. [/quote] Money? You can earn money from music?!?!?

I knackered my fingers long ago trying to play too fast. Started playing with a pick till they got better. Now I alternate and pretty much play 50/50 fingers/pick.

Their band is called Dead Horizon. That I can see, the bassist isn't here on BC, but you never know...
